Hey Siri: Guacamole

Si habéis leído la entrada sobre el COVID-19, habrás visto que compramos dos homepods justo al principio del confinamiento. Servían para ayudaros a pasar el tiempo, escuchar música, controlar vuestras luces, etc. Estos bichos futuristas funcionan con órdenes vocales (“Hey Siri…”), así que se pueden programar distintas acciones con frases específicas. Vosotras enseguida quistéis personalizarlo. ¡Cómo […]

When the pandemic hit and lockdown became a reality in Luxembourg (16 March 2020), I felt like I should document it so we could remember all the details of what happened when we look back on it years from now. But I put myself on survival mode for those months and did not make the […]

Corto se nos fue

El día que adoptamos a Cortito (el 13 de febrero de 2016) ya sabíamos que no viviría mucho tiempo. Nos dijeron que tenía unos 5 años y supusimos que viviría 5 más. Su cuerpo sufría claramente de algunas malformaciones (sus patitas delanteras en forma de corazón) además de faltarle la pata trasera izquierda, lo cual […]

Por fin primas

¡Llegaron por fin dos primas a la familia! Después de tantos años siendo las únicas peques en la mayoría de las reuniones familiares (de los dos lados de la familia), pasáis a ser las primas mayores de Olivia y de Celia. Espero que la distancia y la diferencia de edad no dificulten demasiado vuestras amistades. […]

Happy 3rd birthday!

Yay! Today you turned 3 years old. It was almost 11am, September 3rd 2007, when the doctor took you out of my big, fat belly. You didn’t cry as you were born and I couldn’t see you because a curtain blocked my view of what the doctor was doing to my abdomen; it was comforting […]

I’m sorry you had to hear that

While attempting to make some mommy-friends, someone crossed our path who I would’ve loved to keep away from you for as long as possible, if not forever. This is the sort of person who can hurt your feelings because you’re you, and not the person she would have you be. After about an hour of […]

For you

You’re almost 3 years old and I’ve been writing to/about you on and off since you were born. Some of it is written on paper… with a pen… using my hand… Zeus, I’m old! Then came facebook and I had to start sharing your genius with the world. Not everyone is lucky enough to have […]
