Finishing Touches

-
In 2000, after 7.5 years in MIL's (mother-in-law) house, we moved out to transfer to our own condo. Then in 2007, after 7.5 years, we sold the 2-br condo for a small profit and moved to a newly-constructed 2-br townhouse. The space is just slightly bigger than the condo, but it is nearer the kids' school and our place of work. Plus, we now have a small plot of garden to tend and a separate space for the househelps. Yey! Lol.

Now, 3.5 years later, I'm choosing from board swatches for the kitchen cabinetry and scouring the internet for ideas for the kids' bedroom furniture for our new project. This time, it is a modest-sized house that is being constructed and ready for the finishing touches. Hopefully, it will be completed in the next few weeks and ready for the "big reveal."

God is good!

School and a Mixed Bag of Emotions

"You can’t imagine your life with kids, until you have them, then you can’t imagine your life without them." ~Author Unknown It's been a week since two of our three sons flew to Manila to attend their classes. Even with the (remaining) 9 year old son at home, doing his usual stuff alternately watching tv, tinkering with his Legos, cutting/ folding/ creating things with paper and playing with the iPad, and making a ruckus all by his lonesome, the house is, weirdly, quiet. I often find myself introspecting... about the nest almost empty now and other similar thoughts. And I struggle to stop myself from wallowing in a mixed bag of emotions. It's not a bad thing, except, I could waste hours doing that. I thought I was totally in control and could dismiss the situation as another milestone, like seeing your child lose his first baby tooth. Nothing a warm hug or an ice cream could not fix. On the contrary, that hug at this time just exacerbates the yearning. It ...
