Abuelita turns 60!

On a Jan 25, six decades ago, and on a not-so-cold-or-snowy-or-windy day like today, my wonderful Mom was born. Little did she know she would later become a loving mother, our biggest cheerleader, a great example of tenacity and work ethic, and of course, a super loving grandma. 

Although she is not big on celebrations, and didn't want to do anything fancy, we did get together for dinner and for our traditional cake cutting. It made me happy to see her happy surrounded by her family, and that we didn't let the special milestone go unnoticed. 

Next week she is going to Miami with Gabi and me, so we are making the trip her birthday gift.
