The story behind "Lulu"...
Lulu, was my grandmother's nickname. She was so beautiful! Her Spanish heritage just made her shine! She was unique! Wavy hair, porcelain skin, big dark brown eyes, a curvy diva! She was classy, fashionable, and had the most awesome array of apparel and jewelry! She never missed an appointment at the hair salon! All her clothes (and mine) were from one the town's most prestigious boutique! Yup! she was the Spanish version of Marilyn Monroe, so stylish and sparkly! Yet she was also so modest, believed in God, always a fervent Catholic, and had such a big heart! She taught me about good manners and etiquete... My grandma raised me up until she passed away, when I was 10. I truly believe Lulu, my beloved grandma is the most beautiful angel in heaven ... always watching after me.
So here's to you grandma, hoping to make you proud, up there in heaven!
