It’s been tough around Seattle these days, we were  getting just rain, again and again…Today, finally after weeks of rain I got to see the sun and the blue sky, even though is cooler than other days (3 degrees Celsius) I don’t mind, I guess I can live with cold but not with rain and gray skies (not for so long at least).

For these past weeks I wished I could be in Paraguay, enjoying the blue skies (that is one of the things I miss most) and just hang out with my friends and family. Yesterday I was on MSN with a great friend of mine telling him that I miss a “mixto caliente”  and, a cappuccino from Sugar!  I really wish I could be there, some days are very hard and I miss Py sooo badly.

Today I got a very interesting comment on my blog today, It was from another Paraguayan living abroad (actually in Miami), wondering if he made the best decision in leaving Paraguay and telling me about he enjoyed growing up there (as much as I did)…and finally he mentioned where he got to school and it happens to be one of my classmates! but strangely I don’t recall him (we were too little)

here is his comment…

Is a terrible doubt that follows me all the time, I ask myself if it was really the best for my kids to move then from Paraguay to USA, now comparing my childhood with theirs, like you said, we had have such a terrific time and have so much memories, no many friends and relatives, that freedom without worries help a lot to develop our personality, make us free spirit but more responsible. Sometimes I feel sorry for then because even though they have the ocean, they couldn’t enjoy swimming in a little river (arroyos) or a lake like we done it, or explore the jungle, or even just go to a farm and enjoy what mother nature have to offer, and the friends that they make are gone in a year, in just elementary years my son is in his 3rd school already.
I hope in the future I don’t regret my decision, now I’ll try to take then for summer vacation every year, so at least they enjoy a little bit that experience, I thing will help.

I really enjoyed your blogs, your writing skills are very good as much as your photos, we probably meat before, I was in the same class in Santa Tere with Huberto Bauza, Fredy Soto, Hugo Colman from pre-escolar to 3rd grade, good time too in the old building. Kudos and more Kudos again.

This blog thing is amazing, it bringing’s me back old friends and give me new ones almost everyday =), at the end the sun does shine everyday!!!
