1.Her acceptance of me
2.The way she listens
3.Showing me how to give
4.Seeing her never give up on a worthy cause – namely my grandparents :)
5.Watching her navigate the internet against her instincts of what it means to cut and paste
6.Watching her thrive in a corporate environment (traveling for business in your 60’s – who knew!?!)
7.Her ability to love then aim
8.Seeing me as if I were five (ok this one also drives me crazy) :)
9.Being there for the ‘exciting news’ call
10.Making the words mom and home synonymous
Pedro, Thank you for all your help and support over the years. I know you wish you could do more sometimes but you have done more than enough already. I love you both
This is a shout out to the best mother I could ask for. One who has supported me through adolescence, teendom, marriage, divorce, cancer, career turmoil, and last but not least.....almost a mid-life crisis:) Love you Mom
