This is my mother's mom. Her name is Vilma and contrary to what you guys might expect, I don't call her "abuela." When I was younger, she would call me "amores," and whenever I tried to imitate her, what would come out of my mouth instead was "moyes." Soon enough, every single one of her grandchildren started calling her that too. She also calls me "moyes" in return, and I'm actually her favorite granddaughter (she's even quite vocal about it - if you ask her, she'll tell you that I'm her favorite, haha.) The first picture was taken in 1987 at my first birthday celebration. The second was taken on Christmas of last year. She is one of the strongest women I know. Actually, I didn't mention this previously, but she just won the battle against skin cancer. Both of my grandpas are already dead, but I'm blessed to say that I've still got my two grandmas alive and well - just hoping that they'll be next to me for many more years.
30 Day Song Challenge - Day 27: A song that you wish you could play.
I would love to be able to play the piano in this. As much as I love pop music, I think this is the music of my dreams. I mean, I don't think I've ever met anyone who doesn't like Tchaikovsky. I remember when I was a little girl, I would play Tchaikovsky's "Valse des Fleurs" from the Nutcracker Suite over and over again as I pretended to be a ballerina. Truly beautiful music.
