Lesson from my Mom: Community Responsibility

05/10/14
Of the many lessons my mom taught me, the most lasting is this: because we had good health, food to eat, and a roof over our heads, we had a responsibility to be thankful and to give back to our community, especially the poor, disabled and elderly. I don't remember her saying "to whom much is given...

Mi Mamá Siempre Puso a Sus Hijos Primero

05/10/14
Mi mamá y yo no siempre hemos estado de acuerdo en muchas cosas. De hecho, cuando era más joven, nos peleábamos mucho. Ahora aprecio y agradezco todo lo que hizo por mí, porque me doy cuenta lo difícil que es ser madre. Mi mamá me enseñó que la parte más importante que voy a tener en mi vida es el...

Since Becoming A Mom

05/09/14
Since becoming a mom, I've learned the importance of drinking. Being a parent is hard. So hard that it makes me question evolution.

My mom taught me how to be tough

05/09/14
My mom taught me how to be tough. Not tough in the way we usually think of the word “tough,” you know what I mean, bleeding from the head, walk it off, fistfight on the school bus, that sort of thing.

My mom taught me to love words
