I am reposting this video, which got all kinds of love this week on the Tiki Tiki, so that anybody who pops over here from the Spanglishbaby Blogging Carnival sees an update on the abuelito. The post I contributed to the carnival is from 2007…and not much has changed. My father continues to delight and offer unique lessons.

Witness here Papi and Maria playing pick-up sticks. He’s not acting. He’s being himself. 100% It is why my house is very quiet when he is gone. Also notice my kid cheating her 72-year-old Abuelito in the game.

Didn’t want one and there was no dinero.
I went through a mocosa phase when I didn’t want to speak Spanish and I longed for plain peaceful vanilla.

And so, I liked this video.

Forgive the length. Cubans are long-winded. I am working on uploading some excerpts.
