Her name was Jeannette, Jeannettie, Nettle Poodle, Net, and Brunnetty, but to me she was my precious "Mijita". My mija was so beautiful and so nice and warm and wonderful. Her eyes would make people stop and stare. Her pretty voice was so soothing to me especially when I was sick in bed and she would call me. She would always call me, "Ma." She was kind and thoughtful. She would somehow find ways to make me happy even though she lived so far away from this San Joaquin Valley in California. My mija was an amazing person. If she were alive and was here in this hot city of Fresno, California, she would instantly say, "Ma, let's go to the beach for the day or let's go eat ice-cream. Her favorite was Mint Chip from Baskin Robbins.
I wish everyone that follows my blog would have had the opportunity to meet her and to have the pleasure of knowing an absolutely amazing young beautiful lady.
I am blessed that she walked into my life at the age of 14.....We met at a bus stop going to Sequoia middle school....I was crying at the bus stop and here she came...asking me what was wrong...I knew that day I had met a amazing person, that became my dear friend.
