My husband asked me, “Why aren’t you posting Fer’s back to school pix?” and I responded with, “Because I’m scared. I’m scared of failing again.” And he said, “Post the pic. You never failed. None of us did.” So here it is. Oh Fernandito, if you knew how I wish I could protect you from everything, but then that would mean that I don’t have faith in you, in everything I’ve taught you. Grow Fernandito. Radiate. 💫

And just like that, my summer break is over. I return to work tomorrow and it’s always bittersweet. Since having Fernandito, my summers are full of learning experiences. There were days where I felt like I was drowning. Where I texted my husband and/or @carolina_adame in despair. But in those days were lessons on how to improve, how to adjust, how to forgive. Being Fernandito’s mom has to be the most rewarding job ever because of its ups and downs. I am grateful for my friends who empathized instead of judged. Who told me that they were in the trenches, too. But most of all I’m grateful to my Fernandito, who allowed me the grace to grow. Adiós verano 2019. It’s been a real one. 💗 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #raisingespanol

Fernando came with me to my classroom yesterday while I began setting it up. Fernandito was 6 months old when I started working at the site I’m currently at. They don’t lie when they say time flies.💫 . . . . . . . . . . . . #raisingespanol

Fernandito loves his patineta. He was going up to the older kids (middle schoolers) and asking, “Want to me see me skate?” in English. 😁. We use “patineta” for scooter. What do you use? . . . . . . . . . . . #raisingespanol
