To Noah
You’re turning four today, Noah. And how my heart wishes that New Jersey is not as far as an eighteen-hour plane ride away. I terribly miss your smile, your bright smiling eyes, the warmth of your hugs. What I wouldn’t give to have you in front of me. You’d probably look at me with mischief in your eyes and playfully reach for my ear and then giggle—something you enjoy doing for some inexplicable reason.
I am waiting for the day when I could finally talk to you—ask you what you did at school or why you like listening to Barney, or how come you are fond of touching my ears. I will ask you about your favorite book, what you dreamt of the previous night, how you like your hot chocolate—with or without marshmallows? I will talk to you until you tire of Tita Beng pestering you with so many questions. But while that day has yet to happen, let me think about you and tell the whole world how crazy I am about you. Happy birthday, NOAH!

Hey Beng! He's so cute! :-) Is he the pamangkin you mentioned in your previous blog?
Tenks Tita Beng. I wished you were here too for my birthday. Tita Rae, Tito Ronnel and Ethan are already here and we're planning on spending my b-day at Chuck E Cheese. I love you Tita Beng! (thanks to the Mom for typing this message for me.)
Hi Jen, Yes, Noah is so cute! Of course, I'm biased. :-) Aren't we all, titas and titos? The nephews I mentioned were Pong and Robyn (the boys living with us).
Hi Noah! As I've told to Ethan, don't grow up too fast, OK? Hope you enjoyed your birthday. :-) Thanks Mommy Nang for typing for Noah
adorable little boy! :)
Cute! And in a Spidey costume! Hehe. You make a wonderful tita, Beng.
Hi Ruben, sweet din yan si Noah. I think ALL of my nephews like Spiderman. Maybe they'd grow up to be fanatics like you. :) Thanks Ben!
