SAGIP Smiles :)

Best Smiles

Wow its been almost 6 months since I updated this blog. I've been very very very busy after my bridal gown sale. It may not be that many but our SFC leaders used the money for the children to enjoy and assist other members on their needs. Their smiles are unfeignedly priceless :) You could check out their acitivities on this link http://www.gksagipasucion.multiply.com/ 

I dont know how to thank God for all the wonderful blessings given to me for the last 6 months. My husband and I had been in a long distance relationship for 2 years. Even now I could not beleive that we've passed through the highs and lows of this kind of relationship. It's not easy, we dealt with a lot issues in every aspect of our relationship. But on the lighter side we were given a chance to do what we want in our lives and prepare for greater responsibilities. Then there came September when the good news arrived just right at our door steps. He's with me now :) for real!  dala any bagyong ondoy hahaha

Three weeks after, another good news surprised us. We are having a baby!!! I'm on my 19th week and will be due on winter time. Then 2 months later we were able to find our rented unit to live in. Is'nt that fantastic!? :)  Our love and thanks to my Tita and Tito for accomodating us. I could not ask for more and I'm very grateful having our family and friends who continue to pray for us.

My Cinderella Story

After a month of waiting I finally found Cinderella! She slipped into my lovely bridal gown effortlessly like she has found the lost pair of her glass slipper! :D

What can I say it’s been a heart warming experience for me since it’s very unusual to find a buyer who prefer second hand gowns while some discourage me to sell it just like the two wicked step-sisters :) but with the support of family and friends I made it and its all that matters even if I'm miles away from home.

With that I’d like to take the opportunity to express my gratitude to the munificent help of the following:

My husband because of him I will not be able to wear a wedding gown haha :) I loveyoub

My mom for being so patient and lending her time for the fittings and of course my Dad and brothers, relatives and friends. I loveyou all! Achie for the prospect thank you!

Ate Ana for helping my mom :)

My SFC family especially to Ate Gigi, Jhong and Ate Beth thank you for everything. I've found the true meaning of life being a part of this community.

SAGIP kids for inspiring me to share my blessings. Be our next heroes and never lose hope, keep believing that God is always with us.

To all who post my blog site to their websites, who fb share and tweets. Emailed and make a chika about my gown to their family and friends. Amore Aventi, Weddings at Work and Kasal.com for the advertisements. Thank you!

To all who took time to inquire and do the fittings. Your sincerity in helping the kids is very much appreciated.

Someone donated 10k without taking the gown; she wanted to reach out to those kids because like them she also had problems getting to school due to financial issues during her childhood. May God bless you always!

Eva for buying my gown ;) best wishes and may you live happily ever after!

Cheers everyone! :D
