26 February 2009

i have been gone for so long...

i came back last february 16, but only now have i gotten the chance to write something here. i have been really busy getting back into my routine. i have to much stories to share about my vacation. it will be a little difficult to tell you the daily story about my vacation so i will make it a 'weekly' summary. so now let me just post the last 2 days i was in paris before my flight...

17 january 2009
i finally finished packing. had all the 'pasalubong' fit in my luggage. technically i finished january 18 because it was already 2:00 in the morning. need to wake up at 6:00 am and be at the airport by 7:30. i'm tired...already.

18 january 2009
we were early at the airport. we had breakfast there. we checked in our luggages but waited the last minute to go inside. we wanted to spend more time with papa. and when the time we had to go in...papa said goodbye to sofia. naiyak naman ako when i saw my husband close to tears. alam mo mami-miss nya kami sobra lalo na si sofia. when i left the house, rafael and isabelle were still sleeping. buti na lang natutulog pa sila dahil nahihirapan akong iwan sila. tapos dito sa airport eh hindi ko rin napigil at napaiyak din ako.

for those who are wondering how my husband and 2 kids managed in paris while i was gone... well, my sis-in-law from canada volunteered to come over. she arrived janruary 15 and left last february 19. it was really nice of her to come and take care of my family while i was gone. my whole family is very grateful... 'thank you very much, ate mel!!'
