baby steps
Yesterday Saturday April 19th, at about 8:45pm, little Franklin dragged himself toward the sofa and pulled himself up to his feet, I just about fell with pride. He is growing up so fast. He continues to smile nonstop and make all of us so happy. No teeth are in but I think soon. He still doesn't sleep through the night, so I get up looking like a mop head every morning.

Mi Mari
Maria Isabel Castro, is by far one of my greatest role models. She is a powerful woman. I love that she doesnt give up eventhough she get hits hard in life. She has a college degree and a beautiful young son...Nicolas and he is the smartest kid ever. He has a great imagination and loves Power Rangers...who doesnt? they are way cool! I am excited to go visit and play with Nico.
Mr. Adam
Yesterday was my official bday...I have about 3 birthdays thanks to the unexcellent recordkeeping of my lovely motherland....and human forgetfulness. According to Chali, she swears that I arrived in this world on Feb 16, 1975 but my mom says I was born on the 18th of Feb. The story goes that I was registered in the city records 2 months later because mom didn't have the money when I was originally born, I guess she would have had an extra fine if she registered me late, so to save money my birth certificate says I was born in April the 16th....I am so confused!!! The cool thing is that I have a unique birthday, one thing is for sure, I was born and I am here, how's that?
Yesterday I received calls from: Danielito, Martincin, Nach, beautiful Mom and Awesome Mari and finally Adan and his wife Mari. Adan's call was specially amusing because he serenated my "birthday" with a typical mexican birthday song "las mananitas" with a wonderful vibrato, Pedro Infante style! Bravo Adan, Bravo!!! However I did receive a little chastisement from my wise brother, he said he felt left out of the brag-fest. I reassured him his turn would come soon, and soon is NOW...
ADAN....
Adan is best described as "the wind beneath my wings" well, pretending I were a bird...but in all seriousness, Adam is very very inspiring. When I lived in Salt Lake, on my own, his letters and phone calls were my edifying juice.
One of my favorite memories of this great person is when we lived in Stockton Califas, Maria and I were squawking about contacts lenses and we were pretty angry with eachother, we were yelling at the top of our voices, about to start the punches and scratches, Adan got a hold of us and gave us a really touching advice. He said, something like " you are eachother's family, no one will love you or look out for you as yourselves, if you are 'biting' eachother, expect worse from the world" something like that. Adan is:
Wise
Loving
Super good looking
Responsible
oh and an amazing amazing Artist.
I am really proud of him and his accomplishments. Good job Adam, and his has the cutest children in all of Tucson...ok all of the southwest! He's been married for 6.5 years to lovely Maria de los Angeles. That is her name, she is not from LA she is from Jalisco, like us and she is truly a cool girl!
