snapshots of my so-called life

i was once again chosen to be a godmother; this time to ate mercy and jayvee's cutey baby - justin miguel. from the many times that i've been asked to be a godmother, 'twas my first time to encounter an extra-ordinary christening ceremony. instead of having the water be poured on to the forehead of the baby, the child is immersed in water. and it was not done once, the child is soaked three times up to the head. imagine the riot and the chaos in the baptismal room when the babes wailed and screamed their lungs out as they were being plunged in the -thankfully, lukewarm- water. it was such an experience. actually, the celebration seemed like a fun feast! come to think of it, it should be a fun feast for the child is officialy cleansed and baptized in the Catholic faith.

and another one is added to my growing list of inaanaks. let me see if i can recall each one of them.
1. geejay (tito jun and tita jing)

2. jomic (kuya orlan and ate dory)

3. ogie (kuya buddy and ate tina)

4. jason (kuya boyet and ate merlet)

5. hazel (kuya gerry and ate helen)

6. hans (kuya noel and ate duda)

7. beng (emy)

8. gwen (kuya joel and joanne)

9. justin (jayvee and ate mercy)

wow! i didn't realize that i already have a close to a dozen godchildren. for sure, the coming years would produce a dozen more.
