THIS PAGE NEEDS SOME UPDATING... COMING SOON, I promise! :)
I was born and raised in Venezuela, and have been living in the US since 1999. Life has changed plenty since then. I graduated from college, married, became a Mom, and am now an incubator once again. I’m a housewife for the time being, and hope to rejoin the work force someday. In the meantime, I’m fully enjoying the adventures of marriage and parenthood.

I am extremely blessed in more ways than I ever dreamed of. I have a wonderful life, very laid back and low key (even with a toddler). I don’t get much time to indulge in my hobbies (decorating, gardening, etc.) with a toddler running around all the time keeping me plenty busy beyond the usual other things I have to tend to. I love cooking, dancing, traveling, watching movies and spending time with my family and friends. Regrets... too few to mention, but I will say I regret not living close to family and old friends (which is only made worst by the fact that it takes an entire day of air travel to go see them, and another one back). Patience is not my greatest virtue, but I’m working on that. ;) Every day is the same for me, as I’m sure it is for many moms out there just like me. Mom duty never stops. It’s round the clock, 24 hrs/day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. I don’t live by nagging “it’s Monday” or celebrating “it’s the weekend”. If anything, I celebrate the end of winter, spring flowers and green sprouting, the fun-filled summer of possibilities, and the changing colors of fall. Oh, I guess I should also mention my favorite holiday of all, Christmas! Life is great, and of course like every other human being I stumble across some ‘stone’ in my path every now and then, I may cry or complain, but things keep rolling either way, as they should. That’s life.
I am happily married to the sweetest man. Julio is a wonderful loving husband, and he adores me and loves me in a way I’ve never felt before and could never really describe. Truth be told he’s the breadth of my life, I love him with all my heart and all I am. He drives me crazy some days, but I'm sure he feels the same way about me (lol). I don’t ever want to know a day without him.
My son Nico (Cesar Nicolas), born April 2008, is the most wonderful little person, and in the most amazing ways the light of my life. He’s got the greatest personality, very comedic and lively, sweet, a true charmer, and he’s got the greatest smile! He can brighten up any dark day, and cheer you up by merely just being himself. What an amazing blessing, to be a mother and to have a child like him!
As of 2/23/10, I’m 31 weeks pregnant with our baby girl Victoria, who cannot be left unmentioned. Just the idea that I am carrying and helping grow inside of me the greatest miracle of life, a baby, and feeling her move daily is just beyond me. Nine months may seem like a long time, but it isn’t until after you give birth that you really realize the truly wonderful thing you’ve done and the greatest gift you’ll ever receive. You can be blessed by many things, but there is just nothing like a child. (Thank you God!) The daily hiccups and baby kicks I feel are a reminder of just how blessed I am, and how there’s always something to look forward to. We’re anxiously awaiting the birth of our little princess and can only dream of all the joys and happiness our precious addition will bring to our family. Soon enough, it’ll be a reality and she’ll be here with us.
I’m very thankful for my life, the abundant blessings it’s filled with, and most of all the people I love. How exciting it is to think of the wonders awaiting us on our journey through life as a family, with endless love, happiness, and blessings to abound. I just cannot wait!
