Let’s Make Dreams Happen!

This picture shows how happy and fulfilled my parents are. They are both retired from work and enjoy managing their own sari-sari store. My mom, Lita, was born on June 24, 1943 in Bulacan, Bulacan and my dad, Carding, was born on January 6, 1933 in Malolos, Bulacan. My mom is fond of listening to old songs and watching pretty and handsome faces on screen while my dad loves drinking coffee and watching boxing whether amateur or professional. But they have something in common; they both love gardening.

My brother, Roni, was born on November 12, 1974 and my sister, Christine, was born on March 27, 1977 both at the Sacred Heart Hospital in Malolos, Bulacan. Christine graduated cum laude with a degree in BA Public Administration in UP Diliman and presently works at the Development Bank of the Philippines. Roni finished Bachelor of Laws at San Sebastian College and now works at Bureau of Investments as Chief-OIC of the HRD.

Chris is my brother-in-law and also works at the Development Bank of the Philippines. He’s warm, attentive, and a good listener. And for my sister and my nephew, Cyrus, he’s a good provider and a loving father.

Che is my sister-in-law and a devoted wife and mother. She has a good singing voice and really a music lover. She’s terribly patient with her two makulits, Roch and Phoebe.

This is my ever supportive mother-in-law, Nanay Lucing. We’re all happy that at 80, she’s still vibrant and strong. Whenever we need help, she’s always there to lend a hand unselfishly.

This was taken during Oghie’s birthday last June 21, 2008 at Rocka Village. In the picture, clockwise from left: Ate Ging, Nanay Lucing, Nice, Kuya Dong, Jaca, Ruby Marie, Oghie, Miggy, and Bea.
