Riza's Blog

I started this blog in 2006 shortly after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. I lived there for nearly 15 years, ever since I moved there to attend college at Loyola University. After the storm, I was separated from most of my family & friends, who are still spread out all over the country. This is the place where I share my thoughts & experiences with them since I have relocated in California, lived in Los Angeles for 4 years and am now in Costa Mesa, CA. And my journey continues.

Happy 12th Birthday Jacob!

Happy Birthay Jacob!!! I can't believe that you are growing so fast Jacob-- I am sure by now you are definitely taller than me too! I really wish that we could be there to celebrate with you but that's going to have to wait until we are all there in July! I am so proud of what a young gentleman you have become- so smart, super funny and so active! I am a proud aunt and God Mother! Love you so much!
