at the final rehearsal last week...
after the final rehearsal, she let her hair down (then up)...
Saturday morning, my cousin Elisa came by to do the hair and make-up...
Later that afternoon, she chanted melodies from the scroll. She delivered a speech wrought with poise and maturity. After the service, we ate and danced, and danced some more. The next morning, in a softer light...she proudly displayed some of her henna markings.

@Titi Luisita: We celebrated her becoming a Bat Mitzvah. It was such a wonderful day.
The family clan, along with neighbors and other friends from far away came together to celebrate. We had 150 guests. Luisito's son, Enrique was the photographer during the reception and as soon as I get the photos I will start editing and can post some of them. Tere Longo danced to Michael Jackson's Thriller. Mateco stayed up 'til the party shut down at midnight.
I miss those awesome family gatherings....your daughter has become a beautiful young lady....xoxo
