iM goNNa bE a DaD !

Yahoo!!!!!!! im gonna be a dad.

aug 30. i found out that my wife was delayed for 5 days. i told her, and she was still reluctant to consider that shes is really pregnant and wanted to wait for few more days to check if she really is preggy. the next day i told her " labs cgurado ako positive kna nyan, di ka nman na de-delay ng 5 days. i've checked our online monitoring guide (www.mymonthcycle.com) if we missed count or its a false alarm. i told my wife to try a P-test early in the morning just to see.

and it was positive. though she was still not sure dahil di daw visible masyado ung second line. i told her " wala naman second line kung negative ka, pero may second line na lumabas but hinde prominent." im so happy to see the result...meanwhile my wife still not convinced that she is really preggy, i told her "cge i'll buy one of those p-test na pwede mo gamitin anytime of the day and costly" just to make sure tska para mawala ung doubt nya....

second check.POSITIVE. this time kitang-kita na ung second line and tlgang sureness na..yahooo! at last my wife is convinced. late that evening we went for a early pregnancy check. Dra. Sarita Kapoor, one of the best OB in dubai at kilalang-kilala sya d2 kaso mahal nga lang, checked her up and took a blood test. next morning wife is having morning sickness then the result of the blood test was again POSITIVE.


i am so blessed and happy. first baby namin ng wife ko.a true miracle from GOD how it was formed and developed.countless blessings are coming in sa buhay namin..we just cant give back things that we have dahil alam namin na kulang pa yon sa blessings that the LORD are providing..marami pong salamat aming AMA...just continue to use us as your servants and workers. everything is for your Glory and Honor! we give you back all the WORSHIP and PRAISE!

i've been searching the net where to find Nike Airforce One - Philippines Edition. since the main man died -Francis M., nag ka interes ako humanap nito. i first saw this shoe on his blogs. being a long time fan of francis m, i can say na we have a lot of things in common. We love Hip-Hop & Rap, we love Music, we love photography and we love our country.ONE LOVE sir KIKO!




then came the urge to buy this freaking shoes. malakas na din loob ko umorder thru internet since nasubukan ko na b4 using my credit card. the problem is limited pieces lng ung na-release sa market...some of them are for sale or open for bidding but its way too expensive for me. bka batukan ako ng misis ko.hehe. then i told kuya pao about my sentiments. sabi nya "bro., wala kna makukuha nyan.kung meron man napaka-mahal. check mo ung nike-id,ikaw mismo gagawa ng color and design ng kicks mo.hmmm.. magandang idea yan....

sa sobrang kagustuhan ko magaya ung philippine flag color pattern. ang kinalabasan ng customized shoes ko ay superman theme...hahah.it might not be the same color combi, but it looks nice.and the most important of all, my wife likes it too and thats the most important part..approved kay misis...kaya no problem on ordering on-line.

Day By Day UAE 6th AnNivErSAry

Happy 6th Anniversary DAY BY DAY Christrian Ministries Dubai U.A.E.

how time pass by so fast.ang bilis, i can still remember last year's celebration where i was part of the Kaloob Dance ministry.it was the same celebration with new faces and friends. now this year, same people and more new faces and more friends. God is really good for giving me the talent and time to be part of this event.

and i think dito din nag start ang aming munting love story ng aking kabiyak.hehehe..sama-sama sa practice, punta sa center para mag rehearse tapos sabay umuwi, hayy..sarap ng pakiramdam...mag-reminisce daw ba..

there is one thing that is clear for me.HE guided me into the ministry and gave me my wife.Thank you so much dear GOD..
