A Natal Day Celebration

A natal day celebration is a very common tradition for us Filipinos.  We believe  birthday  celebration is not only for kids but for adults as well. October 22 is the birthday of Ate Aieen, one of my bestfriends. I truly miss her a lot. I had no chance to greet her in person because right now she's in Saudi Arabia working as librarian. And to show and express my greetings and wishes, I posted on her facebook's wall some photo art and birthday wishes.

God gave a gift to the world when you were born; a person who loves and cares, who sees a person's need and fills it, who encourages and lifts people up, who spends energy on others rather than yourself, who touches each life you enter and makes a difference in the world. May the love you have shown to others return to you multiplied. May each and every passing year bring you wisdom, peace and cheer. You'll always be forever young. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
 
Hope this day is as special as you are. Count your life by smiles, not tears. Count your age by friends, not years. You're not getting older, you're getting better. May the years continue to be good to you. May this year bring with it all the success and fulfillment your heart desires. I'm so glad you were born, because you brighten my life and fill it with joy. Your best years are still ahead of you. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Last thursday, October 22, 2009, Jasmin and I went to San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan to visit Ate Aieen's family and be a part of the simple celebration of her birthday prepared by her beloved family. We savored the sumptuous foods they served like

beef caldereta,


crispy pata,


and hazel nut mousse desire cake from Goldilocks.

We never missed the opportunity of having a photo shoots with Ate Aieen's two angels, Cedie and Ashley (my godchild). They're really super cute and lovable kids.

We not only savored the sumptuous dinner we had with her family for we had also a great fun  and precious bonding moment with her two kids, Cedie and Ashley. And to Ate Aieen, the greatest bestfriend I ever had, a million thanks to you for everything. I couldn't find enough words to define how grateful I was when you came into my life and being a part of it. You're a precious and best priceless gift I have ever received from Above.

Again, happy birthday to you!!! I love you so much, my bestfriend.  Missing you so much!!!
