Summer Vacation 2008

Daddy went home last April 25. His vacation would be two weeks from the 25th of April to the 10th of May. Orginally our plan was that we will be flying to Kuwait with him after his vacation. Since he was able to process the documents needed for the application of the visa. But unfortunately, my fear materialized. I failed the medical test. My left lung shows pleural thickening which was due to the lung operation I had in 2004. I don't want to dwell much about it now since I have suffered because of this for four months now. I'm trying to get back on track. Good thing Daddy went home.

I was happy to say that when I open the gate and Anevay saw daddy she said 'DADDY!'. Yap, she recognized her dad even if the last time she saw him was last Jan 4. Anevay and daddy always talks through YM over speaker and webcams. Aside from the phone calls that Daddy makes. And then I also put nine 8R pics of her and her daddy on the wall of our room so she can see Daddy everywhere in our room. ;). When daddy entered the room, Anevay was shy at first. But she began to open up when Daddy started playing with her. And when sleeping time came she already sleep beside Daddy.

The vacation was spend wisely at home and sometimes on malls. We were able to have a summer outing with the family during my birthday. Daddy gave me an earring and a necklace as a birthday gift ;). I was able to have that haircut that I needed badly since Daddy took care of Anevay. Although it was short, he had so much quality time with me and Anevay. It feels so good to talk with someone who knows what I am thinking even if I do not talk about it. Someone who can say something that is inside my head. I can even laught to my hearts content because the person who can make me laugh really hard was beside me.

We were so used to him at the house that saying goodbye seems so hard again. I saw Daddy cry again. He is having a hard time leaving his babies again. Although we've been through it a lot time already GOODBYE is always a painful thing. Daddy left when Anevay was sleeping. And when Anevay woke up she seems to be looking for daddy. The next day, she knocked on the close bathroom door and she calls for his daddy. It was really heartbreaking.

Daddy and I made a promised to ourself. This would only happen for five years. After five years he should be finished with work in Kuwait and would be with us always. But for that to happen we need to be discipline regarding our finances and should be able to establish businesses that would compensate and should surpass the income he is now receiving in Kuwait.
