Not a Handy Man

He's superb in computers.
He's updated in Information Technology stuff.
He's a gadget buff.
He's playful daddy.
He's superb.
He's almost perfect for us.

---but he's not a Handy Man.

Yeah, He isn't. Carpentry such stuff is not for him. I am once laughed him about it when we were still two living in an apartment. Most of the time if I want to fix such stuff, I have to make it on my own. I cannot depend on him doing it or he will say pay someone to fix it for you. During those times I only thought that he was just being generous and playing lazy don't want to make his hands dirty. But today, as we practice a practical living, I found out the real reason. Hammer, nails and other carpentry tools isn't his friends. He can work with screws and screw driver IF it is for computers and computer casing and printers but not on woods, broken chairs or tables etc. The good thing about it is that, I myself love doing such carpentry works because of my endless DIY ideas. So we need not to argue who will hold and keep the hammer. Heehee.

My Rainbow

Our marriage journey is not always heaven but one thing that is always present is a rainbow within. Though how hard the road were going thru and dark it maybe, there's always a little twinkling colorful light showing. We were not staying together because we should nor got no choice nor for the kids. We were staying together because that's what we both wanted. We both choose. And we both know that what we chose is always the best among all options.

I am always be thankful the day that I flirted with a guy that don't like me but got no choice but to take care of me that night just because of a friend's request.  I never imagined that it will be the start of my never ending rainbow. Though I can't see the pot of gold at the end, I am already thankful that my rainbow has no end.

3 Girls in a Row

Three girls in a row. That's the prediction to us of a family friend healer. Most of her prediction to our family happened and proven from 13 years ago till today. And because of that I do believe in her.  

That prediction having three girls in a row made hubby more excited. And also because of that thought as early as today he decided not to hand down the baby rocker, stroller and other stuff of our two month old baby to her sister that having a girl in March. Silly hubby but I disagree. Those stuff should be use since I am (alone) wanted to have the next baby three years from now. As he explained that next year I will be again in the delivery room and the next year and next to that year and to the next and last year I am going to give birth to our children. Imagine my hubby wants me to die (kidding). If we will be having three girls in a row for real so we will end up having five kids. I know the economy is not so friendly as for today and we need to be practical and plan our children's future. Anyway this is just a plan that I considered a very blurred one. Most of our plans were concrete and just waiting for the right time to be done but for this one a blurry side which also depends on what we were experiencing as of the present time.So let's wait and see what's waiting for the future :)

Tears of Joy.. For Real?!!

I am not an emotional type. Or rather I am but never shown my emotion to others or even to the closest person. I am tough. Hubby rarely sees me cry. As much as I control my emotion not to cry. I sometimes think I am a real guy. That crying is a sign of weakness for me to describe. That's why I experience tears of joy/overwhelming once. Last valentines day was my first experienced of it. I was amazed that it can happen to me to cry a river because of happiness. After that cheesy valentine, I never experienced it again. Even after I gave birth. Or should I say I am just tired of the process am gone through and got no chance to emote. I am happy, extremely happy for her arrival. But wait there's more... Here's the main character of my post.. The father. Hubby. As the nurse in the nursery showed them our angel, unconsciously a tear fell. He don't want it to be obvious cause he's with my mom and tried to wiped it away but it was then seen by mom. And as a secretive and private person I thought he will not tell it to anyone. Surprisingly as I borrowed his phone after 48 hours, when I try to clear his sent items, accidentally I read his messages to his boss and our godparent priest sharing his feeling. 

hindi ko po napigilang maiyak faths nung nakita ko yung baby ko. ganun pala yun. I'm so very happy

Funny. I found it funny because I am not used to it that he will react that way and even told it to somebody but touching. I can feel how much he loves our princess. Every night though how dead tired he is, he still have time and energy to take care of his little girl. Lucky my princess right.
