Back in 1986, when I was around 11 years old, I remember getting a letter in the mail from one of my cousins in Mexico. Most of my mom’s family still lives in this small town called Tulancingo in the city of Hidalgo, Mexico, which is where I was born and lived until about age 2. (Tulancingo… Continue reading Mr. Postman, Is there a letter for me?
So I’ve decided to start seeing a therapist. That sounds so official, like I’ve entered into a new relationship, lol…well in a way I guess I have. Okay, momentary pause so that my friends/family who may (or may not) be reading this can take in the fact that yes, I did just say, I’m seeing… Continue reading Project Therapy
Among the many things that I enjoy doing with my husband, one of my favorites and top of the list is going to church together. We’ve been going to Parkcrest Christian Church together since 2006 (a few months after we started dating) and it’s a connection we share that has become a very important part of… Continue reading Show Genuine Interest
“The most beautiful curve on a woman’s body is her smile” I read that quote on a Facebook post the other day, and how appropriate that I happened to remember it yesterday as I stood in front of the mirror at the Macy’s department store, the swim suit department no less, and tried on what… Continue reading There is a swim suit out there with my name on it!
I felt such a need just now to get on here and write. Like when your body is thirsty for water and can’t wait to be satiated. It’s been a week of exciting milestones that I can’t wait to share. So if you’re ready for some baby stories, sit back, relax, and enjoy. Our little girl is… Continue reading Milestones and New Experiences
It’s been such a lovely day today, relaxing and filled with delightful moments. A year ago I didn’t even know I was pregnant and now here I am today welcoming my 37th year with my husband and little baby girl. I woke up this morning to find these beautiful orange tulips with a balloon and a… Continue reading Hello 37…
Today was filled with a whole bunch of lovely moments. My day started off with one of my favorite things…my husband and I saying a prayer together before starting a new day. For me this has always been one of the best ways to start off my day. I love when it’s dark in the… Continue reading Love is in the little things
We’re off to El Morro Park for our first family hike with baby Celeste!! It’s such a beautiful and sunny day in CA, plus we haven’t been on a hike together since we found out I was pregnant, maybe even a little bit before then so its been about a year. I’m so excited because… Continue reading First Hike
This post is for my husband. I was watching the movie Julie and Julia the other day, well at least parts of it here and there because it’s a lot harder to watch a full movie now that we have a little baby. One of my favorite lines of the entire movie was something that Paul Child said… Continue reading Butter To My Bread
One of my favorite things this time of year is seeing the Christmas lights on people’s homes, especially when it’s the traditional standard colored lights because they take me back to the early 80’s and so many wonderful memories of Christmas with my parents. There’s something so comforting about tradition, and as I was walking Biggie around… Continue reading Christmas Memories
