Letters for my Children to read

This blog is for my children to read in order to understand how I feel, even if I don't have a chance to share it with them because of the divorce and the fact that we do not live in the same house. When they are older I plan on sharing the fact that this blog is for them. I do not plan on using any details that would identify them.

Having dinner together last night


at your favorite Mexican restaurant with your brothers and your boyfriend J.

I was proud to see you order your food in Spanish.

When the conversation turned into favorite memories.. the first topic was my "Yah's!
My too often used comment when you guys were younger, that was supposed to both signify " I had enough" and "pay attention" and "be still".

The other memories of your brother biting and all of you coming back from extended stays in Colombia and not speaking a word of English and teasing your older brother.

It was a great time just listening to how the versions of what actually happened has changed over the years and How I remember things is not always the exact truth but pretty close...
