Baby Shower for Lils and Lau

By | Celebrations, For kids | One Comment

I can’t believe that at my age of 41, I am still attending baby showers for friends my age!  🙂  But it’s a nice feeling because it makes us feel young 🙂

Previous entry:  Baby Shower and Fondue October 13, 2008 

I am delayed in posting this as this happened last Sunday and today Lils already popped.  Lils is in a bit of a delicate situation and we pray that everything will go well.  And soon in a few months, Lau will pop too

The Ideal Couple

By | Celebrations | 4 Comments

I say they are the ideal couple because we and many other friends look up to them for being so sweet and so loving to each other all these years!  Mom was 19 and Dad was 20 when they got married and through all those years, Mom and Dad were only separated ONCE when Mom had to go somewhere with Lola and she could not sleep!  She never did it again after that.  They call each other “plangs” which means “palangga” in Bisaya or “dear.”  Mom takes care of Dad so well, he is so lucky.  She always thinks of him in whatever she does and makes sure Dad always gets what he needs.  She adapts to him and adjusts if needed.  Dad on the other hand has been and is a very good and loyal husband to Mom. He lets Mom lead and easily follows and supports Mom.  

Happy 44th Anniversary to Dad and Mom!!

I love looking at vintage photos of them when they were younger…. they look like movie stars! 🙂
