Tell us why you want to be featured on our site?
What makes you or your family different from others?
I would like to be featured because I believe there is much insight that I could offer as a Hispanic mother. Our family is different from others because we are an interracial family. I believe that many families that are like ours would benefit from our experiences. 

Is there anything else you would like to share with us that we should know about?
Please list any organizations/website or fundraisers here.
I am a breastfeeding counselor as well and like to inform women on breastfeeding and like to empower them to reach their breastfeeding goals.

 Last weekend we celebrated my son's birthday that was the same age as when I was pregnant with him. It seems so surreal that when we are pregnant we are focused on the baby. We go through life and then we find ourselves older and seeing our babies as adults. 
I shared with my son how much I see the character that he had as a baby in him as an adult. He is kind, gentle, patient and very analytical just like he was as a child. He loves to study and we were laughing that he was using a planner in 1st grade. ​Take note of your children’s personality in a journal. It will be so fun to see what you observe when they are older.
