horrible, no good, very bad day.

Today was not the best of days. Everything at the hogar was just not going well. Lots of misunderstandings and frustrations all day. I was almost in tears at one point and toward the end of the day. I was sitting in the kitchen helping to prepare once (the pre-dinner snack) and literally mid sentence complaining about everything that had happened when one of the girls came running in saying "Tia Romy, Tia Romy, tengo algo para ti!" (I have something for you). She handed me a card and on the inside it had a huge heart and said the following:

Tia Romy, te quiero mucho con todo mi corazon.
te quiero mucho tia.
de, Suzy

Which translates to.....
Tia Romy, I love you so much with all of my hear.
I love you so much tia.
From, Suzy.

Complete with giant hearts and stars galore.

I almost started crying again, but this time it was a good thing. I picked her up and hugged her forever and told her how she just made my day. The best part was no one even told her to make the card, she just wanted to. She's 7 and is very hot and cold some days with me so it really meant the world to me. She's never been so sweet and loving with me before.

So we hugged some more and I took some pictures with her and the card. That then led to a silly self photo shoot of the two of us making funny faces and then cracking up together after each one.
Needless to say, it turned my day right around.
