Hola mis queridos Hivers. Deseo que todos est茅n bien 馃槉
Hoy quiero escribirles sobre el amor. El amor que une, que alegra, que edifica y que hace feliz.
Hello my dear Hivers. I wish you all well 馃槉.
Today I want to write to you about love. The love that unites, that gladdens, that edifies and that makes happy.
En mi introducci贸n a Hive les mencion茅 que tengo cuatro (4) hijos. Una hermosa nena y tres galanes. El mayor y el menor de los varones viven conmigo. El otro form贸 su hogar y ya tiene dos reto帽itos hermosos. Mi hijita se cas贸 y vive en otra localidad en las afueras de la ciudad donde estamos nosotros. Queda a una distancia aproximada de tres horas por carretera. A煤n as铆 ella se toma un tiempito para venir a casa a visitarnos. Su presencia logra que nuestros d铆as sean bastante diferentes, rompiendo as铆 con la rutina. Ella ama a sus hermanos y siempre inventa maneras de complacerlos. En una oportunidad vino muy emocionada porque estaba aprendiendo nuevas recetas de reposter铆a y quer铆a compartirlas con nosotros 隆Y nos prepar贸 de todo! Eso fue pura algarab铆a en la cocina observando la habilidad que demostraba al mezclar los diferentes ingredientes a la vez que convers谩bamos acerca de los tips que empleaba para personalizar sus creaciones. Recuerdo que hasta uno de sus sobrinos la ayud贸 a amasar. Fue muy divertido. Nos prepar贸 donas, rosquillas, torta, teque帽os. Le quedaron realmente deliciosos.
In my introduction to Hive I mentioned to you that I have four (4) children. One beautiful baby girl and three boys. The oldest and the youngest of the boys live with me. The other one started his own home and already has two beautiful offspring. My daughter got married and lives in another town outside the city where we are. It is about a three hour drive away. She still takes time to come home to visit us. Her presence makes our days quite different, breaking the routine. She loves her siblings and is always inventing ways to please them. On one occasion she came very excited because she was learning new baking recipes and wanted to share them with us and she made us everything! That was pure excitement in the kitchen as we watched the skill she showed in mixing the different ingredients while we talked about the tips she used to personalize her creations. I remember one of her nephews even helped her with the kneading. It was a lot of fun. She made us donuts, doughnuts, cake, teque帽os. They were really delicious.
En otra de sus visitas salimos a comprar telas (porque tambi茅n se dedica a la costura) . Como lleg贸 el mediod铆a y a煤n no hab铆amos terminado las diligencias nos dirigimos al modesto puesto de una joven que vende teque帽os muy sabrosos y ah铆 comimos para recargar fuerzas y seguir la faena. As铆 que nos fuimos a un supermercado que hab铆an inaugurado recientemente y quer铆amos conocer. Recorrimos el local, comparamos precios, y tambi茅n disfrutamos del buen ambiente que hay all铆. Luego salimos y me invit贸 a comer helado en un lugar que est谩 ubicado casi al frente del supermercado. Nos deleitamos con sus ricos y variados sabores. Al terminar nos dirigimos a casa.
In another of her visits we went out to buy fabrics (because she is also a seamstress). As it was noon and we had not yet finished the errands we went to the modest stall of a young woman who sells very tasty teque帽os and there we ate to recharge our batteries and continue the task. So we went to a supermarket that had recently opened and that we wanted to visit. We toured the store, compared prices, and also enjoyed the good atmosphere there. Then we went out and he invited me to eat ice cream at a place that is located almost in front of the supermarket. We were delighted with its rich and varied flavors. When we finished we headed home.
No puedo dejar de mencionar la ocasi贸n en la que nos visit贸 y quiso preparar unos perros calientes. Les pidi贸 a sus hermanos que la acompa帽aran a comprar todo lo que se necesitaba para hacerlos. As铆 que otra vez logr贸 unirnos para tan delicioso momento. Eso fue otro motivo de alegr铆a y ocurrencias porque cada uno opinaba c贸mo deb铆an prepararse. Uno de mis hijos que tiene bastante habilidad en la cocina se encarg贸 de cortar los ingredientes. Mi hijita prepar贸 unas exquisitas salsas. Mi otro hijo y yo nos encargamos de rellenar los panes. Umm... todo qued贸 s煤per. Ah, y aunque en casa ya no bebemos refresco ese d铆a rompimos la dieta y compramos uno. Luego tomamos unas fotitos y...隆a comer!
I can't fail to mention the time when she visited us and wanted to make some hot dogs. She asked her siblings to go with her to buy everything needed to make them. So once again she managed to bring us together for such a delicious moment. That was another reason for joy and witticisms because everyone had their own opinion on how they should prepare them. One of my children, who is quite skilled in the kitchen, was in charge of cutting the ingredients. My little daughter prepared some delicious sauces. My other son and I were in charge of stuffing the breads. Umm... everything turned out great. Then we took some pictures and...let's eat!
En otra oportunidad lleg贸 con el firme prop贸sito de llevar a su sobrino mayor al parque. Y as铆 fue. Preparamos todo en casa, luego pasamos buscando al ni帽o, de all铆 fuimos al supermercado a comprar unos snacks. Despu茅s caminamos hasta el parque que nos queda relativamente cerca. 脥bamos hablando y echando chistes. Al llegar fue verdaderamente divertido. Ella se ri贸 con todas las ocurrencias del peque帽o. Pasearon y disfrutaron juntos tal cual como ella quer铆a. As铆 que mi hija con el amor que nos demuestra es el hilo que nos une como familia. Tiene el don de venir a casa e iluminarla con su presencia. Si estamos desanimados, nos anima. Si estamos contentos, ella a帽ade m谩s alegr铆a. Si tenemos alg煤n problema, ella aporta soluciones. Y cuando viene, mis otros hijos siempre est谩n pendientes y nos reunimos en casa. Constantemente le agradezco a Dios por haberme dado estos cuatro tesoros. Y, aunque cada uno posee rasgos propios de su personalidad, todos tienen en com煤n ese algo 煤nico y especial: el amor de familia.
Another time he came with the firm intention to take his oldest nephew to the park. And so it was. We prepared everything at home, then we went looking for the child, from there we went to the supermarket to buy some snacks. Then we walked to the park, which is relatively close to us. We were talking and making jokes. When we got there it was really funny. She laughed at all the little boy's jokes. They walked and enjoyed together just as she wanted. So my daughter with the love she shows us is the thread that binds us together as a family. She has the gift of coming home and brightening up the house with her presence. If we are discouraged, she cheers us up. If we are happy, she adds more joy. If we have a problem, she brings solutions. And when she comes, my other children are always attentive and we gather at home. I constantly thank God for giving me these four treasures. And although each one has his or her own personality traits, they all have in common something unique and special: the love of family.
