Dedicating our girls & A Few recent photos by Marvin Garay

Today we had a Dedication service for Naomi & Nicole attended by many friends & family. My brother-in-law Pup Nelson officiated the service. It was very special for me that Pup participated in the service, as he invited me to Mexico in the first place 10 summers ago. He baptized me & co-officiated our wedding, so it was very fitting to have him & my sister Anastasia here along with most of Ana's family.

We feel so blessed and privileged to be Naomi & Nicole's parents, and in a week like this one, when Pup's team has been building a home for a similar family with two young children though both have many physical needs, we are reminded of how fortunate we are to have two healthy girls.

There are so many unknown reasons why one family would have two healthy children and another family would have two precious children with multiple special needs.

Both of us families surely love our kids equally. And as we continue in our journey as parents I hope we will always remember to cherish each moment we have with our princesses.

I love you Naomi & Nicole. You are my treasure:)
