I have lived in 19 different houses in my life, some for as little as 1 month. : Mexico city (3), Guadalajara (2), Playa del Carmen (7) , Cabo San Lucas (1) Riverside, California (2) : Lake Louise (3), Airdrie (1) Without including my direct family, I have had more than 20 room mates, women and men.... I learned to adapt, to respect, to tolerate, to listen and learn, to speak up when things were not cool and to be grateful and celebrate when things were great. Empathy was necessary because in a few occasions my roommates were not necessarily my friends, we were co-workers living in the same house and even though we were different, we were family in a strange sort of way. I am grateful for the path I’ve walked, for the lessons learned and the people I’ve met in my journey. I have recently realized that I have lived a nomad lifestyle and as a nomad I’ve had to pay the price of not being able to create deep roots, my roots are easily transferred into any place, I’m like a plant that blooms in water and I’ve learned to live and embrace the here and the now. Today we are here, tomorrow we don’t know...

Yoga and meditation is on the top of the list of our unschooling curriculum, we have practiced yoga together for 3 years. I feel grateful that I introduced yoga to their lives at an early age, we all work better when we practice mindfulness and gratitude. Today’s practice was: Mermaids and Pirates (week 1) from @cosmickidsyoga video available on YouTube and this practice talks about fear and big feelings. After 40 minutes of yoga they asked me to do more... it’s fun, interactive and easy!

If you look closely inside you will find joy in the most random and simple things. I’m passionate and focus my whole energy on things that bring happiness but also I admit I can go the opposite way and gift my energy to thoughts, things and issues that do not serve me or bring me joy. The beautiful thing is that we are responsible for our own happiness and we have the POWER to move, shift, change and outgrow the things that do not gift us happiness. It is NOT easy, it take...s work, one must dig in and ask questions. I must place my body in the right place in order to achieve all of the above. Yoga is my therapy, breathing, meditating, quieting the mind, listening to the heart and the petitions of our soul is the only way I get answers. Today, I’m grateful for my body, my mind, my soul and my transparent heart. See more

It hurts to be left out...

I’m not short. I’m fun sized, bite sized, vertically efficient, adorable, dainty and great at hugging. #petitemaman #chaparritacuerpodeuva

Last night we went for a stroll on Stephen Ave. we saw a young man standing with a sign that said: Free photos for a follow on Instagram. So I am now following him on Instagram... #stephenavenue

As we strive for a happier and more fulfilling life, we can draw a lot of inspiration from water. Despite being soft and humble, it cuts through hard rocks because of its patience and persistence. #onedayatatime #theglezlife

You are an inspiration to me. The way I do things now are influenced by the fact that I am a mom, your mom. I wish for you to see life as one big learning curve. You will make mistakes and have some regrets (when you are a little older, I might just share a few of mine with you), and that’s okay. Your mistakes, regrets, and need for a do-over are what refine you as a human being. Don’t be scared to fail. Failing is a part of success. Just don’t be scared to try. Let others teach you, but also teach others. Continue learning throughout your life, as there is always something new to learn. #camilaglez #theglezlife

Mis hijos solo tienen un par de abuelitos y aunque están lejos cuando están, están al 100, presentes, entusiastas y con espíritu jovial y siempre con la mejor disposición aunque en la noche estén muriendo de cansancio Los amo Abi y Abu, feliz día de los abuelos que bendición tenerlos en nuestras vidas.

Today we went from zero to hero in our basement by turning our messy space into a beautiful place for the kids to enjoy. Thank you @luis_abes for always going with the flow and then adding some extra magic and love. #homeschoolspaces #unschoolers #theglezlife @ Airdrie, Alberta
