A love to last to lifetime

One romantic evening at the bus on our way home from work. I asked hubby on things he thinks add spice and keep the relationship stronger with the littlest gestures that are so loving…

I already have my lists and when I added his I got loads of whats and what nots, I mean I get the non pornographic part and boila! this is our collective effort on what keeps our relationship on fire..

1. husband still wears wedding ring no matter how tight it is on his ring finger.

2. instead of buying expensive bouquets of roses, he surprises wife with a 3 red roses, freshly pick from one of the neighbors garden! ;)

3. husband wears the wife’s sexy tops while the wife wears the husband’s boxer shorts on sleeping time

4. once the wife's cellphone rings, and unable to get hold of it he reads the message out loud or would give wifey the phone but peeks on it though, hahah. And scroll into each and one of her messages or calls. (jealous lover! hehe)

5. while you’re subconsciously sleeping you collect lots of surprise kisses and hugs from him and by that you know you’ll have a goodnight sleep!

6. he cooks your favorite meal, prepare your dinner and fill your glass with some iced tea!

7. husband whispers compliment like “you look sexy with your outfit!” at the end of a very stressful day

8. no matter how busy he is at his work, he still finds time to answer the wife’s nagging emails, senseless chats and prank phone calls. :P

9. they still hold hands while walking and look into each other’s eyes while talking anytime anywhere.

10. he surprises you with a slice of pizza on your way home! Packed with tissues which he got from their office meeting or merienda, Just for you! Forget the taste-like-tissue-pizza, it's really the thought that counts! :)

And what was that subject slash song of Jose Mari Chan got to do with this list??

Husband and wife relationship will be on the road to blissful bliss. And the road has nowhere to go but up there.. a one way street to a LOVE to last a lifetime! Hopefully.. (Crossing fingers now) Hihi

What is your Joy List?

From Bo Sanchez Joy List, i am creating mine too.. my list includes which came first to my mind and not necessarily in order! :)

1. Being with my husband on our daily travel to work and back home. His hands tightly holding mine, my head on his shoulder and getting stiff-necked after :). Talking about anything and planning things. Fall sleep at lumagpas ng destinasyon! :P lolz. Having a date once a week. Sleeping and waking up beside him everyday, oh well with Yena in between us!. ;)

2. Arriving home from a very tiring day at office and an hour or so of travel, calling out yena on the front door.. and upon seeing me and her dad, her eyes will be wide open with joyful smile and soundful gleee! it is the bestest feeling of joy in the world! i cannot imagine myself being drowned with so much happiness with this little angel of ours. :D

3. Saturday afternoon, upon arriving from work, hubby would greet me sweetly with 'baby im home!', hug me tight and kiss me passionately regardless of how i smell, (with the whole day of housekeeping and babysitting Yena, gudlak sa amoy ko!) hihih

4. Hearing Yena's contagious laughter! Being with Yena the whole weekends, playing with her, singing with her when she woke up and reading her books before she fell asleep. Or JUST the JOY of being WITH her all the time!

5. Sunday mornings at church with the whole family. Praying and thanking God for every little blessings, feeling victorious of winning over those smallest problems and sighing about things i cannot change and imploring God to take care of them for me..

6. Getting comments on my senseless posts. Promise, this one is uplifting! Reading pleasant posts from blogging friends or from the blogging world. Blog hopping. Learning and travelling the world thru the internet!

7. Receiving sensible emails, it has been part of my routine to read all my mails before burying myself with work so receiving one nice email a day keep me upbeat the whole day! Having a nice chat thru YM from friends i saw long time ago and confiding and sharing life's challenges and joys with real friends. Flirty chat on skype with husband. :)

8. Hearing someone got married, or another bouncing baby born, or a new love blooming for a friend or somebody getting engaged. Eh joyous events to noh, nakikishare talaga ako ng joy! :D
9. Spending time with my parents, sister and brother, nieces and nephews, my dog and my nearly dying fish :) OR just seeing and goofing around with cousins and relatives on a fine sunday afternoon. Plus, mother having a normal blood pressure and father maintaining normal sugar level means they are healthier which means longer life.. ;)

10. Beating the deadlines and hearing my boss excellent remarks on a job well done.. Appraisal etal, weheheh. Playing spongebob on idle days at office!! Having a chitchat with officemates who always uplift my spirit.. :D

