Sitting around tonight chatting with Addisun, looking at facebook photos of our families. She is from Oklahoma and always reminds me of my family. Especially my cousin Becky, they are both so cute and Oklahoma. I am listening to Willie Nelson and relaxing.
Last night we went to my school Festa Julina party, it was so much fun and for so many reasons. One that comes to mind was the Festa Junina dance which everyone dances. The whole party! At home, when there was dancing there was always a large crowd watching the dancers and a smaller crowd dancing. I actually said I would watch until I realized it would have been me and 2 other people. So, I grabbed Gabi and we met Bernard and danced. What a beautiful time, I danced with Gabi all night. Bernard is very independent and would never dance with me... never. I wanted this so so much. Well last night my prayers were answered, the laughs and love in Gabi's eyes when we were dancing was enough to melt my heart. I was holding Gabi and also dancing with Ben during the main song. It was a dream come true. I didnt care about anything last night except dancing with my kids and sharing this time with them, it was as if all I was ever looking for was finally right in front of my eyes. What a beautiful new stage in my life. Truth is...I am actually starting to really like it here. It is nice to smell the roses...it has just been too long.
