my loving family

Today is my father’s birthday.

My father is not with us anymore but I know where ever he is right now, he’s just watching us and cared us a lot.

Of course I wish that papa is still with us but we cannot do anything to get him back from almighty God. Well all I could say, I miss you papa. I really wish you’re still with us and see us growing and reaching our goals. But on the other side, I know you’re just there looking us and happy for us.

Happy, happy birthday and I love so much.

Here are my siblings birthday message to papa.

Bro Dante (Kuwait) : happy birthday to our beloved papa Mauro Calan; who passed away few years ago…. we know that you’re up there watching us always… we miss you and we love you papa so much…

Sis Marlyn : Happy Birthday to my Dear Papa! We miss you a loootttt. Wish you’re still here with us but I know you’re happy with our Almighty God. We love you so much Papa!

Sis Gina : happy birthday pa.we love u and miss u so much

Here are some of my siblings pictures during their vacation in our province. They had lots of fun even if it was raining almost all the time they were there.

But thankfully, they’re all happy, had fun and met our relatives there.

My mother celebrates her 56 birthday last January 7. They had her celebration in Tagaytay and as I can see on their pictures, they were all having so much fun.

Mama as we call our mother, struggles a lot when my father died. My mama almost gave up but as she continue facing her life without my father, her life changes in so many ways.

As of now, mama is such a happy and loving mother “as always”. Plus what makes her really happy besides us (her children) are her grandchildren. She always makes sure that she shows her love towards us. Share her love and cares for us is absolutely unconditionally.

I love you always mama. Here are some of my mother’s pictures together with her grandchildren.

My brother Dante did something that made me cry.

I and my brother Dante (in Kuwait) weren’t able to come home last holiday season due for some reasons. My brother’s boss didn’t allowed him to take a leave from his work and for myself, money was the issue. We are about to move to our new apartment this year so spending money is a kind of selfish thing knowing that my husband is the only one who is working. And knowing too that December is peak seasons. Tickets is so expensive.

So my brother Dante made a cute compiling family pictures on his muzy photo box profile. Here are some of his compilations that made me cry when i first saw it when he posted on FB.

I really miss spending Christmas with my family.

my baptism (Vito Church)…

Way back year 1979, my mother got pregnant again for the 4th time. After 9 months of pregnancy, a cute tiny little girl born on early morning of November… 32 years later, that tiny little girl grown up into a woman/lady.

Thank you so much to my wonderful parents for giving my life. My life that I always be thankful with. I love you mama and papa… Thank you so much for bringing me into this world.

I wanna thanks to all my Face book friends for all their undying lovely greetings and for all their wishes… I don’t have bonded each one of them but they makes me feel that we are all one family…

To my loving family, thank you so much for your unconditional lo9ve. All your love, wishes and pray I’m hoping to come true. You know guys that I really want one thing that I know its impossible but in God’s hands everything is possible.

Happy birthday to myself…

my father’s last Christmas with us, 2004

I’m jealous!!!

I always have communication with my family in Philippines and my brothers in Kuwait and Saudi but I’m still missing them so much. Talking through internet is not the same as having conversation in person.

All of them are happy because they will be celebrating Christmas and New Year together. My brothers are coming home for Christmas and my other brother and his family will flying to Manila too. My mother will also be in Manila December 21.

Sadly its only me..as in ONLY me who couldn’t make this December. There are some reasons why I couldn’t make it but I’ll be hoping until last minute of December that I can be home and be with my family on holiday seasons.

If ever I can be home, this will be our Christmas again as together (as one family) after my father’s death. The last time we were all together was last December of 2004 when my father was still alive.

I really wish I can be with them… if not, that’s life. I don’t want to be self fish and just think of myself. I have my own family now that I need to be consider whatever decision I would make.

Last Wednesday was the 9th death anniversary of my father in-law. I can still feel the sadness of my husband every time we talk about his father. He even have tears in his eyes when he remembered the time he saw his father on the floor.

I’m pretty sure my father in-law could be a good father in-law to me but sad to say, I don’t have a chance to meet my parents in-laws.

Remember them always.

When we were in my province, I promised myself to visit my late father. My one week vacation there wouldn’t be meaningful without visiting papa’s tom.

I, my sister Gina, my aunties and my cousin Madeline was visited and lighted candles to my grandparents (both sides) and of course my father and his sister.

I’m still emotional every time I’m in the cemetery looking at my father’s name. It’s difficult to accept but I’m moving on. I’m on the process of accepting. Slowly but surely.

I miss you and I love you so much papa Mauro.

Good day

I, Gina and her little girl will fly to our province together. It would be Auinnah’s first time in our province so I’m expecting lots of visitors welcoming the little one.

I am excited knowing that I’m traveling with them because this means that I can spend more time with Aquinnah and of course my sister Gina.

My mother is already in the province. The reason that I want to go home to my province is of course to spend time with my mother, visit my father’s toms and of course meeting my brother Elezer’s second son Zhackary.

I’m really excited and I almost can’t sleep thinking about our vacation.

I’m sure my mother missing Aquinnah so much
