Our Beautiful Princess Yoliza Paige Gonzalez. She is So Beautiful. Sometimes I can’t believe I’m Your Mommy. You’re such an amazing little girl. You’re so smart & silly. It Amazes me how you face new challenges everyday & overcome them. I am Grateful because of you. You have taught me the important things in life & transformed me into the person I thought I could have never become. You have taught me that it is OK to be different because different does not mean any less. You led me out of my planned motherhood journey & took me into yours instead. I had a fear of uncertainties. The journey I took with you had its ups and downs, challenges & sometimes the weather was not favorable. But I would have missed out on connecting with you, understanding your world & views, & most of all, seeing you happy if I had dragged you into my planned journey instead. The unexpected trip turned out to be the best one. I thank you for teaching me to focus on happiness & not too much about what other people would think of us. You taught me that it does not matter if people judge because my motherhood journey is my journey with you & not anyone else.You have taught me how to speak up. I learned that I need to be your advocate & that it is OK to ask for help. At the age when children started communicating, you only spoke one word. But you taught me to be more aware of body language & just because you did not speak much, it did not mean you had nothing to express. You showed me that joy & love can be shown in so many other ways. I love seeing you dance to your favorite song & watching you smile when pull out your fav toys & play with you. But most of all I love your hugs &kisses ! You have taught me what patience really is. When you have your meltdowns, you have taught me to learn to control my own emotions & reflect on my reaction to the situation. It was not easy, & I have read before that patience is bitter but the fruit is sweet. & this is true because we still have our days of struggle but they are fewer than they were. You have taught me that I do not have to follow a recipe to its detail to obtain a happy life. But that I can tweak it to our own tastes so that we can enjoy the journey. & this I learned to be more flexible. Thank you for being who you are, because I learn to view others as each unique individual being. Being different does not mean you cannot make a difference in this world. You made a difference in me & that is the proof. Thank you for rocking my world!

Love , Mommy ❤️
