The three constant men in my life are altogether in California this weekend. My family is scattered in America and my mom and I are here. Our oldest Mark is in Riverside, Melvin is like 8 hour-drive away from him and Miller is in Texas. This was a scheduled trip for them, Koyang Mark was already babbling about it few weeks ago. Their photo posted on Facebook by Ate Arlyn generated a lot of likes and positive comments from friends.
To FaceTime with them plus Jak, Kadie and Mykela brings quiet happiness and peace in my heart. Mamang was speechless upon seeing them, She couldn't grasp the realization that her three sons are sharing lunch of crabs and lobsters in one place- Koyang Mark's home. I told Jak to ask $20 from Beloy,he giddily shared that his uncle already gave him hundred bucks.He will spend it in Legoland.:)
During Kadie's stay here last summer, I noticed that she gets to have a louder and frantic voice when she gets overly excited and jolly, today Jak commented,"Tita Mitzi, Kadie sometimes shouts." And I told him it's because her younger cousin is simply happy to have him around.Jak: "I see.":) Mykela was lying on bed beside her Tito Boo while drinking her bedtime milk.
I choose to rest my heart and mind from teleserye mode , heavy scenes of tears and sobs thankfully were packed up. I choose to be happy for this rare feat of circumstance that my brothers get to set time to replenish the long physical distance amongst them. Mamang is awesomized! A part of me wished of course that the two of us are there with them. In God's clock, I know that my dream of a complete fam photo will materialize.
My family is the best balm that effortlessly soothes my soul. Beyond all that may be inadequate and missing in my life, I am grateful for who I have and what I still possess, that really, I can say-I couldn't ask for more!
Care.Share.Love.
