The most awaited day!





Finally, dave`s "big day" has come.....

I am still filled with emotion when I think of how perfect it all was..

They were married in Grand Palazzo Royale, a beautiful and ideal venue for a wedding in Angeles City...

Blessy Joy was in her wedding gown with glittering veil and Dave was in his tuxedo. The weather cooperated as there was no downpour that afternoon. It was a perfect day. Cool wind but not a cloud in the sky.

He was elegant, looking completely happy, and i am happy for him too. I am proud and thankful that finally he has found the "right woman" to become his wife and partner for the rest of his life. I know she love him and would take care of him, stand by him through ups and downs, would do him good and not harm...... and my boy will do the same for her! Maybe its pride, joy and awe that i feel inside knowing that this day is another milestone in my son`s life and everytime i had been a witness. This one I saw how God has caused this to pass seeing His hands guiding and leading them to the right situations..... "But we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose"......

As hubby and me were getting ready to march and walk with him (dave) down the aisle, i could sense my hands were trembling. He looked so handsome in his tuxedo suit, and as i tried to control my emotion, he pulled me close, a kiss on the forehead and said, "thank you mom for everything"!, i could not hold back the tears much as i would want to......... Indeed, it was a most memorable day for me!

Walking side by side with him, i remembered another time when i was walking and holding his little hands in mine, from time to time reaching down helping him to stand whenever he stumbles........ those moments i felt the joy of being a mother, but this time i felt as if I am helping him walk for the rest of his life...

son, remember, we don`t cease to be your parents...We`re still around and will continue to be around whenever you needed us... Our prayer continues to follow you.

I would say our parent`s fears are real.... the empty nest..... of becoming old and children leaving, but the joys and celebrations with the everyday events and with the major milestone in our children`s lives make us forever grateful for everyday....

I promise to post some pictures...
