Happy Birthday!

Dear Robyn

3 years ago, you changed my life forever.

For starters, I haven't had a decent sleep ever since that fateful morning (You're still breastfeeding specially at night). I haven't been able to run my business without interruption every few minutes. It felt like I was handed a tenured, 24/7, all around job, which I have no experience on. It was...









the greatest change that ever happened in my entire life!

3 years ago, I lost the liberty to do a lot of things but I gained the privilege to be your mom.

Happy birthday, babe. Daddy and I love you so much. Our whole family loves you. You brought us immense joy when you were born and you never fail to put a smile on our face everyday. I will forever be thankful for you.

Man's Best Friend

Dear Robyn,

Consider having a pet. They're a great companion. 

When I was suffering from a painful heartbreak and was embarrassed to talk to anybody, I go to my room and talk to Al, my pet cat. He would just sit on my lap, listen and let out a "meow". He helped me survive the heartbreak and other low points in my life.

Sexy, our dog, never left Mama Luz's side (literally!) when she got sick. When Mama got home after her surgery, Sexy started acting strangely. She became unusually protective of her. I don't know if she smelled blood from Mama's wound but since then, she wouldn't stop barking and scratching the bedroom door until we let her sleep by her bed.

I hope you find your own faithful pet.
