2nd child

Our 2nd child was born November 7th 1976 at about 5am. a healthy baby weighing 7.4 pounds, a baby girl also.

That was the first time I was separated from my first baby that is one year and 11 months already. We brought the 2nd baby home and to my surprise the elder sister was so loving with her younger sister, not like what others says that the elder one will be jealous with her baby sister. 

4rth baby

The fourth and the youngest child is also a boy born on April the 30th 1981. It takes a little while for the baby to come out because he has many hair, as if wearing a wig, because it already curls. a little bit funny seeing the hair. He is a bit brown a Filipino color.

Now i have four children, but I didn't find it hard to take care of them, I enjoyed being with then, that gives me reason sometimes, not to be so serious with my work. I stop working every time I delivered a child, because i cannot trust to leave the little baby under the care of helpers.

That was 32 years ago, since i have a small child, my youngest is already thirty two (32) years old, still a bachelor and living with us, working in one of the government office in our place. The three are all married and having a house of their own.

Our four children have finished their studies and working.

At week ends, my husband and I use to go to their house bonding with the grandchildren, if not they are the one going to our house.

We strove hard to send our four children in school and we are so happy that, they finished their studies and are successful in their career.

That is why I have said in one of my blogs, that it is so important or a must for parents to work hard to send their children to school, if not so much at least enought to help them have their own life in the future, for we parents will not live long, to always guide and give them all the needs in life.

3rd Child

Our 3rd offspring is finally a boy, born on December 23,1978. My husband was so happy because he is the one to give a name,(we have an agreement that, whens it's a girl, it is my duty to look for a name and of course with his approval  so now it is a boy and it's his turn to name it.) It takes only 30 minutes for me to deliver the baby, because he has few hair, that is the reason why the baby got out easily.

My two daughter was also curious of the baby and got around him, when we arrive home. Still jealousy was not felt by me as what others expect, they love him and careful in getting near the baby.

Grade 111

i don't have any remarkable memory during my 3rd grade, just a simple and shy pupil listening to our teacher.

First Child

A month later, after our church wedding, i found out that, i was already one month pregnant  I could not believe it, because what i felt was dizziness, vomiting and not so comfortable. The doctor confirmed that i was really pregnant. I have this uncomfortable situation for almost three months.

 During those time, I want to eat noodles(pansit) and banana (cardava). I hate my husband for eating other bananas with me, but i did not tell him what i thought at that time. I can't believe it.

There came a time when  I am already at my 5 months and went to the market and buy basic needs for our little store. I felt dizzy inside the store surrounding the market, and my husband was so quick to catch me before i fall.

On December 12th 1974, I gave birth to a baby girl, we named it Maricel.

Married Life - 2

When i returned  from Hongkong, i was married for the second time to my husband in church.(this is due to the reason that my parents were catholic and they would not allow me to just be married civilly). April 20,1974 was our church wedding.

Since we have no money, we invited just our closest relative and friends.

My husband and I has no work when we were married. With my little savings, we started a small store just outside their residence. It is so small that the income cannot support us, so we look for a job and with God's help my husband found one, even thought it doesn't compensate well, but at least it could fed the two of us.

marriage life

when i left the Philippines to work at my cousins office in Jakarta Indonesia, i was civilly married  to my husband without the knowledge of my parents afraid that they will not give me their permission because i am still so young for that stage of my life.

i was twenty four (24) then.
