Birthday Nov 16, 2008


I thank God for His faithfulness in my life for 29 years! Wow how time flies so fast. These are things that made my birthday special...

Because my birthday is on a Sunday my husband gave me a ministry break. Meaning, I won't be thinking about church or discipleship on that day. We still went to church and thank God for being good and great in my life. I am really blessed to have a husband like Carlo. He really knows how to make me feel special. Actually even if it is not my birthday he will have ways to make me feel special. He is really a lifetime birthday gift for me from God!







At church my discipleship group also prepared a video for me. I had fun watching it kahit na hindi na surprise pero okay lang kasi pinaghirapan nila yun. I am blessed to see how they are growing in the Lord. Seeing them seeking God first will be the best birthday gift that they can give me.











Last Thursday one of our faculty ladies at IGSL asked me if I can take pictures of their November party. Our faculty ladies usually meet once a month and always ask me to document their party. So I went there as a photographer but I was surprised that it was actually a birthday party for me. They gave me a Priscilla shower themed party. It's a shower party for a new wife. They showered me with lots of advices, gifts and laughs.

With all these things my birthday is already complete...but God gave me a super Bonus to conclude my birthday these year. If you know me, I love taking pictures, so for the past three years I was praying that God will provide to upgrade my Fujifinepix camera to an entry level DSLR camera. This year my husband challenged me to seriously pray and save money for it. I asked my uncle and grandmother from the US if they can donate ng konti kasi medyo kulang yun na save namin, so a day after my birthday when my grandmother arrived from the US she's carrying my new baby!

My husband said that this will be his birthday, anniversary, valentines, birthday and anniversary gift to me hehehe actually there's more...

I am still getting used to it kasi di pa kami gaanong magkakilala. Pero I promised my officematesm churchmates and relatives na wala nang magiging pangit sa amin sa friendster, facebook at multiply. Praise God!

Happy Birthday talaga to!
