Mother's Day

Fried chicken, special pancit and many other delicious awesome food and delicacies that my parents are preparing when I called them to greet my Mother "Happy Mother's Day" which she greeted me the same way. Then a birthday greetings to my Father who is celebrating his 81st (?) birthday. Uhm not sure but he is that old but younger looking. I already had my gray hair at age 14 and he hasn't got any. Would you believe that? I think had that gray matter from my Mother's gene. Sort of hereditary. Thank God my face not wrinkled yet. Hehe.

So everybody there at my parents home: brothers and their respective families except the two brothers working abroad (overseas workers). They seemed happy and lively which is a good sign. They should be. Seldom they have a get together or family reunion. Now thinking about a great family reunion or clan reunion whatever which will happen probably in the future. Right now and this year is short of a plan. Planning to go home is a plan out of budget unless of course if I win the lottery.

My nieces are all grown up, teenagers 5 of them are already in College. One nephew about to graduate from College. Other nieces in High School, the rest in grade schools and one nephew who seemed not to like going to school but there is time for him to think for start of School Year in Philippines  is in June anyway. There's more time to think and ponder, making the most of your time spring to summer. It's already summer here, in my opinion while some islanders oggle the date in their calendar.

We have such a freak weather every now and then in this country that set us to believe that it's only springtime. The rows of tulips and daffodils have withered and fallen on the ground, cherry blossom flowers that once filled the branches of its tree were already driven by the wind to the next route.  How time flies and birthdays too.... too many birthdays to remember in May. Then not to be forgotten the ad "what's in your wallet?" Oh damned! Could I, should I))) fill it with cards?

Just kidding. I know I am being ridiculous as in cumulus cloud.

I cannot scan my latest photograph so allow me to just post my old photographs with my beautiful princess and handsome prince(s). As we celebrate  MOTHER's DAY.
