"maldonado" poems
When times are getting rough ,
I smile,
When time seems like not enough,
I smile.
When roads seem endless,
I smile,
When I feel in distress
I smile.
When I feel like giving up
I smile.
When I start to look at things close-up
I smile.
All the things that can make me smile,
Don’t always seem to be worthwhile,
But if I keep smiling
And hoping for the best
I know I can leave it up to God for the rest.

BIRTHDAY by Jules
A few years ago, on this date (March 10), there was a birth that, unbeknownst to me would change my life forever. I met her in high school and thought she was stuck up, then ran into her around the neighborhood by chance. We dated a while and decided to get married. We survived the Army, Air Force, temporary assignents as well as remote ones, wars, accidents, etc. She gave me three beautiful, well behaved, down to earth boys. Words cannot describe how proud I am of my wife Anette Maldonado, and how fortunate I am to still be able to be by her side. Happy Birthday Loving Wife, can't imagine my life without you...and don't want to. Love you to the moon and back!

This day, (Nov 3) 27 years and 8 months ago (approximately), we got the surprise of a lifetime. We were on the pill but got pregnant regardless. Four and a half months later we get stunned once more although we didn't think that possible, TWINS? I yelled. On November 3, 1991, Homestead AFB, FL, at 4:58 pm Julian blessed our family and at 5:02 pm Dennis completed the blessing and made our family whole. They were a month early, Julian weighed 5lbs 10oz while Dennis weighed only 5lbs, they only spent an extra day in the hospital and came home with us sooner and stronger than we expected. They were born fighters, beating odds and obstacles and exceeding expectations and goals in education, career, and life that continue to make their parents extremely proud and happy...beyond belief!!! Happy Birthday Julian Maldonado and Dennis (Linuz) Maldonado, the best sons anyone can have, I feel really honored to be your father!
