Today is my first birthday I am celebrating without Papa. It's sad for I know ten days after we're going to celebrate his without him. Nevertheless, we will cherish the memories of him and everything about him with hope that we will see each other in heaven soon. I miss Papa so much! :-)
When I entered my office, I was surprised with the graffiti I saw on the whiteboard. These made me smile for thoughts are more precious and cherished. These make me feel loved...
And when I sat on my table... I saw this small note taken from my very own notepad!
Yesterday, my neighbors, the Guidance and the MOCA offices surprised me of a fettuccine as a pre-birthday gift. A friend of mine also gave a gift for shopping but instead I converted it to cash and gave it to my sister as an additional amount for her tuition fee. (this made me feel better than shopping, though I'd like to shop)
These were just a start, later when I go home my mom would serve me her very own valenciana which I love. :-) and later soon my friends and I are going to celebrate still. I don't know what their plans yet but it will be another surprise just like what they did last year.
Then more kisses and greetings from my coteachers who loved me! hehehe
To sum it up, I am blessed! really blessed! And I am thankful to God for people He brought in my life. I missed Papa yet God made this day a meaningful one for me.
To end this, I recorded a video of my students as they entered inside the office singing a birthday song for me. :-)
Thank you Lord for these wonderful blessings!
