A look back at 2010

I still can't believe that this year is ending tomorrow! So many things have happened, good and bad... but it'll all went by too fast.

Of course the greatest thing that happened to us was our little Julián, born back in January. Since then it has been a long journey for my boyfriend and I. We have learned so many things, many from mistakes. The most important thing we have learned is to grow as a family and a couple. Having the little one kicking inside my belly and dreaming how we were going to raise him was one thing, him being outside was another. We suddenly were responsible for another human being, even though we didn't even take care of ourselves sometimes. But we managed.

We learned to function with less sleep, to change a diaper in a split second, to do other things while holding a baby, to sing and dance just to see the booger's smile... we learned (and are still learning) to be parents, to be a family. And we're doing a pretty good job if I say so myself!

As a couple we're better than never. We're both more tolerant, patient, and understanding. We both know that even if we get mad and fight, we're still together as one. We have built a home, tiny and modest, but warm and loving. We have been through pretty rough times, but we know we can overcome anything together.

I'm happy to see the family we've become... and I'm looking forward to what 2011 is bringing us!

Mucho love,

MJ
