Maricela looks through the mail as her youngest child Kassandra blows bubbles in their living room on April 27, 2009. Making $4.25 an hour plus tips, Maricela struggled to make ends meet. "I try going to school, but I can’t really take the time to go to school because I would be leaving my kids unattended," she told me in 2009, "so yeah, pretty much I live here because I can’t afford here anything else."
