Dear Primos and friends:
As always a full issue with many thoughtful essays, historical and genealogical tidbits.
Please do read the important announcement located directly under the table of contents concerning anticipated Somos Primos changes for 2014.
Briefly, with so many new resources on online for family history researchers, I want to move in the direction of encouraging readers to write and share their family histories online with Somos Primos readers.
In this issue, Elida Vela Vombaur, Ben Romero and I each wrote about incidences of the healing practices of our grandmothers. Please feel invited to send your stories and memories along on this topic, or on anything else for the Cuentos column.
Have a wonderful Cincdo de Mayo. Be sure and read Dr. Lily Rivera's essay on why Mexican Americans celebrate the Cinco de Mayo.
God bless . . . . . . Mimi
