There is something so special about walking with people through the different seasons of their lives. ๐ฅน
I still remember coordinating and hosting Pau and Neriโs wedding day back in 2024. Then, not too long after, we met again in 2025 to celebrate their little oneโs church dedication and this time, I was there not as a host or coordinator but as her ninang. ๐ค And then now mid-2026, here we are again celebrating pretty Duaโs first birthday. โจ What a beautiful privilege it has been to witness Godโs faithfulness in this familyโs journey through the years! And on this special day, as both the host and the birthday girlโs ninang, my heart was so full! ๐ฉท Seeing her smile, laugh, and be surrounded by so much love is a beautiful memory I know Iโll cherish for a long time. โบ๏ธโจ
To my dearest mga marssss, thank you for trusting me once againโฆ not only to host this special milestone, but most especially for entrusting me with the privilege of being your beautiful daughterโs ninang. It means more to me than you know. ๐ฅน Thank you for allowing me to continue celebrating lifeโs sweetest milestones with your growing family. I love you both, and Iโm so proud of the beautiful home youโre building together. ๐ค
And to my precious inaanak, happy first birthday, Dua! ๐ธ You have your whole life ahead of you, and I pray that you will continue to grow in wisdom, grace, and in the love of the Lord. I look forward to celebrating not just your birthdays, but many more milestones and precious moments with you as you grow. May you always know how deeply loved you are. God bless you always. Ninang Swanee and Tito Drew love you very much! ๐ซถ๐ผ
