Lorenzo's 11th Birthday!

Wishing a Happy 11th birthday to my dear grandson Lorenzo who is in the middle of a Labubu craze. Labubu is a line of collectible plush toys created by Hong Kong illustrator Kasing Lung. The series features zoomorphic elves with exaggerated facial expressions, of which the central figure is Labubu, a monster with sharp teeth, large ears and a scruffy appearance. I'm guessing the perfect birthday gift for Lorenzo this year is a set of original Labubus!

Almudena, My Dear Beautiful Granddaughter Is Celebrating Her 7th Birthday Today!

Almudena is the loveliest, sweetest and prettiest girl you can ever hope to meet. I love her deeply and she is the youngest of my two only granddaughters.  She loves to read, attending her dance classes, practicing gymnastics and playing board games, among many other interests. My life is brighter and happier since she became part of my family. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY DEAR ALMUDENA!
