To my daughter Carla:


Hijas y madres
Siempre relacion
Confundida
Con emociones
Profundidas


Donde termina la una
Y empieza la otra
Hay mentes varias
De la amistad
Y del amor
Pero ha hija y la madre...
Que misteriosa es la vida!

Daughters and mothers
Always a relationship
Confused
With emotions
Profound



Where does one end
and the other begin?
There are various thoughts
of friendship
and love
But daughter and mother
How mysterious is life!


How can I ever tell you how much you are loved?
Impossible.
From the moment I first knew
That your little heart was beating next to mine,
my life has been ever richer
With the passage of time
I have been honored to see you grow
Into a beautiful woman
A wonderful friend to so many people
I am blessed with such a lovely daughter
My dear beloved baby girl, grown up
And I am doubly blessed
Because you are my friend

Love, Mom
