Sunday has rolled around once again, which means it's time for another round of Sunday Citar—a tradition I absolutely adore! For those who aren't familiar, Citar is "to quote" in Spanish, and that's exactly what we're doing here—sharing quotes that inspire, make us laugh, or even bring a tear to our eyes.
As I sit down to reflect on this week, I’m reminded of something Joyce Maynard once wrote: *"It’s not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can’t tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself."* It’s such a poignant reminder of how deeply intertwined our growth is with theirs.
This past weekend was filled with excitement as my daughter took part in her very first performance. The anticipation was palpable as parents gathered, cameras poised, ready to capture every magical moment. Watching her little feet shuffle across the stage, arms flailing slightly offbeat, brought tears to my eyes—but not because of disappointment. Quite the contrary! She gave it her all, stretching beyond anything she'd ever done before. Even when she paused mid-dance to yawn or stared blankly at times, I found myself laughing through my tears. Her effort was pure joy, and seeing her try so hard made my heart swell with pride.
The room buzzed with energy, decorated in vibrant tiki-themed colors. My youngest stood on tiptoe, trying to keep up with his older siblings. Baby brother cheered enthusiastically from the audience, shouting "Eee-yah!" every time he spotted his sister. By the end of the show, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house—not just among the kids but also among us proud parents.
Daddy surprised her afterward by presenting her with her very first bouquet of red roses. It was such a sweet gesture, one that perfectly captured the magic of the evening. Cheeks hurting from smiling so much, I couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude for moments like these.
