TO THE MOVIES!

Last time I went to the movies was the next day I discovered Valentina was on the way. I never thought I had to wait for more than 5 years to sit on an armchair again. Not even thinking it had to be a movie for children. But it was, and the chose one was: Toy Story 3.
You go back in time. You have memories and you think of your toys as relatives or friend you haven't seen in years and you wonder how they are? where thay are? Fortunatelly I'm quite lucky to have more than one of those "friend in me" near me. At least I know where they are. What I don't know is how to find the magic...it's gone. It's when you get up to play with them but nothing happened, it's not the same..and that's called: growing up. The nice thing: when you have children that magic comes back to you. That's how it happened now. When we came bach from the movies Valentina ran to hug her doll, the one that looks like a baby. She hug her and she said she wanted to take care of her forever. And then Jano gave her a pseudo preach: the importance of keeping the toys and take care of them. And maybe the story will be born again in her and her little brother. Now Pity, which is how she calls the doll, sleeps with her, eats with her and even listens to her. And while I see her I feel happy to know that many of my called "friends in me" are still there. Not in Andy's attic...but in ours.

SPARE TIME...(WHAT'S THAT?)


It's unbelievable I'm back. Lots of thing have happened. But you know...motherhood, most of the time doesn't allow me to keep on with my blog, the one I have called "my personal relief". Anyhow..I've made it. Here I am again. I just hope not to last to write again. It makes me feel good.

So many changes in our lives lately. The earthquake...but , who didn't suffer?? I'm not talking about that againg because all of us know what happened. And we all know the pain and everything.

I'm back!!! to laught at some ridicolous celebrity, or get emotional of some children cases, or maybe a puppy. The important thing now is that I'm trying to focus my "necessities" and duties, as a woman, mother, wife, etc. and having this relief and write of whatever I want to as it has always been..and will be.

THE END OF A DECADE


10 years. What could possibly happen in ten years? wow...so many things I don't know how to begin. Anyway, at the beginning of this deacade i made the achievement of my life: to travel to Spain and meet my family.Why should I have to tell you the details? everybody knows we had a lot of fun there and everybody has seen the pictures.Also, during this decade Alejandor and I bought our house. We decided to live here because we loved this neighborhood and we have all sort of stores here. From a mall to movies. (going through a liquor store and bakery lol!).Years ago we also knew what missing a friend was like. Our dear Chavita, Rodrigo Alfaro left us in 2004, 5 years and a half already!...anyhow, during these 10 years we've has our ups and downs. Things that happen and really move you. Memories, etc.But, there is something else. The most important thing. During this decade Jano and I became parents. Parents of a couple of healhty and gorgeous kids.In a couple of days the new decade begins. With the thing I have achieved I am able to say that I'm looking forward it, willing to get everything it has to offer me. I believe and hope everything's good.Hey decade, you are as old as the oldest of my nieces. That's why I think I love you. I don't really think you're leaving us. I do believe you're growing.Hello 2010. You're closer. I'll be here. Waiting for you with a glass of champagne in my hand. As a dear friend should be expected when you want to welcome it.
