Happy 4th Wedding Anniversary

Today marks the 4th wedding anniversary of my parents, so allow me to share with you a letter from my dad:

Ever dearest Mommy,

Do you remember the first (?) greeting card I gave you when I was still courting you? Here's what it said:

"Your Heart is like a door, locked from top to bottom...hope I've got the right keys to open it."

Finally, after two years of searching and trying for the right keys, you opened the door of your heart to me and the rest is history. I am always comfortable inside your heart and I hope you wont kick my b*** out from your heart (LOL).

Fourteen years (14) (including 2 years of courting and 8 years of being steady) of loving you is not enough, I need eternity for me to show you how much I love you, how much I am blessed and how much joy my heart feels.

Four (4) years of marriage is not long enough to prove that we are strong to face challenges and difficulties but for sure we could face it with much confident knowing that we are together every step of our journey.

For some, marriage is not a word, it's a life sentence, but for me marriage is a lifetime happiness knowing that you are the one person I am with. I can't imagine myself a Chie-less world.

Others said that love is one long sweet dream and marriage is the alarm clock, but for me marriage is the fulfillment of that "sweet dreams", I dreamt of you for a long time and God made that dream a reality.

Today, we celebrate our 4th wedding anniversary, it may be simple as it is but for me this day is not just an ordinary day for us because we celebrate our marriage each day and each moment. We are blessed with much joy, we are blessed with a beautiful and charming daughter and we are blessed by our love for each other.

You opened the door of your heart for me 14 years ago and I don't have any plan of getting out from it, my only plan is to stay in your heart forever.

I love you always.

Happy 4th Wedding Anniversary to us.

Loving you,

A Letter From My Dad

Here's a letter from my dad, he's in senti mode right now, dad, are you okay? (dad's note: Aside from migraine, I'm fine).

To My Adorable Daughter:

I am sitting right in front of my computer looking at your photos and I can't help but mesmerize by your charm and sweetness. Your smile is so addictive, it made my day complete. Your eyes speak a lot of words, like "mom, I love you" or "dad, you're so loving" and so on.

I am soooo blessed and honored to have you as my daughter, it's simply amazing. Thinking about you each and every second of my day. I am excited to go home knowing that you are there waiting for me and mom, ready to throw your arms around us.

Our summer getaway last week is unforgettable, you made me prouder. Our friends adore you so much, your sweetness melt their heart away and you made our long trip a lot easier because you entertained us all with your giggles and laughter. I hope you enjoyed riding on your pool cruiser, next time we will swim together (mom's note: learn to swim first).

Next month is a new adventure for you, it would be your first Festival.

I love you Gabby, I know you will grow a fine young lady, loving God and loving us.

To My Loving Wife:

It's been more than a year since our very last trip before we rest for a while. Our summer outing in Subic is unforgettable because it's our first trip with Gabby.

I just loved watching both of you while enjoying each other's company. I just adore both of you. You mesmerize me with your charm.

You are doing a great job taking care of our daughter. Purely, breastfeeding her is really a big task for you. Look at our Gabby, she's healthy, adorable and charming. Both of you are my strength and my "happy thoughts". I can't wait spending another weekend getaway with both of you (our next trip: Pahiyas in Lucban, Quezon)

I love you always.

Have a nice day,

A Letter for My Mom on the Eve of My Birth

Hi Mommy,

What's up?, I'm sure you're too excited and at the same time nervous of what will happen tomorrow. I know, it's kind of a mixed emotions for both of you, but don't you worry I'll be fine. At last!, after almost 39 weeks of taking care of me while I'm inside your womb, we will finally meet for the first time.

Thank you mommy, in taking good care of me and for making sure that I am safe each day of my development. I know that you will continue to love me, care for me and protect me as I grow to become a fine, kind, healthy and loving young lady.

The nine months of waiting is over and a new chapter of our life together will begin in just a few hours. It's not easy in carrying me for this long and gaining a whooping 40 lbs but I know that you were happy about this wonderful experience. It's difficult but fulfilling; am I right?.

I can't wait to feel your embrace, to feel your touch and to feel your love. I am blessed to have you and daddy as my parents. I look forward of spending quality time with you and dad who is equally excited about my birth.

Rest for now mommy, for tomorrow will be a busy day for us. I love you

See you tomorrow!!!

Prayer: Dear God, thank you for protecting me each day while I'm inside my mom's womb. Thank you for making my mom's pregnancy an enjoyable experience. I know that you will continue to protect our family as we begin this new wonderful chapter of our life. Protect both of us as my birth has come.

I light a candle for "Gab" whom I did not have the chance to meet but I know she's happy that finally, I am in their life. Thank you God, You are indeed an awesome God.

A Letter From My Daddy

Hi everyone,

I'm sure most of you already knew the day of my birth, it's on October 23, 2009. I am so excited for this day. In the meantime, I am sharing with you a letter for me from my Daddy. It's less than 7 days before D-Day.

Friends, see you in 7 days!!!

Hi Gabby,

Time really flies, I can't believe that I will finally see and hug you. I few months back, I was monitoring and writing about your development and what you are doing inside your mom's womb. The moment your mommy showed me the two (2) stripes, I begun writing about it. I am so amazed the first time I saw your movement in the monitor through ultrasound. "Wow!, that's my daughter", I said. I'm sure when you watch it, you will also be amazed with your little movements inside your mom's womb.

Your mom really did a great job in protecting you. One time, your mom slipped and she fell with her knees and elbows just to protect you. Aside from the little bruises, you and your mom are fine. I thank God that He protect both of you specially when I am not with your mom.

What joy you've given me everytime you do your kicks and somersaults while mom is laughing at me because I was making faces as if we were playing . The way I feel now is the same way when your mom and I got married three years ago. It's like a glimpse of heaven.

Everyone is so excited with your coming, your grandpa and grandmas, your cousins, your uncles and aunties together with our friends; they are all awaiting for the D-day. I can't wait to see you grow, to make your first step and to hear you say "Daddy & Mommy".

You had a sibling, her name is Gab (though we never knew her gender). She already joined our dear Lord when she was still four months inside your mom's womb. She's our little angel watching over us. It would have been better if she's here with us sharing our joy. Anyway, I know she's happy for us.

Nine months had past but my excitement never ceases. In fact, I am getting more and more excited as your birth is getting nearer. A week is just 168 hours or 10,800 minutes, but it seems so endless...it seems so long.

When you grow up you can read here in this blog site (your blog site) every single details of your development and every single moment of our life together. It may not be perfect but we'll make it sure that it will be filled with joy and laughter.

We will cherish and watch you grow. We will watch you through life as our heart fills with pride and help you with decisions, the best that we can. I know that someday you'll be a fine young women, loving God and loving others.

We love you Gabby. See you soon!!!

Love,

Daddy
