Life Update

So what have we been up to?

Pherry-- very busy with school and college application. He is trying to bring his GPA a little higher to make sure he gets in his preferred college. This is him now during his cousin's christening. 



KC- oh what can I tell you. This young miss is very busy at school. Between her volunteer time at the library, being Vice President of the freshmen class, and  making sure she is still getting her As. Funny story: she came home to say she was number 54 of all freshmen. I said it was a good one. Then she said, but,Cindy and Taylor are 3 and 5. Left speechless, I just said well at least you pick good friends. She was laughing. 
We went to see the Boston Pops yesterday and it's so much fun to dress up with her. 
 Josh- what can I tell you about Bunso. Still such a sweet boy. He has grown so tall though and when I look at photos just a few years ago, he has changed dramatically. He had his spacers placed last Thursday and will get braces by next Saturday. He maintains good grades  and is very social. He is very loving. But you know what I really love, I love listening to his recorded voice message when he misses a phone call. So innocent and young. 
 
You probably seen this photo but so far this is my fave recently so here is my family. 
 How are you? How's your family?

Decision Made

I don't know where to start or how to say anything at all. There are so many emotions and info I would like to share. 

I have never cried so hard deeply more than when my father died until last night. The reasons are mixed and none any more than the other. Pherry made the decision last night to go to University of Massachusetts Amherst. I am very happy and elated that this prestigious public university has accepted him knowing how competitive college of engineering is. I don't know, I called Pherry down so I can talk to him but when I saw him, my heart just burst! I just started crying, like hard-core crying. I literally couldn't breath. My son, my first born just stood there, hugged me really tight and never said a word. We knew, we understood each other without saying anything. We both know what is in each other's hearts. 

It's difficult to explain. I cried and I hurt for so many reasons. For sure I cried coz it is reality--- he is moving out! I won't have my first born around. I won't have my champion, my pride and my super wonderful son. He is simple, he wouldn't ask you to buy him anything. I have never had any major issues with him or his siblings but more so with him. I never had a difficult time raising him coz he was self sufficient and independent. In fact I long for days he would need me.
