Reminiscing - Nostalgia # 45

PhotobucketMy youngest sister texted me the other week to ask me if she could go home for the weekend. I told her that she can. I don't know why she has to ask permission from me but I do appreciate it.  When she came back in Legazpi, she updated me with what is going on at our home in Donsol.  It usually depressed me when they   talk to me as it is always  associated with problem.  

Anyhow, she told me that my eldest  niece, the daughter of my brother who passed away two years ago, is graduating from elementary as first honor, congratulations Bhim!.  I sent money  last weekend  for Mama, my niece, and for my sister's allowance and  other school fees.  I feel so bad for my brother's  daughters.   They will grow up without their father.  I just wish that I am a millionaire so I can send all of them to a good school.  But I guess the best thing I could do is to try to help them as much as I could.

I did not have time to scan the pictures today as I am sick so I just snap this from the album.
Pictures taken when we first see my family.  My brother was still alive then, he  took the kids for a rid in his  motorcycle around our  neighborhood.  The one in the end is my niece.  Three months after that, he passed away from a motorcycle accident.
On the lighter note, hubby and I reminisce the first day we've seen each other in person.  Yesterday was the date, 8 years ago.  I can vividly remember the  combination of pain and bliss, the first touch, the first kiss.  Imagine submitting yourself to a person that  you just meet for the first time although we've chatted for six months before he came, I was still nervous that time.  What I was thinking though is for me to get pregnant right away so that if our relationship doesn't work, I will at least have a baby to treasure.  Glad that God was on our side that time, He helped us get through the tough times of being separated and now we are not only a couple but a family!

Glad you are doing well na, Rose. Take it easy.

Ang bait mo namang kapatid, di nakakalimot sa pamilyang naiwan sa Pinas.

The first kiss and first touch sure was a memory to cherish a lifetime.

Thanks for sharing.

Awwww, that's sweet. Reminded me of mine and hubby's first meeting too and that's after 6 months of chatting and phone calls. I wasn't that nervous though because I already know what kind of person he is and I felt like we've known each other for years na. :)

Anyway, how tall are u sis?

ganon naman tayo di ba? we help our family the best we can. that's one of our traits as Filipinos. Hehehe, pareho pala tayo ng katwiran, when I got pregnant with Roan, kahit kako di na kami magkatuluyan ni Rodney basta meron akong anak na i treasure.

David said...

Lulu said...

EJ said...

I am playing Mrs. Wide Feet, sorry for my absences. Hey, I am wondering what happen to my physique lol..

Mel Alarilla said...

Super slim and sexy mo nung una kayong nagkita ni John. Kaya naman hindi niya napigilang mahumaling sa iyo, hehehe. Natatawa ako sa sinabi mo na sana mabuntis ka agad para kung magkahiwalay man kayo ay may baby ka na agad na maganda. Parang istorya ni Bakekang na nagpabuntis sa isang kanong puti at ang bunga nun ay si Crystal. But God was protecting you then as He is protecting you now. John married you and you got Rylie and EJ, the fruits of your love story. Thank for the tender love story. Kakakilig, hehehe. God bless you all always.

The photo looks so cute. Oh those courting days. Great thing, that your decisions turned out to be the most wonderful one to happen to in your life. Otherwise, iba siguro ang outcome. God bless you.
