This was what transpired on hubby’s birthday last February 25. While people were rallying in Manila, we were having a quiet happy celebration of his 31st birthday in the suburbia land.
>>>24th
I put Ethan to sleep as early as I could to finish the AVP surprise I was doing for hubby. I had no gift for him as I had no time shopping alone, we always go out as a pack and would always watch what each of us would bring to the registrars/cashiers’ end. Hubby arrived a little after 10pm, I literally slammed my laptop down so he couldn’t see what I was cooking for him. Expectedly, being the selfless person that he is, he arrived with a gift for the little boy, hence these photos and entry. I told him I had a lot of pending OPPS and that I'll be sleeping really late, thanks for my understanding hubby, he slept ahead of me. I started doing the AVP seriously at around 11pm. I was literally buzzing my technical people in YM (read: abie, mel, leah, tin etc…) asking them about slides, music, and moviemaker. With the gazillion of photos I had, it took me no more than 5 hours to compile everything. In between, hubby was waking up asking me what time I will be sleeping with him, I managed greet him with a kiss. For the 1st time in many years, we were celebrating his birthday together, last year, he was in Chicago, the other year, he was in Cebu and in previous years, he was either in Iloilo or Bacolod. By around 5am, I was ready to convert it to a movie, my laptop hanged on me, SH*T!!! Everything got busted!!! I restarted it and left nothing but a decision to make the photo slides in the very Jurassic site of slides.com tsk tsk. But with more than 100 photos, the system was hanging every 5 minutes or so whenever I was putting on the captions. I gave up at 6am =(((
>>>25th his birthday
Obviously, hubby and the little boy woke up ahead of me, I was groggy by the time they were both awake. As soon as they woke up, I told him that I made an AVP surprise but it was messed up, it was supposed to be playing to the tune of “What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong” (his favorite song) 1st thing in the morning when he wakes up. He said it was okay and that he was happiest since all 3 of us were together on his day and that itself made him complete (mush mushyness LOL!). I showed him this instead, a VERY unedited slides.com slides (you can try scrolling down your mouses in the lower part of the video to see the unfinished caption.) Sheeesh kainis talaga! Lesson learned: never cram a birthday surprise!
At lunch, we had pancit, cake and some other fattening food that day. Obviously, he left for work after lunch. I managed to sleep the rest of the afternoon. I realized, we don’t have a picture together, so here’s the only picture I took of the birthday boy with the best birthday gift he could ever have, that being with his son.

AGAIN, to stripe:
Happy happy 31st Birthday to my Husband who tries to make my son and my life as comfortable as he could, he thinks of himself always as his last priority in life, for a baba/papa who knows nothing except shower the boy with lessons, love and of course toyssss, for a selfless person who can’t say NO especially when it comes to his loved ones, for an in-law who loves and adores my family sooo much, especially my mom, for a friend with an old soul, good vibes and good communication skills and drinking habits LOL!, and lastly, for the chickboy who never ceases to amaze me with his goodlooks, charms and you know what else follows after that LOL!.
ETHAN and I LOVE YOU SO SO MUCH! We appreciate all of your hardwork, patience and selflessness. Looking forward to celebrating more birthdays with our family and most especially with our future APOs.
Love, yellow.
