10 things I love about Priscila

1.

Priscila is as beautiful on the inside as on the outside.

2.

Priscila loves to talk to me. We can talk for hours about anything and everything.

3.

Priscila was willing to be come a US Citizen.

It took her about 7 years to do it legally.

She left her family in Argentina and moved to a foreign country where everyone spoke a foreign language, where the culture was different and she did not know anyone.

One brave girl. [She was only 18 at the time]

4.

Priscila was willing to learn English and adapt to American ways very quickly.

5.

Priscila is bright and smart and could be anything she wanted to be but chose to be a stay-at-home-mom and take care of their 3 kids 4 and under. [wow!!]

6.

Priscial loves Mac. She supports him completely in his quest for his doctorate.

7.

Priscila is very talented. She can cook [we miss her B-Day cakes and empanada's]

She can sew, iron [that is a talent you know...she even irons her sheets.]

She keeps a tight ship, very clean and tidy house.

[Hard to do with the little ones]

She is the most organized person I know!!!!

8.

Priscila is so loving and caring. The Argentine culture is very grounded in her. She always think of other people and how she can make their life better or easier before she thinks of herself. She rallies around those in need. She is an "angel".

9.

Priscila is very friendly and makes friends easily. She loves people and is not judgemental. She also loves her Family in Argentina. They are very active in the gospel and good examples of our LDS faith. I am so grateful for her wonderful family who taught her to be so productive and kind. I love her mom who is one of the kindest woman I have ever met. We speak different languages but find a way to communicate.

10.

Priscila has treated me like her mother. She has accepted me with all my flaws. She is tender hearted, yet funny, she loves Mac and her children. She is so much fun to be around and brings so much to our family. We are so lucky to have Priscila in our family.

I could go on forever.

Priscila, Happy Birthday.

I love you so much.

Have a wonderful day.

I hope you get "Sunshine" so you can go to the beach.

I will pray for that.

Happy day!!!!!!!

Love, Mom

Priscila is really great. I'm amazed at the sacrifice she made to come here and marry Mac. What a life changing decision. How hard that would be to learn a new language and live in place so foreign to what you're used to. I love how Priscila can cook so good and is so neat and clean. She is always helping to get things done and she can really plan a party!
I love you Priscila!

Thank you! Thank you! I love you too. I really love talking to you. I really miss our walks. I can't wait to go back to Utah to visit. I really miss everyone and all the parties.
I love you very much and you really are a mom to me.
