Happy birthday, Tatay!

Dear Tatay,

I thank God that I have you as my Tatay. I maybe barely 2 months old and we may be apart for the past 3 weeks but our bond goes beyond distance and how long we've known each other.

Thank you for taking good care of me and Nanay when I was still in her womb.

Thank you for cooking for us when Nanay was not feeling well, for giving her massage when she had aches and pains and even for accompanying her to the hospital during her pre-natal check ups.

Thank you for braving the delivery room, for comforting her while she was on labor and coaching her during delivery.

Thank you for taking my first photo. I may seem tired but I am happy I have this shot to look at when I'm grown up.

Thanks for mastering the '5 words that babies use,' which you even wrote down when I was a few days old so you will not forget.

Thanks for helping Nanay out whenever I wake up at night eventhough you still have to work in the morning.

Thank you for massaging my tummy everytime I want to pass gas.

I look forward to being with you again and having longer bonding time with you. I am happy to know that you missed me a lot while you're away. Know that I missed you too. I even had difficulty sleeping and I cried a lot during the first few nights that we're apart.


Thanks also for showing me your artistic style with the Oppa Quest Style that you did. I find it cute.

I can't help but smile often nowadays knowing that I will be with you soon.


I know we'll have great fun especially when we can already walk and run together at the park, play ball or computer games, play the guitar and sing together. 

I love you so much, Tatay! Have a very happy birthday! :)

Quest : 1st Month







  • Now 4.1 kilos heavy and 52 cm long! Yey!
  • I was visited last Sunday by our churchmates and they're all excited to see me at church. I even charmed the teenage girls :)
  • Mamu Dorcas saw the video that Tita Ruth took while I was crying and she said to Nanay, "grabe mag cry no. Ikaw na ikaw." Don't blame me for being loud Nanay since you started it. :)
  • Last Monday night, Nanay told me that Tita Ruth will be going back to Manila and I will miss hearing her high-pitched voice whenever she calls my name. Nanay was surprised that I waved my hand and smiled after she told me that Tita was leaving.
  • Last Tuesday, Tatay played with me while we were both lying in bed. He placed his hand in front of me to see if I will follow it with my gaze and they're all surprised that I did! 
  • Last Thursday, Tatay was able to make me sleep for the first time! :)
  • Sleeping has been difficult for me since Tatay left for the Philippines because I miss him a lot but Nanay  and Lola have been very patient with me.
  • Went for physical check up last Saturday and the nurse said I'm healthy and very strong! Thank God!
