The greatest joy

It was a fiesta back home in our town though last April 27 but too bad me and my family are not there to attend and join their joyous time. It is really fun everytime fiesta comes, everybody is happy, lots of foods and lots of activities in gym to watch every night of the month. It is been so long since I attended. Anyway it is okay because there are still lots of time to attend, when we move back to the Philippines when hubby retires for good. Right now I have to hang on. Anyway we could attend in different occasions but not the fiesta time since hubby’s vacation time doesn’t fit in. I also love to spend my time back home during Christmas time but I don’t know if it would happen this year. We will see. Christmas time back home is just incomparable, despite of poverty yet people are happy to celebrate the occasions. They don’t need much money but you can see the happiest faces on earth.  Imagine they will come to your house and sing for you a Christmas songs, a group of adult or group of kids. I miss that time and that is why I would my daughter to experience the Christmas holiday in there. She surely would have tons of fun.

It has been 2 days that my sister is here with us. So far it is great being with her though. She loves to cook filipino food and she will call me when the foods are ready serve on the table. How I love her to be here. Although I don’t command her to cook or something but she is volunteering to do it. She is good in cooking though. She understand that I couldn’t cook every time because I have my work online. She said she loves to stay here with us but I told her that she can’t since she has to report back home otherwise her papers here in US will be messed up and we don’t that to happen. Hubby supported her ticket back home and when she came from North Carolina where she had been together with her fiance. Things didn’t go well and she had to leave him and be back to the Philippines. Anyway I am just thankful that the guy let her go despite it was against his will but since he wasn’t treating her good, he wasn’t deserving to have my sister with him. Of course I have to protect my sister. Everyone of us wants our siblings to have the good life but if he is only treating her like a slave, that is not a good thing. He was a manipulative guy.

Guess what? As what I have said here before that I don’t do cooking because one reason is I have lack of knowledge on how to cook. My golly! I didn’t know that cooking spaghetti is the easiest to do. For the first time in my life that I cook an American Spaghetti, which all you have to do is to boil a water then put the spaghetti noodle in it until it gets firm. Then get a spag sauce, heat it up then put some meat balls in it, then that’s all, ready to serve. Whoaaah! I am so proud of myself right now hehe! I am like Dora the Explorer that would like to scream that “I did it” several times LOL! I am kinda sound funny here though yet ashame because I should have known how to make spaghetti since I got here in US when reuniting hubby. He would have been happier I serve him for a long time when he wants to eat it. Hmmm.. I should start cooking more even how clutter our kitchen though.

I know I should cook something for hubby for his dinner when he comes home from work but I don’t know why I just don’t like to do it. One of the reason is, there is no one who could help me watch my daughter when I am cooking. She gets into everything and she is hard to control. She wants to do everything she wants which freaks me out everything I am in the kitchen. Secondly, the kitchen is small, a lot of stuffs sitting on the counter which I don’t know where to put them since we don’t have no more space. We don’t have a big house for the four of us. Thirdly, is that it is too hard to think what to cook everytime which is any kind of cuisine. All I could do is to search recipes into the net. I have been doing it but just for a short while. Anyway, Despite of my laziness to cook, hubby didn’t care and hopefully forever haha. Do I sound bad? I told him I would back to cook anything when he gives me enough room in the kitchen and when he is there to watch our daughter. I am almost 4 years here in US but the only food I cook is filipino foods but also rare. I know I keep reminding myself that I need to do it even it is against my will but I have to so the relationship will stronger but I believe if your partner loves you dearly, no matter who you are and what you can and can’t do he would stay with you forever. Anyway it is just only the cooking that I don’t do but aside from like doing laundry, cleaning, watching kid and working online are my expert LOL!

The greatest joy I have in my life is when I met my wonderful husband and when my child was born. I got married when I was at the age of 23 years old which I thought was the right age to commit relationship. Although we didn’t have the church wedding yet, since we only had civil wedding here in US. Our plan is to have the church wedding back home in our 5th wedding anniversary. Being with my husband is such a great joy in my heart. I love being his wife and being a mom of my almost 3 years old daughter. The two of them are my everything. Secondly is my family back home even though they give me headaches because of financial problem, which me and hubby are the one who shoulder everything their needs LOL! Despite of my age gap of me and hubby but I didn’t feel embarassed or awful about it, it is just like we have the same age. Without him I don’t know how to live.
