This is the round face that traced the bardo to come and find a woman disheveled in loss. She has given me brown smiles, sunsets of hope tucked behind a blanket we use to fall asleep together.
These writings are a tribute to mothering Avelina Claridad and now Marcel Joao Santos Salazar. They are my second and third-born children. My first daughter, Amaly Celeste died one month after birth - only one year before Avelina was born. This blog helps me to hold all of their lives within and allows the spirit of my writing to honor how they affect me in the present.
