The last ten years have been such a delightful decade. I dedicated my whole self to this amazing adventure of being a mom. I invented so many days with special activities for my three girls: a craft, a trip to the museum or to a farm. A special meal, baking days, library trips, playgroups and play dates. We had wonderful family vacations and also nothingness days for doing nothing special just being with each other. They learned to walk and to talk, to count, to write, to read, to jump rope, to swim, to take turns, and to be good sisters among other things. I learned to love them just the way they're, to love me just the way I'm. I also learned to be patient, to listen, to think before I speak, and to be playful too. We arranged for private times... the list of things we did can go on and on. It's not like I'm done with it, it's just that today is beginning of a new episode in my life. My three girls are school-age kids now, and for the first time in ten years I'm home alone.
It's so quiet here...
I specially want to say thank him, for being such an amazing partner, and a wonderful father, and for never opposing to my decision of being a stay home mom.
Se me puso ojo Remi....

I know... it's so weird to be alone after being with your kids for so long. At first I didn't know what to do with myself. Now that I've adjusted and LOVE having "me" time, it's all going to change again! Enjoy this time... time to explore... do "me" activities... SEW!!!
OH and BTW... you and your partner a great looking couple! Thank God for the awesome men in our lives!!!
