28

11/11/11 .
How does it feel to be 28...Weird, but not as weird as to the realization that I am 28 and have 3 kids under the age of 4, Am married to the sweeties gringo in the world, live thousands of miles away from the place I used to call home.
I still remember 10 years ago I made sure I made some photographic memories of where I was, what I was doing and what my plans where for the future. So here is what Gaby though 10 years ago:

1.- Finish all my test and graduate from high school
2.- Take my final test from my English class and graduate from that as well
3.- Keep working in the in the theater production with the Lyric Society from Spain
4.- Get ready to become a NUN ( that's right )

Having this thoughts on mind, seeing what has become of me and where I am in life is a total blessing from beginning to end, not to mention I am glad I never became a nun
I am grateful for another year of life to enjoy and cherish with my family, for the memories that I have created and for those that are still to come.
Never, not even in my wildest dreams did I ever think life could be this sweet. Thanks Spencer, Julia, Josh, A.D. and to all my family for making it so.
Spencer surprise me with some must needed things, like a purse and my favorite perfume. I've been dying to get new ones of these for ages, but never got to do it.
Little to say I was delighted when I opened my presents.
Thanks to my mom I was able to go shopping for cloths. I haven't done that forever and let me tell you it felt glorious.
Julia came along with me. She is a great shopper and has good taste for her short 4 years. She kept me on check
Later that day Spencer and I had an evening to ourselves and had dinner together..NO KIDS!!
Of course by the end of the day I was missing my three little cuties.
What a better ending for a great day than to have cake and ice cream.

Thanks Spencer for making this day so special for me.

So much fun. I can't believe that you were thinking about becoming a Nun, because you are such an awesome and natural mom. I'm so glad that you are where you are. Love you guys!
