In Alicia's article "She's Only Five", I found it so emotional, but yet full of hope. The way Alicia described the emotions and hardships this little girl is going through. Natalia, this brave little girl, mentions how she hadn't seen her mom in "forever". That made my heart drop as soon as I read it, making me realize how lucky I am to have my parents. Alicia also does a wonderful job of writing her experience with little Natalia. Alicia's article caught my attention and made me feel what she felt when she first met Natalia. Thank you Alicia for writing this wonderful article, reminding us that you can live a normal life even without the ones you love.
