Painting The Silence...

I had a wonderful birthday. This is the first time that I got two rings as birthday gifts. The other week, Leih's mom gave me an Opal ring. Then today, Leihson surprised me with two birthday cards, a small blowout feast which was delivered to the office, and a big gallon of my favorite strawberry ice cream. We had spaghetti and an array of yummy pastries from Bread Talk. Afterwards, Nanay Lut handed to me a golden sheer laced bag with a ring box in it... I knew it! Leih's gift was a diamond ring! We've been playing guess for the longest time and he even gave me clues such as "small," "colorful" and "hard." He would deny it whenever I'd say ring. Funny... I was right all along... He gave me a glistening 1.5 carat diamond ring, it had 5 diamonds with the largest in the middle. He did not give me flowers today. But I surely loved his surprise..I don't think there's anything else I would have w...

Today is Amaya's town fiesta. I was still at the gym trying to break a sweat when Nanay Lut (Leih's mom) dropped by our place to give us some food from the fiesta. She also handed to my mom a small silver box with a tag "A Gift For You"... It was her early birthday gift to me.. I was so touched by her gesture. She really remembered my birthday and went out of her way to purchase this beautiful ring with my birthstone on it. She says it's for good luck. I am so lucky for having Nanay Lut as my future mother-in-law. I can feel that she loves me already. Words are not enough to express how grateful and happy I am. My birthday hasn't arrived yet, but I think I'm gonna have a lot more to look forward to...
