i miss hearing her laugh so much.  mom was modest and didn't like to interject too much for attention. she was polite, honest, caring, sad, hurt, and alone when we weren't around. i know because i stayed during my 20's while my other 5 siblings were out living their lives. i enjoyed that time together. didn't have to share her time and attention w/ my siblings. it was a good selfish time that i wouldn't trade for the world. she was my teacher, friend, mother, disciplinarian but all in love of course. RIP.  in Love.

Rest in peace mami, con mucho amor, Chica(daughter)

She use to love love love laughing at fact that I wrote our home address out on the whole side of the salvation army's camping bus. So when I was left off after camping one summer she thought it peculiar that the address was written out...
I said i wanted to make sure they got me home!!!
