"Not just any Love Letter"


               Hello again! here we are, another store open and another on the way, it's been busy,busy....I thank our lucky stars for work, although at the same time....I can't help but yearn for the tinsie bit of down time we get every now and then, We work next to our dog (that HAS the need to be on my lap ALL the time),son (who yells "Mama" every 15 minutes just to show me the cute girl on the Disney channel, and My husband and I, are together 24-7, rain or shine, ALL THE TIME...so i'm not gonna lie, it gets........intense. But at the end of the day, they are the glue that holds me together, they keep me sane!
             I am super excited to have a mini trip to the big apple coming up.....(most of which is for business reasons) but, on the other hand we will be celebrating the hubby's birthday & our 5th year anniversary....I can believe it's here already! 5 yrs. of married bliss.....It's funny, But now that I'm older...Marriage seems to feel SO right, of course it has to do with my better half! I am moody, irritable, heck sometimes on the brink of a frickin' nervous breakdown! and lets face it being in a house with ALL boys.... is NOT always glamorous, But you know what..... my Boys, they just DO it for me. they let me know I am their everything....I know I couldn't have it any better.

      So in honor if my main man's birthday and our wedding anniversary I wanted to translate our first dance song we played 5 yrs. ago at our wedding into English, ( since we are Latin, we chose our favorite song in Spanish). I still get tears in my eyes when I hear it play, it gives me goosebumps, and will always be a love letter, Not just ANY love letter, but the one that declares ridiculous, head over heels, you just won the lottery of love kind of letter, all for the man that nurses me back to health when I'm sick, makes me burst out into laughter when I'm down, spoils me when he's proud and keeps it real, when I'm flying high. I can't wait for the next 5 yrs. "Happy Anniversary babe, I LOVE U." 

"Que me Alcance La vida"   (give me enough life)

So many moments of happiness
Such Clarity, Such Fantasy
Such passion, Such imagination.

And so much giving LOVE, until the day arrives.
So many ways to say "I LOVE YOU", It's just not
human, everything  you do for me.

Everyone of my wishes, you just read my mind.
Every time you smile, you break my routine ,
and the patience in which you listen...the determination in which you fight
How you fulfill me, how you liberate me
I wanna be with you, if one day I'm born again.

I ask God to give me enough life and enough time to pay back
at least a tiny bit, of the great deal you give me.
I ask God to give me enough time to tell you all the amazing things I feel, Thanks to your love.

that feeling, that it's just not me, that there's something bigger when you look at me.
The sensation that time doesn't exist, when your hands are on my cheeks.
How you fulfill me, how you liberate me
I wanna be with you, if one day I'm born again.

I ask God to give me enough life and enough time to pay back
at least a tiny bit, of the great deal you give me.

 It wakes me into light, takes me away from the darkness, filling it with warmth...in order to never lose my way.

I ask God to give me enough life and enough time to pay back
at least a tiny bit, of the great deal you give me.
I ask God to give me enough time to tell you all the amazing things I feel, Thanks to your love.

I took this pic in Portland,OR right outside Patty's Closet, I enlarged it and hung it as art in our bed room.
