From Lesley De Dios:

Happy Birthday to my EC Mama! 
Looking back at those photos is so bittersweet. I am incredibly grateful for the time, adventures, experiences, food, etc. we were able to share but sad that we’re unable to travel anymore! Thank you for sharing your son with me for the past 5 years and even more so – opening up your home to us these past 5 months. I’ve been reflecting on how unique this time is having us all here living together; the highs and lows and everything in between, we’re able to share it together and that’s pretty special. My mom is quite jealous that you have all us ‘kids’ under one roof! Though this birthday isn’t ideal, know that you are loved and appreciated. Thank you for putting up with us, all of our idiosyncrasies and weirdness – we love you! Happy Birthday 🙂
