She was a lady of actions not words. I spent more time at her house than I did at my own. Her house never smelled of hunger and sadness. She wasn’t the richest but I never did feel poor around her. She has become the most significant person in my life and has made me the person I am today.
Although her left eye is a little bit tinier than her right, she defines perfection. Her hair is black with hints of gray. Her skin is as brown as the beans she boiled and as soft as petals on the roses she grew. She has eyes that speak for her emotions and sun kisses from all the hard work she’s been put through.

She continues to mold me into the woman I aspire to be. She has the heart of a warrior and the soul of a saint. I love her with everything I got and I know that I can always turn to her for anything. She has prepared me to conquer the world and because of her no obstacle will ever be too big. My abuela is the reason I am the person I am
