A BIG Person

 


This woman is a dear friend and exemplifies a deep core of goodness with a doze of happiness and contentment. It is a blessing that she is in my life...so that I may learn!

Shh...Baby!

 

My daughter was privileged to hold the new baby in the family. Truly....everyone assists in the daily care of the child. Siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents help the parents create a safe and loving environment for the baby. Each day many held, rocked (in hammocks) and offered gentle and sometimes lively songs to calm or stimulate and coo the little one through another day...what a wonderful loving existance. I cannot wait to watch this little angel grow through the years.

Walking Home

 

 


Whenever I crossed this bridge, a quiet audience watched me inch my way along stiff legged and barely breathing. Getting to the other side was always a relief. Gabrielle actually gave me pointers,"Ma, you carry all your weight back...bend your knees....breath!!!!" Richardo said, "Just run across. Get it over with!!!" As I write this...my breath is shallow...my stomach in knots. Silly huh??!!! The fear of hurling myself off this footbridge is real!!!!!!!!!
