On the edge of 44: alive, healthy, blessed with the love of my family... This is me, no makeup, no filters, no artifice, no surgeries, no botox, no fillers, just me, very happy to see that my mom's genes are finally kicking in. Don't misunderstand me, my dad's a total hottie at whatever age he is... not gonna say his true age, lest he kill me, but his looks are dude's looks and when I look too much like him I feel I look more like a dude than I do a woman. Now that my mom's genes are kicking in, I look like a woman, not a woman's woman like she is, all glamour, all perfection, modelesque, a statue come to life to take our breath away, but comfortable in my own skin, with a playful, joyous glint in my eyes, finding myself, growing up with all it implies. This road has been hard, filled with lessons, unexpected disappointment and betrayals, unexpected solidarity, unexpected surprises good and bad all around... I thank my stars for my journey, rocks and all, because it's led me to this point and it will take me farther and make me better. #geminivibes #birthdaybabe #journeyto44 (at Miami, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA8XIAxgUuiYI0QiJb0bCrnOxDRbHShM8MFbns0/?igshid=or80up27ehgh
