Come join us in our nesting place.

Three more months and I’ll be seeing you.  Stay healthy and happy!

I am so excited na to see and hold you. Pops is, too. And most of all, Big Bro Matt! 

Soon we’ll add another warm body in our family photo. *smiles* smiles*

BTW, the things in this photo are some of my son Matt’s school work/projects. =)

It’s been six years since I made a vow to love and to hold someone –til death do us part. How time flies indeed.

It wasn’t all bed of roses but it’s been an enriching journey. A journey of self-realization and learning. Actually, it still is. With me and my love being of different personalities, I can’t help but be glad and feel blessed that we complement each other -so well and in so many ways. So different, yet looking at the same direction. It’s amazing really.

And I just feel truly blessed to be with someone I totally respect and absolutely love. (So okay I’ll stop there because I feel I’ll be getting more mushy if I add more.)

I saw you -finally and for the first time.

Heard you.

I was misty-eyed.

You cannot imagine the cascades of emotions going on inside me while I watched and heard you.

I cannot wait for the time to come when I can hold you in my arms.

I love you.

Our bedtime companions - me and my son’s. We’ve read the 2nd and 4th book countless times, sometimes for nth times in a given day as these are my son’s favorite books at the moment.

That first book (Change Your Life Without Getting Out Of Bed by Sark) in the pile,  one of latest acquisition, is a personal favorite.  With its colorful text, cute illustrations and sensible yet unique ideas,  it’s so fun to read it again and again. I also read it to my 3-year old  (and recreate stories from it) because he likes to look at the colorful illustrations.

After two hectic weeks of research and inquiries, the tickets are finally issued, the hotel is booked and the payment is made.  In a week, my family will be going for a trip.

I’m thankful for getting cheap tickets. I’m thankful that our finances can allow us this short trip. I’m thankful that we can have time for a little respite from our work.  I’m thankful that I can bring my son along. I’m thankful for blogging money -I’m spending some during this trip.

Now I’ll just have to pray for weather and health conditions  to cooperate with us.

Exactly a week ago, we rushed my son to the hospital (and stayed there for 5 days). It was the worst asthma attack ever. It was a nightmare to see my son fighting for every breath he takes. He was really in bad shape that he had to be nebulized every 2 hours after admission. But dear son is better now - he’s actually running around the house while I’m keyboarding now.

I’m thankful for the strength God gave me to bear the unbearable.

For his doctor for taking good care of Matt. For the nurses who were so gentle with him and who became his friends (they were so entertained with Matt’s antics).

For the medicine that helped alleviate his condition.

For this rockin’ book. It is Matt’s favorite and we had so much fun reading it while in the hospital.

For my sister and my parents who helped me -and are always helping me- take care of my son.

For God’s mercy and healing.

For a great insurance company. There was a slight delay in the processing but we were 100% covered and I didn’t fork a single centavo for the hospital bills.

Also, thanks to those who visited my blogs despite my absence (btw, I am always autoposting).
