Happy Birthday MADRE!

Before i go further, you have to say MADRE as a non-Hispanic in order for it to be funny.... Okay so its not funny!! My mom will laugh! 
What can i say about my mom? Wow, I could be here for days on end. Being my mom should be enough. She gave birth to me on a cold December day in The Bronx, and we were in the hospital for about 2 weeks cause she had to breath and push so much for me that she had an asthma attack. My dad, Cuco, came on leave from the military to see me in the hospital and the other fathers would say "wow, is that your kid?  when was he born? he would say today", after being there a week.  LOL
My mom is a beautiful woman, my sisters take after her.  She showed me how to make coffee and breakfast, at first i thought it was to help me be self sufficient, but every now and then i wonder if it was just so that she and Papi Simo could stay in bed relaxing from their busy week!!! Um?? LOL I may never know! But i can make coffee and a mean breakfast!!!! She is a smart woman, she of course married Cuco, without him i would not be here, and she later married Papi Simo who kept me in check growing up, and who helped give me my 3 sisters.. I know complicated, but awesome for me.  She has always been a hard worker and mother all at the same time. She taught me how to comb my sisters' hair and cook and care for them.  I definitely got a lot from that. I can make a killer braid and pony tail! I know i am a good father because of it. She raised me to be a man not a machista or male-chauvinist. She has always told me to be myself and yet respect others, at least in their face!! LOL She has a mean right and left hook, i deserved it though, I'll leave that story for another posting..... She has a huge heart as well as my two dads, i know where i get it from!! She always listened, when i was younger, without judging, but with a corrective ear. She loves to dance , know where i get that from as well. She is a Grandma now and has passed the same qualities to my sisters and now her grandchildren when she is not yelling at them to calm down and relax!! LOL 
Happy Birthday Mom!
I love you very much and i wish you many more!!




Happy Anniversary Papi and Mom!
