About me: I am married to THE BEST husband in the world, who has made my life better and happier in every way possible. We have been together for 9-1/2 years, and it only gets better with time:) I am a very happily married mother of three wonderful kids, ages 25, 16, and 14. My oldest son, Brian, is in the Air National Guard after serving four years active duty in the Air Force, and he is stationed in Boise, Idaho. He was deployed to Afghanistan last summer and may be deployed again this summer. He is getting ready to graduate from Boise State and is usually on the Dean's List. He also works at the computer help desk also at Boise State. He is married to a beautiful young lady, Melanie, who I am very proud to call my daughter-in-law:) Our daughter, Eden, is 16, and she is a sophomore honor student. She is the best daughter any mother could ever ask for, and I am very proud of her. Our youngest son, Michael(KJ) is 14 and is the spitting image of his father, and is also an honor student. I am very, very proud of all my kids and their high moral standards that Keith and I have worked hard to instill in all three of them. They are all very loving and kind. We all have a strong belief in God, and I feel that God has answered all of our prayers in bringing us so easily together as a family. We all feel very blessed in our lives and never take for granted that we are so very lucky to live free here in the United States thanks to all of those great men and women who are serving in the Armed Forces and those Veterans who have served in the past. I am very thankful each and every day that I have the privilege of being married to an Army Veteran and that he served our country bravely in the first Gulf War and returned to be the best father I've EVER seen and the best husband any woman could ever hope to have! I have three beautiful sisters, who I am also very proud of and two of them are teachers. Between the three sisters, I have a niece and four nephews:) My parents are very hard working and always tried to give us a better life than what they had. They just celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this past fall:) I was raised in a loving and happy home, and my parents have always been there anytime any of us needed them. They are the reason that we all have been able to pass down to our kids the love of God and country.

Dear Debbie, another year is gone. Thanks for the affection and for never forgotten to feed our friendship with your comments: images, music and thoughts that so many times, made all the difference. The tree of Space grows every second and with it, our circle of friends.
I' d like to send a personalized message to each of you, because, gradually, we perceive a few of the essence of each one, this wonderful diversity that we track. But as I say, the reading may be the same, but the journey is individual. That is what matters, the value of being unique. Christmas is coming, with it feelings of love, solidarity and companionship intensify. What makes me happy is that surely we will not stop here, for behold, I do not know if motivated by ecological awareness, by the example of Bhutan with its index of happiness and many others, we are learning to love others no date or appointment. It's a continuous exercise, a learning, a evolution.
Let us be the generation of love, today and always! Claudia.

“There are women who make things better..simply by showing up. There are women who make things happen. There are women who make a difference And women who make us smile :) There are women who do not make excuses. Women who cannot be replaced. There are women of wit and wisdom who through strength and courage make it through. There are women who change the world every day.....”
"Your Christ is Hebrew. Your pizza is Italian. Your holidays are international. Your democracy is Greek. Your language is Latin. Your coffee is Brazilian. Your numbers are Arabs. Your car is Japanese. Your watch is Swiss. Your beer is German… and… Your neighbor is the only foreigner? " (Anonymous)
The poem is a call to turn our eyes to our neighbor, who is on our side, or the next corner, on overpasses in the neighborhood closer. In fact, this neighbor can be anywhere on the street, neighborhood, city, country and even the world. I don’t know the authorship of the poem, which has been signed as "Anonymous", but what matters is that his call seems have been listened through initiatives in various parts of the world.
I'm happy with the successful experiences of entrepreneurs whose businesses are focused on the socio-environmental.
