Does anyone remember the line 'I'm going home to the place where I belong'? I can't remember the song title but this just popped up in my head. Why? Maybe because I am missing my husband. uwu

I would like to thank and flex my sponsors who kept supporting me in every little way. Check them out!

Thanks sis @Bloghound for renewing your sponsorship !! HUHUHU

Some of you may have already read my articles about my family. For those who haven't, my husband works in Leyte. We got married last year before I gave birth, yes in the middle of the pandemic. Right now, I am still staying in my parents house in Marikina. I had a C-section when I gave birth and while I needed time to recover I need some assistance with me and Lil B. My husband can go home to us at least once a month depending on the pandemic restrictions.

This month, he's supposed to go home after visiting his parents in Cebu (because of the Typhoon Odette). We are glad that they are slowly going back up and a few days ago the electricity are back up and running, we definitely are relieved to hear the news and I hope other towns that has been devastated by Odette recovers soon too.

Anyway, he was supposed to go home this January however, the restrictions went back to Alert Level 3. Well, even if the restrictions are up again he can still go home to us. Yesterday afternoon, he told me that he wanted to go home to us. It's his rest day for the whole week and some of his meetings were cancelled but he simply can't. Due to the number of cases here and in the province, he can't take the risk going home as there were 5 people in their office who tested positive. He's trying his best to be healthy and he doensn't want to take the risk of going home.

Now he's taking time to look for an apartment for us in Leyte so we can be together as a family. I know that staying with my parents is very convenient for us however, it's heartbreaking for me to be away with my husband. Most of all, it's more heartbreaking for me to see Lil B growing up with her daddy away most of the time.

Pandemic babies

I've been seeing a lot of my batchmates in highschool and in college who are getting pregnant and just gave birth. I remember what my OB said when I was still pregnant. She has a lot of fertility patients who were trying to conceive for so long and since pandemic happened, most of them got pregnant because of the work-from-home setup. Yes, less stress from travelling to work, less time and effort to spend going to work and more time for family.

Family time

This is very important to me. Growing up, my parents have to work extra hard to earn money while we were growing up. There were just a few memories of us bonding as a family that I can remember. I don't know why but I wanted to have more family for my own family while we still can.

I am lucky enough to be a full time mom while my husband is the one working but soon as Lil B grows up, I will need to work too. This is the main reason why I am feeling a bit sad while my husband is away. I want us to make memories that we can share when Lil B grows up. Memories that we all three can treasure.

I think just miss my husband. Just a little sacrifice and we will all be together.
