She knew that she was connecting with her family on a new level, and that she was honoring the traditions that had been passed down to her.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne Sunday night, as they sat at the table, Alejandra looked at her Abuelita and said, \"Abuelita, thank you for teaching me Spanish.
