Tuesday, I wasn’t able to go with ate to school since it was my kuya’s 50th birthday! <3 Of course I had to make sure my kuya felt special on his birthday, so I excused myself from my mommy duties for a night.

My kuya is really my cousin. Our moms are siblings. But she passed while my kuya was still a child due to Lupus. So my Mom sorta took him in, along with his sister, whom I also consider as my very own.

Two of my people!

All 4 of us grew up together, so I really felt like I had a kuya growing up. He is the sweetest, dearest, kindest kuya anyone can ever have. <3 He always helps me out. He is the first one to come to my family’s events or parties to help me out, and the last one to leave -making sure everything has been covered before he does. He really takes his job as the eldest seriously!

He asked me for recommendations on where we can celebrate his birthday dinner. Of course only one name comes to mind.. OMAKASE!

That’s my sister on the leftmost. And my sister-in-law beside me. Boo.. ate is sorely missing! :'(( Si Mommy talaga.. kung saan saan nakatingin, hay! @_@

My kuya@ <3 TOPGUN talaga ang dating! ;)) (top gone.. get it???)

All together now!

I love you, kuya! <3 Thank you for loving me & for treating me like your real sister. You have done so much for me & my family. I just want you to know that I super kaduper appreciate you!! m/ One day, pag rich na ako, pa-retire na talaga kita. I will buy you a farm-con-fish pond so you can relax na & enjoy your golden years.

May you have many more birthdays to come, kuya! May God grant you good health & long life in the years to come! :-*
