You know Oprah Winfrey's mom gave up one of her daughters for adoption and it got me
thinking, well that and alot of other things, but anyway. A mom, is a mom is a mom and a mom
will only do what she knows. A person can only be who they are. I felt bad for Patricia when her
mom denied her but then I thought, wow, it must really take a lot, and I mean a whole heck of a lot
to give up your child for adoption. Oprah's mom is who I'm referencing here. So anyway, it's the
most amazing ride ever! I promise you that. Tonight I slowdanced with Max in the kitchen while I
was cooking dinner cause a song came on about bringing her home and it was about a dad
bringing his daughter home and right after the song "With arms wide open" by Creed played,
that song always got to me when I was pregnant. I feel like you just are never really ready but like
you said it's all worth it. I feel so blessed that Max chose me to be his mom and everyday I thank
the Lord. I'm sure Max had his reason for
choosing me and his dad, I don't know if I will ever know the reasons I just know I need to be the
best mother to him, I can be. Again, it's hard but so worth it and so rewarding.
Breastfeeding is the best thing to do and it isn't easy so if you could find a support group or take
a class or two, that would be helpful. It's new to you and to the baby so you have to be patient.
And if it's done right , it does NOT hurt. Trust me. Max is so strong and smart and healthy and I
attribute lots of that to the nursing. I still nurse and intend to nurse until I can - 3 years is my target
but if he wants to stop at two, I will be fine with that.
See if there are some programs for latina moms who are going to school to help
supplement your income. There has to be, this Obama administration is all about healthcare and
mommy's.
I love you and want you to enjoy every moment. Breathe deep and stay present because what
you are currently experiencing is an enormous miracle.
You are beautiful and I love you.
hugs.
FOOTNOTE:
We weren't talking about adoption at all, I was talking about motherhood.
Namaste!

Morning Brainstorm: 3-2-1 ACTION!
Have you ever had a Bento Box lunch?
Have you ever seen the show Herman's Head?
I'm giving you a polaroid of my brain and how it works, most of the time.
In my brain the thoughts are compartmentalized like a Bento Box and when I begin to share my thoughts it all turns into a party like the short lived 80's sitcom called, 'Herman's Head.'
I woke up this morning and thought to my self:

"It's Wednesday, gotta pick up Kayla, oh how, I love Wednesdays almost as much as I love Kayla. I crack myself up. Wait, what time is it? Should I even be up? Max is here and Jorge is here so it can't be past 7:30 or 8:00 am. This whole turn the clock back or turn the clock ahead just makes me nuts but days after it happens not on the day after it happens. Did I change the time in my car or on the microwave. I will call Mio today and talk about what I started yesterday when she was at the Hall of Science, wow, I've not been to the Hall of Science for over a year. I've got to get Max to Flushing Meadows park to take pictures by the unisphere. It was so cool to grow up in Corona, so close to the park, I don't think we took advantage of that as we should have. Corona, I don't like beer. Beer makes me sick. Come to think of it that ham and cheese sandwich I had made me a bit queasy. I love food but not when it sickens me! I do remember my mouth and belly were very satiated with that amazing appetizer at PO this weekend. Funny how we parked right outside the location where I told Yindy and Ryan that I was expecting, what a sweet dinner we had that day. The GPS in the truck did not get us to PO it was absolutely the GPS on the iPhone. Sometimes I wish I had an iPhone. I could use that locator app, the one the lady invented, the lady I met at the Senator Gillibrand Financial Empowerment summit for ladies, that was such an amazing event. It was inspiring. I need to confirm my mentor and write down who my character role models are and their characteristics/traits. Latina Females, who do I know, who do I want to know? It was so cool to see Annie and her folks this weekend at that play. Immigration, what a traumatic thing. Thing, is it a thing? Can I call it an event..."
AAAAHHHH, Yawn Stretch! Up and out of bed and wow it's only 7:27 am, I have to brush, pee and get back to bed!
Namaste!
