We all went to the airport (NAIA – Ninoy Aquino International Airport) last Monday because our mother will be going back to Saudi Arabia. Our father is there already and he’ll meet mom up when she arrives in there.

Nanay will be back back December to spend the holidays here in the Philippines. Father will be back April 2010.

Fast fact about Saudi Arabia:

Saudi Arabia (officially Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, also called simply Arabia, Arabic: المملكة العربية السعودية‎, al-Mamlaka al-ʻArabiyya as-Suʻūdiyya), is an Arab country and the largest country of the Arabian Peninsula. It is bordered by Jordan on the northwest, Iraq on the north and northeast, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates on the east, Oman on the southeast, and Yemen on the south. The Persian Gulf lies to the northeast and the Red Sea to its west. It has an estimated population of 27.6 million, and its size is approximately 2,150,000 square kilometres (830,000 sq mi).

Cheers!

Been here at the St. Michael Family Hospital (Marilao) for 2 days and this is the second night that Tita Mariz and I will be spending here.

Nanay just had her gallbladder surgery (Lap Choly is what they call it, removing of the gallbladder and the stone that comes with it).

The good news is, the dangerous part is done. She is now resting in her suite and is scheduled to be checked out tomorrow, Sunday at 10:00am

Tatay will be going to Germany tonight too. We hope his mind is at peace during his travel

Good night!

I’d like to greet my father a very happy birthday to him. May he have a long and healhty life.  Love you.

It’s July already! We are more than halfway in 2009! A few more months and we’ll be celebrating holiday season again… (for Catholics, of course).

Anyway, this is the first post in the month of July.. I am going to share to you a couple of weird holidays that are being celebrated in the month of July.. no, not that 4rth of July holiday or Nelson, Elizar and Tatay’s birtday (July 14, 16 and 26 respectively) but really weird stuff..

Here they are, check them out after the jump:

(more…)

I’d like to greet my tatay happy father’s day.. .actually I texted him already after we got home from church. I may not always say and show to him that I care  and love him sooo much but deep in my heart I really do. For me he’s the greatest father. I’m so thankful for him for all the sacrifices hes been through just for us to live a decent life.

It’s not that easy to live without a father on my side. I was seven year old when he went to Saudi Arabia to work for a living. I remember the pain and the sorrow every time he’ll come back abroad to work.  And now that he’s about to resign atlast I’m happy, excited and looking forward to enjoy everyday with him.

Love you tay
