THANKSGIVING DAY 2010

THANKSGIVING QUOTE.." It is delightfully easy to thank GOD for the grace we ourselves have received, but it requires great grace to thank GOD always for the grace given to others....JAMES SMITH

Thank you LORD AND MAMA MARY for the blessings , for the strong faith you always bestow on us in times of weakness , for good health, for safety, for always embracing us and keeping us from harm, for the continuous wisdom you impart to us which is very much needed in our everyday existence,for the opporunities that you let us experienced which contributed a lot to our beings, for the family back home in PI,for all the expected and unexpected graces, THANK YOU.

A TEXT,A CALL, AN EMAIL,JUST A HI,HELLO MATTERS MOST

This is an entry that has something to do on a simple text,a simple hello, a simple hi, a simple email, a simple how are you, a simple message , from our loved ones, matters .

Yes, i am quite sentimental at this moment.(smile).

If by chance someone will read this blog, if you have a loved one working far away from home, make it a point to say how are you to them, even if they will not reply right away,that simple how are you matters a lot to them. If you could comment hi ,hello, ingat, to your friends in their fb and friendster account, why can't you write the same to your family member?before it's too late.That simple hi hello may be a great help to alleviate your loved one's feelings on that moment.

So proud of our son!

Earlier this month, we received a letter from the school congratulating us that our son was unanimously chosen by the teachers to be honored by the Rotary Club International, Riverside Chapter as exemplary student. Honestly I cried when I read the letter. Why? because for us, as parents, it's an achievement . Whether other people will not make a big deal of this but IT IS A BIG DEAL FOR US. Because behind all of our son's achivements, are stories of sacrifice and experiences untold. We are proud of you son. Beyond words. beyond explanations, we love you so much!

The awarding and honoring was held at ROTARIAN LUNCHEON SAN DIEGO ROOM, MISSION INN HOTEL, RIVERSIDE,CA...attended by rotarians, guests,principal...There were only 2 awardees that were honored, one from Poly High School and one from Bryant Elementary.It was done after having lunch.He received a certificate, a check, and gift cards.Thank You Bryant Elementary and Rotary International Riverside Chapter for acknowledging our son's hard work. Thank you God and Mama Mary for the blessings.
