Hello Sweetie,  Do you remember Savannah teaching you to ride her rip-stick? It has been several days since I posted here... busy as always running with the kids. One of the boys got expelled from school, for one day yesterday, and I picked him up and left him with Pops while I took Savannah to the mall  to get her hair cut and highlighted. Then she wanted to look in some stores. We grabbed a lettuce wrap from In-and-Out and picked up Mari, then to school to get Luca. I was gone ALL day and was drop-dead worn out when we got home.

My sweet Luna. I love you so much and forever. I do not believe you don't want to talk to me, for I did nothing wrong. When you called me from your locked room, scared, what was I to do? I had to call the police-you were in danger. Just in case THAT is why you're not talking to me. No, you have been told by your mom, or the "counselor" to not communicate with me.

The Centeno family from your mom's generation down, seems to hold grudges, stay in denial, and have an angry temper. There is no peace at all in this family. I try awfully hard, and I really miss seeing my family.

I hope you are having a good school year. Do you see Gretchen at all any more? I think of you each day. Did I tell you Pops had cataract surgery, and wears this funny looking patch? If he wore two at a time, Savannah says he would look like he had fly eyes! He is mostly healed now, and then on Oct. 4 he has the other eye done. I put in lots of drops throughout the day for him, and that will continue into November.

Not a lot to tell. Mari will be going to her school's homecoming on October 1st, and got  beautiful black dress with silver sequins and jewels at the waist. Micah wants to get into cosplay, and both boys start soccer in a few weeks. Savannah and Jake are getting their own place soon! Savannah got a lion tattoo, and I will post pictures soon. You know I don't like tattoos, but it IS cute and colorful.

I will love you forever, Luna Bean! XOXOXOXOX Mom Mom
