I cannot think of a more deserving family! I have had the privilege of teaching 3 out of the 6 Lopez children and they are amazing! Aside from being very good in school, they all have a personality a mile wide! They made my classroom so much more inviting! Victoria is a great mother. Her and her children deserve all the blessings and happiness in the world!
