She took care of me. My grandma took me to see my father and my brothers. My father would not speak to me because of what my mother did. The first time I was married I was 13. My wife was 12. My grandma wrote a letter to my mother and she came to the marriage. Everyone said we were too young, including the judge. Many people do not know my real name is Ramón Roberto Isla Caballero. The “Isla” represents the island of Cuba. In the 1970s, the world did not ROBERTO ISLA CABALLERO Groundcover vendor No. 360 know the true depths of the sea. I saw a submarine in Cuba for the first time; it was from the Soviet Union. It was like the Titanic. En Español: En los años 1970 el mundo no conocía la verdadera historía del mar. Un hombre de la edad en avanzada como primer ministro de un barco como el Titani dego a vordo un niño sin escuela y le poso solamente el nombre Ramón al conocer un significado de la Isla no supo que aker con la madre sin cariño al cual avandono. Las abuelas no supierón que hacer solamente callarón y al miran un padre no comprendieron que solante miro y callo.

Baseball May 10, I attended the EMU baseball game at Oestrike Stadium versus Bowling Green. Eastern won 10-9, Go Eagles! I noticed something in the outfield, some sort of memorial. Later, I found that it was dedicated to former player Michael Sacha. Eastern will never forget him and they pay tribute to him with this image. He was a player in 2007-08 and after graduating, he was Kid Rock’s personal assistant. He passed away in 2016 in Nashville, Tennessee due to an ATV accident. Let’s give a moment of silence to Michael … Thank you, Groundcover readers, and have a good day! Lena's first birthday My baby's first birthday is finally coming.
