Countdown to 28

Aside from the stork's delivery of Sidney, one thing that I look forward to is my family's visit here in Bukidnon. These past few days, I was anxiously thinking about what will happen when we finally meet again with an additional family member, Sidney. Being away for so long, I really miss them and I feel bad not being with them especially in trying times. Not to mention, I was thinking 'what if I cannot relate to them anymore?' I'll probably die a little bit inside.

My dad called me today and the feeling of longing doubled. I want to feel their hugs again. The conversation was light hearted, nothing really heavy or what but I can feel the longing and care and love too. I felt assured that there is a home for me whatever may happen and that I can be safe there with them.

I am excited to see Sidney, but there is a difference when the one you're expecting to see is the love you have from far away. Sidney and Ren made a new chapter in my life - both of significant importance, both are delicious slices of life.
