Our Wednesday market has everything from fresh chickens to beautiful cut flowers. With these flowers, I can buy 4 bouquets for 14,000 pesos. That would be for about $7.00. It is no wonder that we always have a lot of fresh flowers in our home.
I have chosen the title "Hermona Patrona" because my husband has for many years affectionately called me La Patrona. In Spanish the word jefa means "she who is the boss". My husband, however, says that the word patrona refers to "she who commands". In other words, La Patrona is more powerful than La Jefa. Because we are serving on a mission, he now calls me "Hermana Patrona."
