Even if you’re not new around here, here are 5 things you may not have known that I wanted to live forever on my feed because it’s all a part of my story 🫶🏼
1️. I know I just look like a blonde white girl but I am indeed 100% Cuban. Both my parents left Cuba with my grandparents when they were young. I wish my Spanish was better but I can usually understand *most of it & I can kinda speak. Garrett (my husband) saw me help a Spanish person trying to communicate to the cashier at a gas station a few years ago and now he’s convinced I’m fluent 😂
2️. I really feel like 2019 was a pivotal year for our life and the direction it went in. Selling everything & moving across the country where we literally only knew 1 other family was a huge risk. People were not happy about it, understandably. Garrett felt like God was speaking to him to make the move. I first said absolutely not you’re crazy. 😅 Then a week later, I had a dream and felt it too. Again, did it make sense? Nope. But it was a butterfly effect because I KNOW we would not be where we are today if we didn’t do it.
3️. Still healing from trauma really sucks. And what’s funny is you think you’re healed, and then other things come up. And trauma has an annoying way of intertwining itself with other areas of your life. While I am not holding grudges, my heart is still sensitive & it comes up in different ways. I can’t wait to share more from a healed place.
4. At 31, I’m SO thankful we had kids young. When I’m 43, my youngest will be 18. I love the thought of being active, fun grandparents & getting to be close to our adult kids. We got married at 23 & 21, so we had time and I thought FOR SURE at least 5 years. Clearly, God had other plans. After 1 hour of crying, I realized His timing is perfect. My kids are the freaking best. Hands down.
5️. I grew up with 2 older brothers and we played baseball/softball competitively. To this day, we still argue who was the best hitter 😂 I love this side of me but sometimes, I’m way too hard on myself. I hold HIGH expectations of myself, and it’s definitely played a role in my success but it also can take a toll on my mental health. I’m working on this too.
