My first flight and farewell

I decided to celebrate my 6 week birthday by heading down to Florida for warmer weather and to see my Great Grandmother Gloria Rivera, who was in the hospital. I liked flying on the plane as you can see and I got so much attention from the Rivera clan. The place was crawling with family! Only Wilt Chamberlain has more family than I do.

Babies weren't really allowed in the hospital room, but I snuck in with my old man to meet my Great Grandmother. I also wanted to show her that I was wearing a dress she bought me shortly before she was hospitalized. I'm happy that I got to meet my Mama Gloria, but sad that it will be our last meeting since she passed a week later. My Dad tells me she was so loving, affectionate and a wonderful grandmother and person. In some ways she will aways be with me because she instilled that same love in our family. We will all miss her. Te quiero Mami!
