2020

Starting this year was very unexpected due to me having a baby boy in June and to moving into our very first place together. With my pregnancy at the beginning dragging me down and was very tiring for me, I wasn't expecting a pandemic to happen to where everything had to be shut down. With my hardly working at the time and for my SO looking for a job to figure out what to do was hard between us. Thank goodness for the stimulus check that helped us including my unemployment at the time. During that time I couldn't have anyone around me and I really didn't want to go anywhere because that is how tired I was, even eating out at a restaurant I didn't want to. Also with the pandemic hitting I didn't even have a baby shower for my son, which was a bum for me because I would have loved to have one. My SO wasn't ready for his son to arrive but I made due with what we needed. I love that things had happen for a reason and to me that God or whoever you believe in has a reason for doing what he throws at every human being. To me, it made me realized that I was very appreciate of what we had, which was a roof over our head and food in our bellies. My SO is still a little hard headed to understand any of that, but I figure with him being twenty-six he's still learning.

2020 may have broken a lot of people that needed a job to make ends meat, I know that struggle and I know it's not easy. My heart goes out to those who have been helping those fight off the COVID virus. I'm also praying to those moms and their newborn babies that they don't have to deal with it or face it. I pray to the healthcare workers to stop the virus as much as they can. I am grateful that my in-laws and their family has not caught this virus, even my kids haven't. I'm also glad that my SO has not caught it at all. With this year ending and the loss of those who died because of COVID, I hope everyone around the world whether you are mexican, hispanic, asian, white, black, all races I want to wish you all a Happy Holidays to you and your family. Enjoy this last nine days of 2020 because who knows what's in store for 2021.

I know it's that time of year to say goodbye to everything good and bad that has happen, but hey things have been turning to be good and amazing after everything like this. After a long hard year of things to figure out and after a long days that I have enjoyed with my son, the year is ending on a good note with the people I love. My heart has been heavy with lots of drama and stress with trying to make things better with my father in law but this year who knows how it will end. Can't say that things are going to be better in 2021 but we do have a new family member coming at the end of the year Olivia. She is my son's cousin who are only six months apart and things have been rough for my sister in law.

She's been dealing with some health issues during her pregnancy like I did. At the beginning of the year she was living in Washington with her husband but things didn't feel right so she moved down back home to Texas. I love that she's home and she's happier, now things are turning up good for her and that baby. I know my So will have a connection with his niece like no other. She did ask me to babysit since I am a stay at home mom at the moment, but it's also to have my son grow up with his cousin. But anyway things are becoming good and I can't wait till things are amazing especially next year.

There might be good and wonderful things in the year to come. I know I'm expecting a niece and good vibes to come for my family and I. So again hug your family for surviving this pandemic, kiss your kids, kiss the love of your life, see your family more often whether it's through video chat or video, make sure those who matter to you are those who you keep dear to your heart. Happy Holidays from me and my family and wishing you a Happy New Year!
