Hey my fellow read.cash fam! Hows your day? Hmmm here is raining so Christmas is fast approaching. Did you wrap already your gifts to your love ones? Hope you've done already but im not ready coz my 3 siblings is not here. So ill tell some stories how we spend our Christmas together without our parents and lil brother.
Wayback 2012 when Im planning to work at Singapore as Domestic Helper. If your my varied readers you know the half of my true to life stories, charrr!
The humble home of my elder bro at Manila. They just rent only the cute space that time but they are planning to transfer coz I tell him "I can breathe here and my niece's is so kawawa, too hot also".
Me and my sisters are planning to spend our Christmas at bros house. So we buy some foods also to bring there. The thing I dont like at Manila is "traffic". From Bagbaguin Talipapa to Holy Cross its takes 1 hour travelling at the jeep. So we need to be early. Were the one also to prepare our foods for Christmas Eves.
We celebrate our Christmas with a simple celebration with my siblings. Although were not totally completed by missing our parents and lil bro, we make it with full of happiness. To the outside world, we all grow old. But not to my brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each others hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. That is how we bond each other that no one can harm us. We live outside the touch of time.
Oh thats my eldest brother who is Nicholas, our truly chef. Although we can cook all but his the most talented in cooking. His the one I've booked in my article, one of my sideline airline booking coz his family is in Manila. His flight is on December 19 and he will be back at December 26. They are the reason why I want to learn how to booked a ticket so I'll be the one to find a cheap price for them.
People said that me and my younger sister Jacque have a similarity but she's my white version, lolš . My complexion is really morena especially when I was in highschool. Due to the CAT(Citizen Army Training) the batang 90's can relate that subject in highschool.
How I missed my other sibilings and Im truly wishing that every Christmas we can be together but its really difficult for us. They are living so far in my province. If they have enough time they will find a way to visit us.
However, we have a real singer in our family. Which is sis Josephine, she always own the microphone but sis Jacque can sing also not a in high pitch hehehe. The only thing I can do is request a song hahaha. I let sis Josephine sing my fave song such us HONESTLY by harem scarem. That photos taken at their apartment coz they are living each other.
We really adapt the attitude that we want to stick each other. As what elder bro said "once you go to Manila dont ever stay in our relatives, stay with me coz our relatives have a unique attitude". Thats the reason why my elder bro work so hard there. He dont want us to experience how he treat by our aunties/uncles. It will make you cry if you really know what happened to him.

The real Christmas is the true happiness of our own family. That we can spend with them no matter what happened. Christmas is a day of meaning and traditions. A special day to a family circle.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas. May the spirit of Christmas bring you peace. The gladness of Christmas give you hope and the warmth of Christmas grant you with full of love.

As long as the family is together, it will be a perfect Christmas, no matter if it is a small or a large space. The most important thing is to share with the family. It is also important to enjoy with the little ones at home, my couple has nephews, and I love to play with them a lot and I look for gifts that they like so that the children are very happy at Christmas.
