The Ortiz Family
An only child who became a mother of 4
Our story
I grew up outside of Austin in Lytton springs. I’ve always loved cows and horses and really all animals. My dad has a ton of cattle at the ranch where I grew up. The cows and bulls are the gentlest you’ll ever meet. I love it there. The moos and peace of being in the country. Now I am a mom of 4, 3 boys and 1 girl. My oldest son spends any free time he has on the ranch with my dad. Once a little older I know he will show his brothers the ways and how much work it takes to take care of a ranch. Being an only child to watching my 4 heartbeats has been my biggest blessing. They keep me going. I’d do anything for them. The love they have for each other makes my life complete.
What the weekend would mean to us
It would be amazing. No place I’d rather be. Especially after just having a baby. It would truly be something special for me!
