I had a lovely morning with my therapist. He loved the food I made for him.
As I was doing my exercises, Martín told me that his sister was already in Spain with her husband. They are just married and went to Germany to work and they are all very proud of them.
Martín told me that he wanted to go to Spain but not just yet because his parents were too sad after Mariela´s (his sister) departure.
I met my friend Luis over 20 years ago. He had written a book about the adoption of his first child (Mariela) and Lili had told him to ask me to present the book.
He came to my house and I was worried. It could be a very bad book (I had not read anything that he had written). But I could not say no.
The book was beautiful and that was the beginning of a wonderful friendship. Martín is adopted too as they could not have biological children. I often think about the luck that many children (and parents) have due to adoption. Mariela is on her way to Germany but Martín doesn´t want to leave his parents alone.
There are so many small stories like this one. Martín is a therapist and he takes care of his parents. Some time ago, Eliana (Martín´s mom) cut a tendon and Martín has been helping her regain the use of her leg.
Tomorrow I´m invited to María´s house. And that´s another story.

Tomorrow will be another good day for you I think.
What a wonderful story you shared for us. You are so right children who would otherwise not have had a very good life are able to go on and have wonderful blessed lives due to adoption.

I think anything in family relationship it is always wonderful and lovely if the family accept, care and love everyone whole heartedly.
The story on how you met is a bit funny but wonderful story to share.
