Can y'all believe that my Catholic papa's favorite character in this book is the tender-hearted drag queen who is openly himself in the middle of the 1940s? It really speaks to how great Luis is! Welcome to the stage Luis Diaz, aka Lucy Diamond or Guadalupe Angelo, everyone's favorite drag queen, uncle, or book club friend! Not afraid to call someone out when they're being an asshole but also not afraid to forgive someone when they've made an effort. He wears zoot suits and sparkling gowns with equal confidence. He lights up any room he enters. I adore him. As his playlist description reads:
The White House's drag queen. The only man Preston truly loved. Proudest one in the family. Unabashedly himself.
Ok so this week I'm doing two songs, I forgot mother's day in Mexico was on the 10th😬 and then of course mothers day in the US is this Sunday. So first off is Las Mananitas, a traditional song that is played on mothers day.
Also I'm gonna attempt to sing this one for my mom this weekend so wish me luck.

Second song is from Siggno, it's called Mama. The singer Jesse Turner wrote this song for his mother and honestly it never fails to make me cry. It's such a good song and if you are curious about the lyrics I recommend looking them up
