Was looking at some old pics and these pics caught my eye. Would have started crying
and bawling my eyes out. I miss her so much!!! There are times that I just wanted to call
her. I know she sees me and watches over Adee. She really loved Adee so much!!!
I miss you Ate Beth.. Now more than ever..Forever and Ever!!!

My Sister

My sister in town. She'll be here for a month.

While I'm really not close to her for reasons

I don't want to elaborate on. I want us to be

a bit closer. I don't know how. I don't know

where to start. All I know is that we both
like Twilight. I sent her 2 of my best

shirts. I hope she'll like them rebuilding

takes time. I also don't want to force anything.

It will make it seem like its not genuine. 
Slowly but surely with baby steps I'm sure

we'll get there eventually

Thank You

Sa lahat ng mga nag email, nag YM, nag message sa blog ko at nagdasal para sa amin maraming salamat po sa pakikiramay nyo. At the moment we're trying to hold on and cling to one another for strength at this very difficult time. The remains will be arriving in 2 weeks kaya we're preparing for the funeral here. Thanks so much to my sisters sa e-group ko SE, PE and N@W your support really means so much to me dahil di lang tayo basta nag email we're one big happy family. Singit ko lang I had a dream na nakikita ko pictures nila and then i keep hearing the word scrapbook.. Di ko kaya i scrapbook pics nila masyadong masakit. I will do it eventually but not now..

Malapit Na..

Nakaempake na lahat.. Yung last batch ng mga ipapa ship na gamit
kukunin na bukas.Yung mga gamit na iiwanan naibilin na sa mga taong
karapat dapat pagbilinan.. Excited akong umuwi and yet medyo
nalungkot ako kasi nagkaron na kami ng mga kaibigan. Pero sa lahat lahat
ng mga ma miss ko apat na tao ang mamiss ko talaga nang sobra sobra.

Si Grishan sya ang kapatid na sumunod sa akin close kami dati
pero naging mas close talaga kami kasi kami talaga nagdadamayan.
Susunduin nya kami para makapag weekend kami sa kanila.
Natulog sya dito tapos sya ang gumising nang madaling araw
nung umiiyak si Adrianne para lang makatulog ako. Pag may
mali akong ginagawa sya unang nagsasabi sa akin.Kaya nga nung
may nagsabi sa akin na may sinabi daw sya tungkol sa akin
di ako naniniwala.I could go on and on.. Pero i know magkikita pa
rin naman kami. Saka may Vonage naman sa Pilipinas kaya okay lang.
Pero alam ko bukas pag hinatid nya ako talagang maiiyak ako.

Si Brox ay pamangkin ko love na love ko talaga sya kasi sya ang
one and only pamangkin ko. Mabait na bata sya, matalino and
very sweet. Hayyy I will miss him saka talagang love na love sya
ni Joshwa.

Hazel-- Na meet ko sya kasi through another friend and we hit
it off right away. Ninang sya ni Adrianne.. I will miss the fact
that she's just a phone call away.

Ate Beth--- She's not just my sister in law.. She's my sister
na talaga. I love her so much.. She's the Ate that I've always
wanted. Mas close ako sa kanya kasya kay Philbert.
I will also miss our weekend visits.

I'm looking forward to starting a new chapter of our lives in
the Philippines. Things are just going to get better and
I know it..

Still Packing

Di pa rin tapos pag iimpake ng gamit..Si Philbert na lang
pinapagawa ko kasi mas magaling sya pag iimpake at
pag aayos ng mga gamit. Hopefully sa pupuntahan
namin medyo magtatagal na kami dun. Within this week
namin malalaman kung kailan ba talaga ang alis namin
di pa ako nagsabi sa school. Kasi baka magsabi ako
tapos di pa pala kami aalis agad mawawalan pa nang
school placement ni Joshwa.

I will let you guys know soon kung saan kami pupunta.
This week i-blog ko na rin yun. Wait ko lang yung actual
ticket para sure na sure na talaga.

Packing

We're currently trying to pack frantically
because Philbert has a new assignment.
If the plans push through we have to leave in 2 or 3 weeks
at the most. Will discuss the details if and when we get there.

I never realized packing could be so stressful.
Grabe!! tempers are flaring up well mostly his temper.
Talagang naniniwala na talaga ako sa power of the spoken
word. I was just chatting with a friend last December
she was telling me that she hates the packing and unpacking
and moving around. I told her I want that kind of adventure.
Tapos eto na nangyari na... Hayyyyy!!!! ayoko na pala..
We have to uproot Joshwa na naman. Pero this is for the
family eh.This is the career break that Philbert needs.

Please pray for us na lang that everything
falls into place.

Thanks for the Greetings

We had a great time celebrating Joshwa's 7th Birthday.
My sister and her son came over
to join us for a special dinner.
We had a special dinner of Crispy Pata, Sisig, Rice
and Inihaw na Pusit and Cake.

