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.
