Birthday Boxing

This time last year I was hand making party decorations, cooking up edible starfish & seashells, and readying everything in preparation for Maya's "Under the Sea" 5th birthday. Fast forward a year, (it's crazy how things change) tonight I'm boxing up her favorite toys, gifts from friends and a variety of "comforts" from home, like Peanut butter and Real Cheerios, to bring my daughter for her 6th birthday. In less than 48 hours I'll be in route to visit my family!!!! Soooooo excited to see them and be able to hold them! That is the best gift I could ask for, but I'm pretty sure Maya's going to be super excited to open up her giant birthday box!

Department of Homeland Security Rips Away Children and Husband From American Mother

Dear readers,

I would like you to watch how the largest Spanish television network aired my story of how the Department of Homeland Security has ripped apart my family.

Please pass this story on to your friend and family.  Please email your State Senator to help me get an appointment to see Jeh Johnson, the Secretary of Homeland Security and Eric Holder, the U.S. Attorney General.  Senator list is here: Contact Your U.S. Senator

Special thanks to Michael FX of New Zealand for adding the subtitles and Jerry in Washington State for translating the clip.
