The Ormeo Family & Photography

thankful for brotherly love. no matter how much siblings fight, they stick together. These 3 can drive me nuts sometimes with the non-sense sibling rivalry. But in the same moment take my breath away at how sweet they truly are to each other. You can’t even separate them without them reacting like it’s torture to [...]

thankful for an eager young chef. not only is he learning to one day cook for his own family, but he’s always eager to try the yummy stuff i’m too lazy to whip up myself! Oh Ethan has been whipping up little goodies for us every so often – more often than not. It’s nice [...]

thankful for speedy recoveries. kids are so resilient and bounce back without missing a beat. Today they finally closed up her g-tube stoma. She had it taken out back in October, but it never closed up on its own like it was supposed to. So every couple of weeks her ‘extra belly button’ would leak, [...]

{via kissesfromkatie} thankful for people that inspire us. they challenge our faith and growth. You have to check out this young lady, single mom with 14 children (yes you read that right, 14!). Wow is all I can say. What a testimony she brings and how awesome to see someone so young be so selfless [...]

“My best friend is Aiden. He is nice to me. I like to play wieth him. We by toys for each othr.” – Lizzie, 7 (Feb 2010) thankful for best friends. they like you for you, even when no one else does. We can learn so much from kids and how accepting they are of [...]

thankful for cousins. they can claim your BFF status even before you are old enough to know what it means. One of their Language/Writing assignments this week was to pick a person (proper nouns) and write a thank you note (handwriting). Before I could even give them ideas for people to write to, they already [...]

thankful for her joyful noise. what sounds like ‘quacking’ to others, is a joyful noise to her audience of One. She loves to sing. It doesn’t matter where she’s at or what she’s doing. she especially likes to rock out to praise and worship cd’s in the car and on her iPod. When all three [...]

thankful for cozy fires. keeps my family warm on the coldest of Florida nights, even provides a sweet indulgence! This past week or so has been so incredibly cold! I’m afraid to see our electric bill next month, esp since we can’t keep the emergency heat from kicking in. This 20 degree weather has been [...]

thankful for unexpected messages. meant for someone else, yet leaves you with warm-fuzzies. Last summer, we stumbled upon this at the beach during our Back 2 School Bash. Clearly left for someone else. Or was it? Maybe God was just leaving us a note
