A long week...

"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers."

It was an extremely long week.
So many of us ended up sick, or were feeling sick.
My Father was extremely stressed.
My Mother has been sick.
There has been a lot of laughs, and a lot of tears, as well as a few arguments, we are not perfect.
I hope this weekend will be better.
I'm looking forward to it.


Our Tio came to visit us. It was such a surprise. He sat in the rode and honked a few times, my Father was frustrated with it and went to look out the front window. At the same time he was saying "Is someone supposed to be leaving?! Who is honking?!... Oh it's Damian."


"Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein."

Home at last.

My Mother was able to be escorted home by my Father around 3:15 this afternoon.
She has a fever, and may be coming down with the flu, sadly.
She is someone to me, that if she cries, it makes me want to cry.
And if she's in pain, I want to do something about it because I can't stand to see her hurt.
Seems as though she rested all afternoon, but she did get the chance to eat dinner with my Father.
Yes, it is obvious she is still herself because as I type she is sleeping on the couch... And her movie is still running.
She is never able to sit through a whole movie.
She either gets too busy and runs off, leaving it playing.
Or falls asleep.
I love her.
It is so nice to have my Mother back home.
And it was so great to see my Daddy-o.
I love him so much. He has been a huge help.
He is way stressed, and I hope us children can help with that.

Thank you to everyone who has helped to feed us!!
For 3 nights people brought by dinner.
It was so sweet and so generous.
Thank you for your support!
The whole family appreciates it!!!
