Description

Hello! My name is Mamen. I have an 11 year old son named Bosco and a dog named Dora. I work as a physical therapist in a nursing home. Bosco during the week, he sleeps with his grandmother (my mother) because I get up early. It is she who is responsible for taking him to school in the morning. Afternoons, evenings and weekends, Bosco spends it with me.
