My dream home

This is fuller's cottage in maldon,victoria.Such a pretty little town.Absolutely beautiful country town.I was impressed by the fact that the buildings that were built since 19th century are still standing and are actually being used.Maldon is located approximately 140km,or one and a half hours from melbourne.
In this cottage is where we have stayed overnight for a weekend get away,willy's birthday treat.We took a steam train ride.willy and niall of course had fun on the train ride.The day we stayed over,we spent the day at the fireplace...we had marshmallow and watch the view from the window as the crackling of the firewood gets to drown away the quiet serene atmosphere.Hayyy...this is what happiness are made of.

missing my sisters

Just yesterday,i had met up with our family friend (actually its shiela's bestfriend way back in high school)she had just arrived friday and upon seeing her i felt this nudge in my heart...how i wish sheila and caroline can come here as well.Kristine handed me the parcel that shiela took effort of buying for her beloved niece,maeve and nephew niall.But what had almost brought me to tears were the photos and the card sheila had sent.hayyy.sigh,sigh.hidlaw gd ko sa ila.
Just to show how one card had almost made me cry like a river here's what it said:

For my Sister

The world that we grew up in now seems a little small,
but it was big in laughter,love,and sharing.
We didn't have a lot of things that you'd call luxuries,but we were rich
in character and caring.
Looking back,i'm grateful for the way we were raised and how our close-knit
family saw us through.
It gave us the foundation that we built on through the years,
and i'm lucky to have shared it all with you.

Thank you gid and we love you Manang!
