On this occasion, through this diary, I want to show you just some of the activities that I carry out in my day to day and for which I consider myself extraordinarily rich. My day today started with cleaning my home, I started by washing the dishes that had been left over from the night before.
We didn't have water so we waited for the water to arrive a bit later so we could fill the tanks. That was yesterday, and by today morning we had enough water to wash.

I consider myself rich because I have a house that, even if it gets dirty or messy, is a safe place to be with my family. A bed to rest, a table to eat. A place where I have created unforgettable memories with my family and a place that will belong to my son when I am not there.
Once I finished washing up, I dedicated myself to tidying up the rest of the house, sweeping and organizing the baby's room. Once all the organization of the house was ready, I got ready to start preparing lunch.
Although it was early, he wanted to take advantage of the free time to have lunch ready on time or perhaps before time. He started by washing and placing some lentils over high heat, which he accompanied with some buns and a seafood salad.

I feel rich because I have food on my table, because I can sit with my family and thank God for what he provides. I am rich because I have a family with whom to share food and because I know that when my husband comes home from work we will be able to sit at the table together and share what our day was like.
Once I placed the lentils, I sat down to play for a while with my son, since he told me "mom the legos". I looked for the legos and we sat on the floor to play for a while while the lentils cooked and it was an interesting moment for me.

I really do feel rich because God has actually given me the privilege of being the mother of a beautiful, intelligent, healthy and highly skilled child, because I have someone who waits for me when I go out and when I arrive they hug me with a smile, bright eyes and call me mom
