365 things I like, love and learned about you, me and us

I am recycling this Note I've written 2 years ago...
Written Sept. 3, 2011


I like the simplicity of this note and the meaning of every word I wrote.

Ten years from now we would probably be sitting at the porch of our Victorian style mansion; early morning, you sip on your coffee I so genuinely created and mastered for six years of marriage. I, on the other hand is reading our favorite author Khaled Hosseinni and drinking my all time Anlene milk which you so advised me to drink seriously now. Rafa, now six years of age is haplessly playing with his toy he calls broom-broom which was given to him by his favorite lolo and our daughter Nikki now heavy at two years is playing with her toes in her crib.

Ten years is quite long. To think that we are so preoccupied with a lot of things now. Like how do we start our careers on a steady gait and how do we take things as we pace in the times where the salary is only equal to the Nine West shoes I so dying-ly want and so fitted perfectly in my long chiseled legs which by the way the one which you first fell in love with.

We are successful in our first year of relationship. We were successful in keeping it securely fastened to the circle of friends and comrades we trust and share little things with. Now, I write to tell you the 365 things I like, love and leaned about me, you and us.
