this is how we overcome!

for many months now, i've been so consumed by fear. fear of how my baby will turn out to be, fear of giving birth, fear on how we are going to make all ends meet with the baby's arrival, etc. with those fears that i mentioned, i think God finally woke me up and put a stop to all these fears. the gospel reading for the past days are about trusting Him, if that was not enough, He showed up in my dream last Friday night & told me to read the bible. still He gave me a pleasant surprise, kokoy & i unexpectedly saw koots & ichel & their baby, migo, in Christ the King church attending anticipated mass. they told us that they were supposed to drop by our house to lend me a book, which is Chicken Soup for the Expectant Mother's Soul. i got it from them and started reading it yesterday. boy, was it really reassuring! although there is still fear in me, the book somehow opened up my mind & heart and slowly that fear is being transformed into excitement:) i know most, if not all, expectant mothers have fears not only for their baby but also on how to cope up with pregnancy. difficult i tell you... but that is our calling. now i know the true meaning of sacrifice and being solely responsible for another person. as i'm writing this now, i can feel my baby's comforting kicks & turns:)

punta fuego 2007

the whole admin-acctg group went for a much needed rest last weekend. we went to punta fuego in batangas! my hubby joined me and i was really glad that he enjoyed the trip too. we stayed at a 3-storey house which has a good view of the beach. we enjoyed lazying in the sand on a hot sunny afternoon. too bad, ican't run around like the others so i contented myself with watching everyone and enjoying the site. i am too lazy to make a long entry and to download pictures again. so just click this site http://jhettsky.multiply.com/photos/album/21 to view the pictures. gotta go!

long vacation

hi everyone:) as every person in pinas know, starting yesterday was a long vacation for us. i could not plan a long trip whatsoever because of my condition. yesterday, instead of going to our visita iglesia in rizal we want to tagaytay with kokoy's family. we did our stations of the cross in chapel on the hill in don bosco batulao. we went home around 6pm & just watched dvds after. for the rest of the days, we don't know yet what we're going to do, hehe. basta i still want to commemorate the holy week as much as possible.
baby update
at 19 weeks, i can now feel my baby moving inside of me:) last night, i was not able to sleep early as the baby seem really restless, moving everywhere:)
