I was not close to my father while growing up. But now that I am mature, I realized that I did not dislike him, I only disliked that he did not approved most of what I did. I am so lucky that the very first time he met my hubby (akyat ng ligaw), he liked him. In fact, he stayed in our sala to chat which he never did with any other guy who came to visit our house. Obviously, he approved of him. In fact, after the announcement party (pamanhikan), it was very obvious that he really like hubby’s family.

Lately, we noticed that my daughter give him so much joy. So as a good daughter (ok ok my mom and siblings may disagree with me being a good daughter now, hahaha), I try to bring Mikee to my parents’ house every week.

Anyway, last night, to celebrate mothers’ day, we had dinner with them. Sharing some pics of Mikee with her Papa Al.

Note: Do you know Juan Rodrigo (Amante, Clara’s father in Mara Clara)? He’s my father’s cousin.
