My Birthday Surprise!!!

I wear two rings to work everyday. One was an heirloom gift handed down to me by my Grandmother, and the other, a gold ring given by my dad when I graduated from college. But now, I may have to schedule which to wear as I got another one from Leih in addition to the birthstone ring his mom gave me a week ago.

Leih surprised me with two birthday cards, a small blow-out feast and a gallon of special strawberry ice cream, all delivered to my workplace by (again), my future mom-in-law, Nanay Lut. My mom cooked spaghetti and we wolfed down an array of yummy pastries from Bread Talk and Bizu.

Leih's gift was placed in a sheer lace, cradled in a small heart-shaped box. He was making me guess what his surprise was and I had a hint it would be a jewelry of some kind. What i received overwhelmed me much as it had a glistening 1.5 carat princess cut diamond on the centert, and 5 small diamonds on each side. Leih saved up to get me this, (God knows how long)...




There were no flowers today which is a first. I am not complaining though. There's nothing else that I would have wanted than this.

Happy Birthday to me!!!!!

My Opal Ring From Momma-in-Law

I am one lucky girl, and I mean it!!!

Today, my soon-to-be Mother-in-law gave me a small silver box containing an opal ring, my birthstone. It was her birthday gift to me. Since it was also Amaya's town fiesta, she dropped by our place to hand us over some food.



I must admit, I am dearly touched by my mom-in-law's gesture. She believes it would give me good luck.

I can feel how much she cares for me and Leih. I just feel so overwhelmed. My birthday hasn't arrived yet but it seems I have lots more to look forward to!
