Mexican Mother's Day




Yesterday was Mexican Mother's Day, it always falls on the same numerical day instead of a Sunday like typical Mother's Day in the US.  Callie and I decided to surprise Grandma and her sisters by bringing flowers and visiting Great Grandma's grave while they were there for prayers and lunch. They sure were surprised, although Callie was screaming as we were walking up so they noticed us from pretty far away.  It was nice to spend time with everyone and let Great Grandma know we were thinking of her.  Callie Maria was named after Great Grandma Maria for her middle name and this was Callie's first visit to her grave.  Great Grandma predicted that I would have a little girl just before she passed and at the time I was skeptical, but only a few weeks later I was pregnant and we later found out it was indeed a girl which is a pretty incredible prediction by her.  We know that she is looking down on us from heaven and protecting and taking care of little Callie. Happy Mother's Day to Grandma and Great Grandma!
