Since March is Women’s History Month I thought I’d share with you some of the women who have made an impact in my life. For starters, the woman who gave me life, my mother Carmen. My mom was an absolutely amazing woman who was also a friend and mentor. She taught me so much and made me the woman I am today even though she’s been gone from my life for far longer than she was in it. But her spirit and determination live on in me, my sister, and her granddaughters. I think she would be very proud of all that we’ve accomplished. Thank you, mom.
These three photos represent my mom in various stages of her life. To the left is a picture of her as a toddler posing in traditional Galician garb. I believe the photo was taken in Spain during a visit there. The photo to the bottom left is my mom as a teenager. The photo to the upper right is my mom on her wedding day. So beautiful! I miss her every day.
