night of forever

tatay, nanay, kuya and tita elsa fetched me at the airport.

its passed midnight when we arrived home. kids were all sleeping...

that night, it was soooo dark... as we reached the door and turn on the lights, this is what i first saw...

touching, isnt it?

made by my 11 years old nephew, derick...

then, i rushed towards their room... just a couple of hugs and kisses, and they were all awake.

at first was silence, they were just staring at me, as if they were thinking if i am real.

derick *erica * exxon

after the realization... they all stood up, and we all went down to the kitchen...
cant wait for my favorites :)

now, you can imagine how BIG i am, after that 2 lllllllllooonnnggg and lovely weeks...

after the delicious meal that i missed for 18 months, we opened my lagguage and gave away the pasalubong (gifts)...

as i can recall when we were kids, its the best part, everytime my ninang and tita bunso arrives :)

their excitement were priceless. how i wish i could give more...

yet, i had bloopers with my presents... our bunso suddenly wanted a gameboy since his Kuya got PSP and Ate got Nintendo, it was my mistake not to give him the same....

it kills me everytime i see this photo... he was so disappointed :(

but i gave him a remote control car that is zero gravity something *&^$@#!!! well, its cool! believe me! not the usual RC Cars, this time, its climbing, and even on the ceiling, upside down!

after some explanations and promises that he'll have his gameboy when i come back... and after checking his zerO gravitiy s#$%^&*thing, here he is...

proud as ever... with his new toy :)

that night, it was a lllloooonnnnggg happppppyy:) :) unforgetttttaabbbble night...
one great moment that will forever be on my heart... the feeling of being home again.
the warm welcome of my family... the happiness that somehow, even for a short period of time, we were together again.
