Angeles, a Mom from Spain on PNN

Happy Thanksgiving, from Spain!

Oh, yes! I know I'm in Spain, and we do not celebrate it, but anyway, I want to wish you a happy day.

In fact, it is not just the name, the tradition, but the idea, the feeling. As far as I know, you say Thanks! for having all you have, specially your family. And that's the point. What is really important and great, is having a concrete day to say Thanks!, something I guess we haven't got in my culture.

So, enjoy it! And say thanks! because you have, again, today, the possiblity of being with your family.

And follow Laurieboris advice "Holiday Traffic Drive you Crazy?" It's very good!

On the other hand, I guess others in your country (US) prefer to celebrate Thanksgiving in a different way! (See Cereals "My Thanksgiving Tradicion")

So, no matter how you celebrate it, enjoy!

Hello from Spain

Oh yes! Maybe these green letters... Yes, they are shouting: "Hope!" Because hope is something we must always keep with us. It is no easy, but it is not impossible.

Well, first of all, excuse me if my English is not perfect. My native language is Spanish; I was born and live in Spain. So far away from America, from so many different countries and cultures, but, on the other hand, so close to you all, moms from all over the world. This section is giving us the chance to communicate, to talk about us, about our families, HOPES, about our daily problems and/or joy. So, in fact, we are not far.

And now, it's the moment to tell you about Angeles (that's me!). As said above, I live in Spain, I am married and have a son. He is eleven. We may be considered as the typical Spanish family. But I don't like that word "typical". In fact, from my point of view, we are not so... typical.

But I won't tell you now. I have time. We have time. As I am considering this opportunity (writing here, at pnn.com) as a way to express myself, something not easy in "real life" (let's call it that way). Oh yes! This is real! I know! But, for some reason, I feel I can open myself in a different way. Maybe, because you, my reader are probably a mom.

It is late. And, as you may imagine, I'm tired. But I admit I'm really enjoying this short time, writting about something I never did before. That is, about myself!

So this is just the first post and hope to be here as much as possible. Please! Tell me about you! This (my) new "adventure" promises to be very interesting and exciting!