Oh well, it is easier to count our joys than our sorrows.. and before you know it you have lots of things to be happy about that you opt to ignore!! Everyday is such a joy, sabi nga nila it's a matter of thinking! :) So how about you? What's your joy list??

for my Lolo's birthday

birthday ng lolo ko sa monday, July 7. at dahil ulyanin ako ng highest level i made this post in advance for him. i will no disclose his age kasi baka ayaw niya ipaalam sa blogging world. kaya kung usapang "wala kayo sa lolo ko", bibida na ko.

wala kayo sa lolo ko. . .

1. isa siyang active blogger at di ko na mabilang ang minimaintain niyang blog sites ngayon..
2. siya ang aking mentor sa blogging world, after reading his blog, antimano* gumawa ako ng sarili kong blog! (*antimano- hiram ko lang sa napakaraming expression ng asawa ko, in english right after, tama ba baby?:p)
3. after seeing my template, he suggested na mamili ako sa mga templates ni ate sienna sa manilena kasi mas marami raw maganda at unique na templates dun, iwan lang ako ng message kay ate sienna kung may napili na ko, wag daw ako mag alala, mabait si ate sienna, at kapatid siya ni smokey manaloto! true enough, baet talaga si ate sienna at etong template na gamit ko ay galing sa kanya, at dahil bago ako sa blogging world, my beri baet lolo did it all for me! from the smallest details siya ang may kagagawan nito.. galing noh? :)
4. ang lolo ko ay may beri adorable cutey kid na si pia na nauna pang nagkablog saken! sabi nga nila, any man can be a father. it takes someone special to be a dad. and he is that uber special, kasi he is and he will always be a good daddy to his pia.
5. ang lolo ko ay member ng blogkadahan na binubuo ng mga witty at sensible bloggers from all over the continent tulad nina ate sienna at uncle batjay. it was like travelling and learning at the same time when you're on that site. promise.
6. ang lolo ko ay nagtatrabaho bilang consultant pwede niyo siyang maging gateway to canada! true! click this.
7. ang lolo ko ay batangueno, at kung ikaw ay galing rin sa lahi ng mga expert sa balisong, click here at ikaw na lang ang hinihintay nila!
8. ang aking lolo ay may lahing andres bonifacio, estudyante pa lang siya sa pcu ay isa na siyang tibak. fave shout outs niya? GMA Resign! i guess until his last breath di na magbabago un. :)
9. mahilig mag mountain climbing ang lolo ko, kasama ang mga kasambahay at mga alumni ng sisters of mary school. opo, sisiw pa sa kanya ang umakyat ng bundok.. di pa naman siya ganun katanda. :D LOL
10. ang lolo ko at ako ay hindi related by blood (sa tubig lang!hihi). but i know him that much (if not that well!) kasi nga may isang tao na nagbubuklod sa amin, sa aming lahat na galing sa sisters of mary school, ang aming ama, founder and soon to be saint na si Fr. Al.

ang larawang ito ay kuha noong august 2006, in celebration of the sister's of mary school foundation day, dalaga pa ako at wala pang pinuproblemang postpartum tummy. hahah heheh LOL :D

Advance Happy Birthday Lolo Apol! sana sa top ten wala-ka-sa-lolo-ko list na eto ay napasaya ko ang araw mo! :)

Happy Father's Day!

1. For that super proud daddy that first to hold and behold Yena,
2. For that brave little man who cried and wasnt able to hold back his tears upon seeing his first born..
3. For that funny man who would always make Yena laugh no matter how sleepy she was..
4. For that young man who wishes to be bestfriend to his daughter and dreams of having night outs with her,
5. For that sugary man who is and always excited to get home after a day of work to be with his little family!
6. For that very protective father of the house who i am seeing to be very intimidating to future cats that would goof around his beloved chick..
7. For that childlike man who is Yena's favorite playmate now.
8. For the man who with the help of the Lord help mom fulfill the realization of her dream to be a mother.. Parang medyo green eto, its the thought that counts! :)

10. For that daddy who fondly calls Yena; Boyengyeng, Bata, Boyengyengan, Ganda and Pekpekan. Argh, the last one is so very green.
