Well, mom is 57 today! Yeah! But mom looks younger to her age. Here are a few pics I found and I'm posting them here. Later I'll show her that ALL the World have seen her!

Her name is Luz Esther.

This is her in 1971. It's the pic in a driving license. I can't believe how big her hair and those cat-framed glases. LOL I must have been 1 year old.

This is mom in a visit the the Ripley's Believe It or Not from Orlando, FL. Mom was very skinny at that time. She loves to travel and we have been in tons of places. ALmost every year she has a trip planned. Now I'm planning fo rher to go with me to Egypt, but she says that when she returns back will be with me 'cause she's afraid of traveling for so many hours alone!

This is at work. She works part time in the Pentecostal Bible Collage of PR. She's the secretary of the Librarian.

Her "boss" is my sister Letty and she's a good boss. But actually my mom only works a few hours per week. She's retired from the Universtity of Puerto Rico in Rio Piedras, where she was a secretary in the Library System. Due to health problems she retired and now has this mini-part time to help with the medicines cost.

Mom has a very good humor. Here is she with a bag I bought her. Why she put it on her hear, it's a mystery! LOL

Her hobbies are plenty but one of them is gardening. She loves to attend her roses and orchids, among other plants. Everytime that a plant bloom she tells me to take a pic of it.

I need to sit with her and teach her how to blog so she can show everybody her flowers and dolls. She is also a doll collector and Betty Boop collector.

Here is with her new car. It was like 2 months ago that she got rid of the Ford Explorer she had for 10 years! Now she has a Nissan Sentra of 2006. I think this is the 1st time that she has a small car. She always had big cars, including a pick up, mini van, station wagon and the Explorer.
So Happy Birthday MOM!!!
