I get it from my Mama

"Woman is but an engine of ecstasy, a mimic of the earth from the ends of her curled hair, to her red-lacquered nails." -Sylvia Plath
 
"When I dance my body feels so excited and elated. A special feeling runs through my bones. Such orgullo (pride) and dignity, that I may share with others the artistic element of my cultura & heritage. This element being Mexican folklore through dance," writes Rosie on the back of this pic.

She claims this is her all time fave pic of them. 

 Didn't your mom wear a white jumpsuit to her Vegas wedding? Posing in front of a limo they couldn't afford. 

 
Rosie and a friend she used to make me call my aunt. why didn't she save this wrap around dress for me? WHY DIOS?

Her love gave me confidence, the confidence gave me strength, enough strength to walk away....
