The Birds

Before the lockdown, we are living in a past paced moving world but with this Covid 19, it suddenly comes to a halt. We appreciate more our family members and the things/nature around us. We come across some things that should be done inside the house and realized decluttering is very important. While cleaning our terrace, my attention was glued on the family of birds while resting in our roof. They just tend to this little one who is comfortably nesting between parentbirds. Its nice to look at them and only separated when its time for the adult birds to look for foods for their baby bird.

Kim's Birthday

Though its a late post, i just wanted to share to you that my grandson Kim in Canada turned a year older and he is now of legal age. Its a new journey for him and my birthday wish for him is to be more loving, caring, responsible, respectful and God fearing son to everyone. He now have his driving license and driving his own car. May he continue to be a good grandson and may the Lord always protects him everyday. Happy birthday again Kim and enjoy your legal stature by finishing a degree and make your mom proud of you. By the way, because of Covid 19, they just have a simple celebrations at home.

Happy Easter to All !!!

Its been quite peaceful and quiet in the whole community because of the lockdown on all areas. Honestly, i like the serenity, good nature and the blue skies but of course in my heart, i wish that our Lord will stop this corona virus from doing further harm to everyone. I hope and pray that our risen Lord will continue to protect all his people expecially my family. Lenten season is a time for reflection, forgiveness and after these trials, a new world awaits us.

Broken Arm Operation

Finally after waiting for severl weeks, my daughter Aizza had her broken bones operated at a hospital in San Pedro. Thank God it was successful though she had a faster pulse rate and vomiting which is normal after the operation. She is now halfway to recovery and more rehabilitation therapy soon. Motorcycle accident do happen and we should really be armed with cautiousness and prayers before leaving the house.

Family Games

The enhanced community quarantine has been extended till end of this month which means we will still stay at home for the protection and safety of everyone. Anyway, my kids and grandkids just indulge themselves with games considering they are in different locations to while away the time during the lockdown period.

My Family in Time of Crisis

Its really a very difficult and trying times not only to my family but for everyone worldwide. With this corona virus spreading very fast, we didn't all know who is our enemy. We are in a lockdown and stay at home mode to be safe. Me and Dirk are vurnerable to the disease because of our pre existing conditions. I only go out to buy important things and somehow we are coping up. My kids and grandkids are also just staying at home which is the best for everyone. Even my daughters abroad are doing the same, its a worldwide problem and we should just oblige with the guidelines. We also help others in our own little way while my family members is doing something to make them busy. We pray and hope that one day , we can return to our normal lives again. Thanks to my daughters Rose Belle and Astrid for their unending concern and financial help, teamwork is the key.

Aizza's Broken Arm

Coronavirus disease COVID19 is a virus identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China. It now affects thousands of people around the world including the Philippines. It has a big impact on everyone, on the economy and even with my family. I just hope and pray that this virus will be contained amidst the lockdown made in the whole of Luzon. My children at the moment has no more work because of this pandemic and my daughter's arm operation was also affected. She is supposed to undergo the knife because of motorcycle accident but her attending doctor was also quarantined. The orthopedic operation of the hospital was also temporarily suspended because of the COVID19. I know these too shall pass and my daughter can bear the pain while awaiting for the hospital operation to resume.
