I met Claudia seven years ago when our third child was born and we had all hands full. She stayed with us for a  year to take care of our children and help with the daily chores of the house. It was extremely nice to have somebody kind, positive, nice and specially to speak the same language and to share the same culture and traditions! She was a great support in those days when I barely had a few minutes to think on myself. She loved to play with the kids and she immediately made a great connection with all of them. We celebrated then her 18 birthday and I am sure she won’t forget that! 🙂   She was born in the north of Mexico and has 4 beautiful sisters. The months flew and her days in Boston were counted. She came back home to continue with college. We moved on as well. Years passed but we always kept in touch through facebook (she was one of the pioneers and the one who introduced me to facebook!) It was nice to see through pictures and messages how she was doing and to meet all her family and friends in Mexico. And here she is….. almost eight years later! All grown up and more beautiful than ever! Thank you Claudia for a longtime friendship!
