My sister Minnie came up to visit over the Labor Day weekend. She was scheduled to arrive while we were gone. I had taken Nathaniel to his Infant Swimming Resource (ISR) lessons, which we attended everyday in the late afternoon. I recall I was excited because my sister was coming to visit. When we arrived at home Steve and my sister were already here. Steve had come out to greet Nathaniel and I. When I entered the house I went to look for my sister in the guest bedroom she would be stayin in. As I was looking for her my mother sneaked up from behind me to greet me. I was joyfully surprised to see my mother. I recall upon seeing her I yelled with excitement and then cried tears of joy. It was very moving for me and for all those around. They all know just how much I long for my family back home, especially for my mother and I just feel like she is missing out on so much with Nathaniel. For those of you who know us, know that my mom doesn't visit very often because she doesn't have the means to do so on her own. Fortunately, my siblings have made some visits and taken advantage of opportunities to bring my mother along. We like to cherish and capture these priceless moments.
Nathaniel is the reason for these photo opportunities. Here we are seen with Grandma Lupe (my mother), and Aunt Minnie.
We had just finish eating a late lunch at Fresco's Mexican restaurant. It is about as good as it gets here in the Fort Worth area that we live in. We have learned to get by on it and realize that it doesn't compare to the food we can eat when we are in San Antonio. Nathaniel had all his grandparents and his aunt Minnie in town the same weekend. Boy...... he was busy learning alot about his family.
