My Mexican Family

I feel so very privileged to have met Alejandro's family, to have spent time in their home, and to have participated in family events.  In fact his mother told me that I am a part of the family... something which frankly brought tears to my eyes.

Last Sunday Alejandro took me over to his parents' home, and we celebrated his mother's eightieth birthday.  Her birthday was actually just before my arrival, and the family had already celebrated the occasion.  But at that at milestone, I think that she deserves two cakes, and having "Las Mañanitas" sung to her twice.
