11 years have gone by but the pain remains. How I wish that you are still with us. 11 years today when you suddenly left us but I know that things happened for a reason. I hope that wherever you are, that you are free from pain and that you are looking over us especially Mama. I hope that an angel will relay my message to you. I lo]ve you and I miss you very much Pa!

Choke Hold
Seeing the news about the guy who died because of the choke hold that the police have applied when he resisted arrest scares me. I have a lot of respect for the police because they put their lives on the line to protect the people they serve. Sometimes, accident like this happen. I think that if the guy have listened and did not resist the arrest, he could have still alive. The police on the other hand, should have listened when the guy was saying that he couldn't breath.
On the lighter note, let me share these random photos that I took when we were at Oxcean City a couple of weeks ago.
It's amazing to see people are swimming already as early as 7 o'clock down there.

House Repair Money
During the typhoon Glenda, Mama's house got tore up. She lives by the ocean so it is very windy there especially during typhoon months.
I tried to encourage my Mom to live with my sister in the city but she doesn't want to. She is used to living at our old place and she doesn't want to leave the memories that she and my father have built for years.
While eating breakfast, I told my kids that we need to send my Mom some money because her house got tore up during the recent typhoon that hit Philippines. My son immediately said, "I Will donate $10 off my savings!" J.Rylie C. said that we should have a garage sale this weekend and whatever we collect, we will send to "Lola". My heart melts with my children's compassion.
Come to think of it, a garage sale is a great idea. We have so many baby stuff from our storage that we don't need anymore. So if the weather is good this weekend, we will have a garage sale. I have never done this before but will give it a shot. With enrollment fast approaching and bills piling up, money is a little tight. Budget crunch!!!

Father's Day 2014
On Father's Day this year, we started our day with a hearty meal that I prepared for my husband. We planned on spending the day to the Zoo so we got up early and got ready.
A simple family photo before we took off. My son is always making faces, it frustrates me sometimes because we can't get a good family family picture most of the times. Anyway, before we head out to the zoo, we visited my father-in-law first. We got him a new flag and a new razor for gifts.
He was very happy to see both because he needed a new flag as his old one is all shredded up. The last time we put a new flag on his flag pole was years ago, when my brother's in law was still alive.
I love it when I see these two so loving with each other because nowadays, they love to pester each other lol.
My FIL is a very patriotic man so even if his eye sight is slowly deteriorating, he is very proud to fly a flag in his front yard.