I was excited that he was going to have a school
party but he got stuck at home because he got sick. .
Wala namang fever but the colds got very
bad hirap sya makahinga.

Joshwa sang Happy Birthday to the tune of
Wowoweee!!!! If you know that show
and know the theme song you can just imagine
how cute it is.. Wala syang video because
it happened all of a sudden and knowing
Joshwa he would never dare do that
if he knew he was being recorded.


A few days after his birthday we received
news that would really change our lives.
(No we're not pregnant again!!!)
Will be posting the news as soon everything
is finalized. Wont say anything yet kasi baka
maudlot..

Happy Birthday Honey!!!

You know, there have been times when people have told
me they regret the way
things have turned out in their life.

And they've told me where they feel they went wrong:
'If only I'd gone in on that deal.'

'If only I'd got on that flight.'
But I don't look at it that way. I have not one regret.
I say that, because 8 years ago, the most wonderful
person in the world came into my life.
And that person has made this life of ours wonderful.
So for me, there are no IF ONLYs.
And the WHAT-IFS are only sad...True we have had our moments
that tested our marriage and each other. In the end I don't think I could ever
find someone who loves me and cares about me as much
he does. He is the the one that one that owns my heart,
the one that is the calm after my storm, the breeze that carries
me home, the one that anchors me.

Happy Birthday Dearest Honey!!!

Mamaya Na...

Mamaya na ang binyag hayy salamat mangyayari na rin ito..
Dapat talaga natutulog na ako. Pero may aayusin na lang ako
bago matulog.I thought we couldn't pull this off but we did..
Kanina habang nasa labas kami biglang tumawag yung
restaurant kung saan gaganapin ang reception.
Di daw puede sa place nila kasi daw sarado kitchen nila
kasi may nasira sa kusina nila.. Buti na
lang may alam si Philbert na ibang chinese restaurant na
masarap din naman kaya dun na lang kami nag dinner
tapos nag pa reserve na rin kami ng 2 tables. Habang nag
dinner kami taranta ako sa pag text sa mga tao to let them
know na may change of plans.

Will definitely be posting photos of the binyag.

My Trio

Binyag..updates

Finally nagawa na namin ang seminar.. The baptism will be done
next Sunday. December 23 tamang tama ika 2nd month ni
Adrianne. May slot kasi na open and sabi baka 2 or 3 families
lang ang magpapabinyag.Naisip ko agad ayan maraming time
magpa picture for the scrapbook.Thankfully open pa yung
photographer na kausap ko.

We will be hosting a small dinner for those that
will be coming. Pero the major event, the

reception (parang kasal ano) will be on January kasabay na
rin ng celebration ng 7th birthday ni Kuya Joshwa.


Grabe na ito parang production number ang binyag na ito

sobra sobra ang logistics involved. Pero salamat at
evertyhing is falling into place.


Ang kailangan na lang bilhin this week ay damit ni Philbert
and Joshwa. Gusto ko sana pareho sila nang polo.


2 sets of godparents will be there this Sunday.

Namely:

Nets---- My sister
Kuya Ariel-- Brother in Law
Floyd---- Friend ni Philbert
Ces--- Neighbor namin



Karamihan ng Ninangs nya are based in the Philippines
there are Ninangs na based in the US pero di sila makakapunta.


I know na maski malayo sila they will still be able to give
guidance and be great ninangs kasi there's always
technology to help bridge the gap.

Still Here..

Im still here.. I had a great mothers day. Eventhough
a few days before that were a bit stressful akala ko
di na kakayanin. The Lord has blessed me with strength,
humility and lots and lots of patience. I received
a text message from Papa. Just greeting me happy
mothers day and he said I love you Anak. I was
really touched and so moved to tears. Kasi di
kami nagsasabihan ng I love you ni Papa. But he
knows that i love him and i know that he loves me
kaya lang di lang kami vocal. That text message
will now occupy a permanent place in my inbox.

Spent the day with my sisters, nephew and my son last Saturday.
Love my new wardrobe courtesy of my 2 gorgeous, generous, smart,
beautiful and sexy sisters.I immediately packed away my old and
frumpy clothes to make room for the new one.

Finally was able to eat at Cheescake Factory last Saturday. The food
was great the service wasn't I guess dahil madaming tao pero
service isn't something that should be compromised.
Malamang matagal na muna ako bago kumain dun.
Next on my list is Applebees. Hmmm kailan kaya? bahala na
Right now one of my favorites is Red Lobster
(2 pa lang ako nakapunta) pero i love the food and the service.

We took Joshwa to the $1 theater last Friday and today
while he was a bit antsy he tried his best and we survived it.
He was squirming in his seat but I'm glad he didn't cry and
didn't get out of his seat. Pirates of the Carribean here we come!

A GIFT

Thanks to Diane for this beautiful gift!!
