Ways You Can Support 💜 Dear Friends, As I navigate some meaningful transitions this season, I’m reaching out with gratitude and humility. If you feel called to support, here are a few ways your kindness could truly help me and my little family right now: Help us get to León (August 14–21) so the kids and I can spend our birthday week together with loved ones. Contribute to our August rent — a little breathing room would mean a lot. Share resources or curriculum for advanced elementary studies — I’m homeschooling! Help me enroll in an advanced Spanish class. Support with vehicle tag renewal costs. Haircuts for the kiddos. New clothing for the little ones — they grow so fast! Help organizing and decluttering at home. Let me know if your address can be a reliable business address for LAPS correspondence.

One Month Away!

In one month, I get to marry the most loving person I've ever met in my lifetime! Juan Adrian Cardenas, thank you for loving me.   Te amo! I have been in bliss ever since I've met him...and I can't believe how well I could ever get along with another human being. This is a wonderful gift, and I hope all of humanity gets the opportunity to experience this. Dreams come true. You must NEVER give up on yourself.

Trials and Decades

In realizing that I have suffered 3 great tragedies, I found it odd that it seemed to represent the themes of each decade. I always sought harmony, family...(now at least found it in great friends). When I truly thought of all this, I affirmed that each of these tragedies created a triumph...simply because I am still here. I am still wound up and positive...moving forward. So, the three tragedies, in my eyes, can transform themselves into 3 different books. Or if not books, 3 sections of a book. It may be suitable that this book have 30 pages, but some topics take more time, some take more pain, and therefore cause more words to shed. I like that, words shed for tragedy lived. I think I have my title now.
