Usually when referring to the Spouse, you call them “my better half”. In my case, Kap really IS the better half of our relationship hands down.

I always kid that he is the sugar while I am the spice. 20% joke lang yan. Because contrary to what people see on the outside, Kap is the angel, and I am the she-devil in our relationship. 😛 Sobrang bait & considerate talaga si Kap. Even in traffic, he will let everyone go ahead. I’m the hot-headed one na magsisik-sik talaga & honk when slighted by the crazy drivers out there. Si Kap, cool as a cucumber. Never si Kap aatakihin sa puso coz he’s so chill.
I always say, if it weren’t for Kap my Kap, buti kung pansinin ako ni Lord. Sabit lang ako sa blessings ng jowa ko. Our family is blessed because of the Head. The one steady & constant figure, he always puts God first & teaches us to consult God before making any decisions. While Kap is the Stop & Wait Wait Wait. Ako yung.. Go Go Go! Which is why lagi nagkaka-leche-leche ang buhay namin.
One example: early in out marriage, my mom gifted us with a 1,000 square meter lot along Madrigal Avenue in our village. It only cost around 5k/square meter that time. Because I am always fast-forward, I wanted to sell so we can buy a smaller lot with a house na. Kap held me off as long as he can but when I turned exorcist, wala na syang magawa. Benta ang drama.
Fast forward to now. The lots here are selling 60-80k/square meter. Donya na sana ako if I listened to him. Laging nasa huli ang pagsisisi.
And now, we are almost at another important crossroad. Konting-konting push nalang. Nabulilyaso because God is disciplining me. Napaka-tigas na naman daw ng ulo ko. I am leading again instead of following. So now, hard as it may be, I am trying to let Kap be the one in control kasi may ulterior motive ako (peace, Lord). I want God’s blessings for our family. And I have to let Jesus take the wheel, and let Kap be His hand.

Pasahero lang ako. Back-seat driver pwede naman siguro, basta si Kap pa rin ang totoong driver. Saan ka pa, basta driver sweet lover diba. So payag na ako! 😛

July 28, 2015 at 8:59 amDiba? super rah-rah girls nila tayo hehe.
July 28, 2015 at 10:16 amI agree with Kap! Just wait and see, God has something better and bigger for you! May God continue to give you and Kap wisdom in everything that you do. I am excited to see kung ano ang surprise sa inyo ni Lord. Exciting ito……..
July 28, 2015 at 9:19 amKating kati na kasi ako mediiiiing!! ;P Gusto ko nang humarurot. Ang shonda ko naaaa.
July 28, 2015 at 10:17 amBTW curious ako sa crossroad mo na iyan… kami din ni husband, waiting to go or not to go. Maybe the four of us should have a meeting and magpalitan ng kuro-kuro. LOL
July 28, 2015 at 9:21 amhahaha tara let’s! Meeting of the minds tayo! ;))
July 28, 2015 at 10:18 amYou complement each other po, Ms. Jane… Ganyang-ganyan din po kami ni hubby.I am also the impatient one, the go-getter. It really helps talaga to listen to our partner’s opinion on things and try to weigh the consequences.
Ang personality po kasi natin is “Strike while the iron is hot”… Kaya madalas mapaso tayo. Hahaha!
July 28, 2015 at 9:29 amHay korek ka jan Kei! Salamat sa words of wisdom mo that I also get to apply in my life. :-*
July 28, 2015 at 11:05 amTama yan, it doesn’t make us any less of a person if we choose to follow. God has given us different roles to play in this life, and it doesn’t mean that one is less than the other. Necessary lang talaga yun para mag move forward at ma-fulfill ang plans niya sa buhay natin.
*naks!*
…hahaha…
July 28, 2015 at 4:34 pmWow is that you Niel? ;)) So seryus! ;-*
July 28, 2015 at 5:09 pmMommy Jane, there is really wisdom on God’s command for “us to submit to our husbands”. The Lord knows they are (generally) the level-headed ones. This is one area I continue to struggle. Gabriela Silang yata ang ninuno natin. Hehehe
July 28, 2015 at 5:35 pmHay naku I’m so glad nakaka-relate ka haha. Ang hirap talagang mag-submit. DIyan ako laging nada-dale Candy hehe! 😛
July 28, 2015 at 5:40 pmHay naku Mother ganon ata talaga. Akl din like you ura urada! Si husband ko chill lang parang si Kap. Pag isipan muna ako si atat eh haha! Sabi nga ang mag asawa daw meron daw isa na good at bad. Admitted na ko na sya yung good ako yung bad. Dahil pag good sya hatak na din ako kahit ang bad ko hahaha!
July 28, 2015 at 9:39 pmAyaaaan. Kaya tayo nagkakasundo! #LamNa hahaha! 😛
July 28, 2015 at 9:41 pmI’m still learning to be the obedient one na. Sabi ni A sobrang sanay ko na raw kumilos mag-isa so I need to learn to consider a partner na raw. Well, I really have to na. Similar si A at Kap, Mama Bear, kalmado lang lagi kahit na bwisit ka na. hahahaha!
July 29, 2015 at 3:32 pmThat’s good, never sila magka-heart attack haha. Tayo lang ang laging kunsumido hahaha! 😛
July 29, 2015 at 3:50 pmWow Miss Jane, this was just wonderful. I will always pray that God will bless me with a jowa and a family like yours. 🙂 salute to your wilingness to bend. 🙂
August 4, 2015 at 2:32 pmThank you for your kindness Joy! <3
