Who Said Beggars Can't Be Choosers?

I was about to go out this morning when I heard the door bell ringing. When I asked who was on the gate, a man's voice replied "sulat!", so I went out to grab the mail but when I opened the gate, a group of beggar was outside and one of them tried to hand me an empty envelope, obviously he wants me to put some money inside. I have to admit I got really annoyed with their style of asking for some help. I seldom give money when some indigents are asking for help so I went inside, looked in my fridge and took some breads and other food which they can readily eat. When I handed the food to them, the man said in a demanding tone, "walang pera?" I got so annoyed but I don't want to ruin my day so I went back inside and pretended that I didn't hear anything. I really wanted to get back to him, to tell him that he should at least be thankful for what I gave them but I realized my deed of wanting to help in my own way would make no sense If I will loose my patience.

To My Dearest Hubby




I may not tell you everyday how much I love you. I may not be the sweetest wife. I may not be as patient as I should be especially when you do your "own style" (teasing her till she cries) of bonding with the princess. But you know I'm trying my best to be at my best for you and still tries to better each day. Whatever happens, know that you and our li'l princess are the most wonderful things that ever happened to me. Only God could love you more than I do.

Ours is never close to being a perfect relationship. No relationship is perfect anyway. Sometimes, no matter how we want to settle things to avoid going to bed angry at one another, we still fail to do so. Being married to one another is never an easy thing, maybe because we are both stubborn people. Then add the way we raise our princess and we don't even get to compromise anymore. But none of those would make me love you less. None of those would want me to bring back the time and find any other husband because I believe that we have an amazing relationship and there's no one else I'd rather have by my side than you. I also believe that God paved a way for us to end up together. I think it's clear to you now what my purpose in your life is.

Thank you for showing a huge changes to make things right in this family. Thank you for working so hard to provide us good life, a comfortable life. Thank you for the "regular dates". Thank you for loving my family. Thank you for always thinking ways on how to surprise me. Thank you for trying to be a listener when I talk. Thank you for showing me how much you love me. For initiating most of the times on being sweet. For kissing me when you walk in the door from work. Thank you for trying to be a better dad for our princess each day. I want you to know that I see them, each small things that you do for me, I appreciate them and I love you more each day for them.

As we take the journey to our fourth year, I'm wishing that we will always keep the flame burning and just be happy and be there for one another all the time. Let's continue keeping the Lord the center of our family. Happy Anniversary Dad!

Birthday Surprise No More

I once told hubby that I think nothing can top the surprise he gave me last year. He managed to gather my friends from High School to College and surprised me with my favorite bands. Yesterday we were at Greenbelt when he suddenly disappeared without letting me know where he went. I tried calling his phone but I can't reach him until I lost my patience trying to look for him. When he came back, he doesn't have to ask if I'm mad, it was clearly obvious with the way I look at him. He was then forced to tell the supposed-to-be birthday surprise. Here it is;

Yes, we will celebrate my birthday watching favorite Josh Groban's concert. Yipeeee!!!
Needless to say, my anger suddenly disappeared when I saw the tickets.

He said he had to rush in buying the tickets coz the ticket selling was open to public just yesterday and no VIP tickets were left, and the one that he got was the best seats left.

Growing Princess = New Sets of Wardrobe

As the princess grow taller and chubbier each day, I had to buy new sets of clothes. I just want to share it here, I got these sets of sleepwear, carters export overruns at P160 per set. Isn't that a steal?

To The Men Who's Been Part of My Life...

I had two boyfriends before I met hubby. One was my college sweetheart. We stayed together for four years and it was doing well when we thought of having a break just to try being apart from each other. When we thought we made the wrong decision, a situation wouldn't permit us to be back in each others arms. He has to face his obligation while I was hurt really really bad with his situation. He would constantly give me a ring, crying and regretting what he did but I knew no matter how we try it, I just couldn't take him back. I don't want to be the cause of another child being left behind by her father.

When we had a very serious talk, I told him, "I guess this only means one thing, we're not meant to be"...

TO YOU MY FIRST

Thank you for the wonderful years we've spent together. Thank you for the great memories. Thank you for the untiring love, for the undying love you've shown me. Ours was something I will never regret. I know we once wished to end up together, I know we had such a big dream of building our family but our fate wouldn't allow us.

I hope you're happy now coz I have finally found my happiness with the man that I marry.


Strange but I broke up with my second boyfriend after four years as well. Maybe because during his time I still felt something for my first ex, my feelings for him didn't last long but the relationship did. I was too scared to admit that I was just using him as my security to not have this feeling of being left behind after I convinced my first ex to do what's right - to face his responsibility. I know what I did was bad. Staying with someone I don't love and making him believe that I do, that was something I am never proud of.


TO YOU MY SECOND...

I'm Sorry... If I didn't end it sooner even if I knew it would come to this. I knew that when the time comes when I had to go it would mean like shattering your dreams.
Sorry if I made it go on for so long. If I made it last longer even if I knew we were never a match. Even if I knew I was dragging myself to a much harder situation, I stayed & tried to love you. I'm sorry I made the wrong decision when I decided to stick with you even if I felt like you're trying too hard to make me love you. I was too weak to admit that I'm going to hurt you. I didn't have enough courage to tell you I was in pain, that I wanted to leave. I held it all in, praying things would change, that I will learn to love you again. I kept it inside, hoping things would turn out fine.

I'm sorry I lied. I led myself to believe everything will be okay. Even though all the signs pointed to no, I still kept telling myself yes.

I'm sorry for not giving you back the love that you deserve. I wish I could turn back the time so I wouldn't have to lie and make you believe I still love you. I wish you can read this to let you know how sorry I was for hurting you.

I heard you've found a new love, I wish she truly loves you the way you should be loved.
