I love kids. I really do. Actually, I have two little friends whom I considered angels – Emine, the smart and beautiful brown-eyed girl, and Ali, the ever energetic three-year-old boy.
I love spending time with them. It makes me forget about my problems in school. You know, those load of assignments such as press releases, brochures etc… Well, what can I say? That’s part of being a student right?
When my brother told us that he got his girlfriend pregnant, my family and I were in a state of shock. We never expected anything like that from him. To make it worst, he even failed to formally introduce his girl to us. That’s why we’re really surprised and at the same time, disappointed of what he did. However, the damage has been done, and we can’t do anything about it. Besides, my brother is already in a right age and is capable of supporting his own family.
The disappointment that we once felt towards my brother was like grains of sand that have drifted away into lost tides, when his girl finally gave birth to a healthy baby boy on December 23.
The birth of my nephew, Rafael Ivan was the happiest event for me and my family last year. He’s the first offspring among my siblings, and I was overwhelmed by seeing this newborn that I just knew, that in my heart belonged to us and was a small piece of me.
I’m already excited to see him grow up just like my two little friends. Ivan is really a blessing to us. He’s like an angel that brings joy to our family. His birth becomes a way for us to reunite with my brother and build a good relationship with his girl at the same time.
Now, I can say that I have indeed three angels whom I can lean on to whenever I’m down. Angels, who will teach me not to worry too much, learn how to forgive, take everything in, and just enjoy life.
The new baby and your little friends were the best of 2008 for you girl. That’s wonderful. A person can ultimately have the best within the family and the circle of friends (no matter how young they are!) Well, things seem to be improving. Good luck. [93]

Press releases and brochures.. Nah.. Very stressful. I also like kids to the point of hurting them, kidding.
I also have nephews and nieces and they push aside every sadness and weariness I feel.Having someone so new yet so much belonged to you is wonderful event to happen.
A good article.

You felt lucky but believe me, when it comes to babies luck had little to with it, especially when it’s between two healthy individuals.
I connected with this article in a lot of ways, primarily because of the nice way it was written.
I’ll rate this with a 95%.

i can relate to this article. we had the similar situations before and reaction when my brother told me that his girl was pregnant. we were shock and really annoyed.
but when Yeoj was born, he brought so much joy in our house.

I love children, too. And you know that. To be around them feels like HEAVEN is on earth. The birth of your first ever nephew, who looks like Chris Tiu (kidding!), is really a blissful time to your whole family.
I pray that he grows up a good person (and valuable basketball player). I hope to see him soon!
95 for you Aunt Girlie!

Everyone loves kids. I adore them so much. c: Just like my own little nephew (Miggy who’s turning 3 this Feb.). Sometimes when I come home from school, all the stress that I’ve felt would just disappear because of Miggy’s welcome hug for me.
This is really a nice article. Nice Job! c: I commend you for this by giving you a 94%. c:

Howdy classmate in Ms. Daisy’s class!
Regard me as a visitor.
True. Kids like me are heaven-sent to remind you adult with “s” that there’s always a child in all of us, no matter how old and grey we look, and we must never shove it away.
