Elle's second time in Cebu

It is the second time for Elle to visit Cebu but this time we stayed at Marco Polo Hotel in Lahug. I had a meeting for two days and my father-daughter tandem spent their days swimming at the Marco Polo pool... It is so nice to look at Elle and Noy enjoying the water. A couple of times I was tempted to join them but instead chose to just stay in the corner and master the art of "taking photos of the two people i love most".

I have always dreamed of having a family of my own and now that I have it I just can't stop thanking God over and over again for the beautiful family He has given me amidst my imperfections...

I love God.
I love Noy...
I love him for Elle
and I love him for loving me sooo much...

Elle's first hair cut




Elle had her first haircut last November 2 at Kids Hair Salon, Rustan's-Makati. I admired my young lady's courage because she did not cry the whole time. She was too busy with the steering wheel!!!

I am not ashamed to say that I am a stage mother! The whole time Elle was having her haircut, I kept on taking her pictures. I was even giving Kuya instructions as to how Elle's hair should look like! Of course, the hair is every woman's crowning glory! I would not want Elle's crowning glory diminished.

I ordered for the "first hair cut" certificate with Elle's cutted hair! It is now being displayed at home! When Elle is big enough, she will read what is written on the certificate and thank me for taking good care of her appearance . I would not want Elle to be "ma physical" but I want her to take good care of her physical looks and at the same time work on being humble and grounded.

I will teach Elle to thank God everyday for all the blessings He has given her. I will teach her that life is so beautiful as long as she trusts in God...
