Saturdate,the celebration

April 2 2022

Today is my sister in law's birthday ,before I will share our preparation and celebration for her birthday ,let me share first her story on how a strong ,brave woman she is.

The superwoman of the family

Ate (my sister in law)was the eldest of them ,since she is the eldest and she knew how hard their life is ,she did everything for her family especially in her siblings.After she finished elementary ,she's been a working student when she's studying highschool .After highschool she went to manila to find a better oppurtunity ,she was staying at her mom's work.My mother in law was working as a house maid in manila ,gladly she found a good employer and offered that Ate will stay there.Her mom was working because her husband's income as a farmer was not enough to feed his family and mama was felt pity for their kids ,so she decided to work and to help her husband.

Ate wanted to study and her mom decided her to study college ,pinagkasya ni mama ang sahod niya para makapag aral si ate ng college,she really wanted to study college ,coz there's a bigger job oppurtunity if you finished college but her mom can't sustain her studies becoz of little salary ,nagkautang utang si mama sa kanyang amo pang pa aral niya.

So Ate decided to stop her studies ,she was looking for any job and applied where there was a hiring company ,sometimes she find it in the newspaper.She was able to work in a mall as saleslady ,in national bookstore ,in jollibee .Gladly she was hired in a factory and dun siya nagtagal .She's the one who shoulder her younger siblings studies especially my husband their youngest sibling,until she got married ,he meet a good man who is also handsome ,having a stable job .So ,they get married and they have two kids ,a girl and a boy.Anyway,her daughter is what I mean for my yesterday's blog who got pregnant .And I told her not to tell her mother today since its her birthday and we don't know what would be her reaction ,so she better tell it to her in the other day.

Okay ,back to Ate's story ,their marriage went smoothly ,but suddenly her husband was changed ,my mother in law and my husband witnessed how he was changed.Their mother stayed with them ,to take of her kids while she's one her work and my husband was there also after he finished highschool to find job.

Her husband became so lazy ,they thought he was working but ,he leaves the house wearing his uniform but he went to his mother not in his work ,so it ends he don't have salary.They found out that ate's husband was only working for two-three days in a week ,the rest of the day he keeps sleeping or watching tv in his mother's house.He was so lazy ,it was his big changes.Time came ,he was jobless because of what he doing ,so he stayed all day at their house so mama go home to province since the father of her grandchildren was jobless and stayed all day at the house ,so he better take care of his kids.My husband stayed at ate's house and have a job also but before he left the house my husband make sure that the kids are already eat their breakfast and took them bathe coz their father does'nt gave any care for them ,since my husband's work was near at place where they lived ,during lunch break my husband checked his nephew and niece and give them food for lunch.Ate will go to work as early as 4am coz she needs to travel and when she got home she will do the laundry ,she was so very hardworking .Until she felt something bad for her and she 's done appendix operation.My husband can't take to see how the life of his ate with her husband ,they always fighting and my husband was able to punch him.Ate also decided to separate of her husband because of what he doing ,I know its hard for her but its more harder if she will stay in that situation.When they broke up ,ate applied job ni abroad and my husband take the kids here in province and leave their life in manila.The kids did'nt recieve any support from their father.

And now finally ate found a man that will truly love and support her ,she had a boyfriend now who is in Canada and this house where we stayed now was owned by the two of them.Ate was so brave to face whatever abstacles came in here life especially in raising her kids alone .She is the superwoman in the family ,we ran to her when we have problems especially in the financial she will always find ways to support her family.

The celebration

Ate planned that we will having a dinner as a celebration of her birthday at the town even she's not with us.We cooked pancit and shrimp and bring to the barbecque station where we are having a dinner.We order pork barbecue ,chicken intestine ,grilled fish and drinks.To save our food bills,we bring rice and other viand😅.The ambiance was nice with a live band but it suddenly rained so we transfered inside the eatery.

We came home at 9 pm and I was'nt able to publish this coz I was so tired😂And thats it for today ,thank you for spending your time ,have a nice day🥰
