Grandma :) Thank you for making your house so welcome and I dunno..just being a grandma :) It was so great seeing you during my visit there in California. I miss you a great deal and the great food you make whenever we came over :) I love you very much!

Auntie Evelyn (Ninang), thank you for being there for me...esp when I needed you most. You have been like a second mother to me and want you to know that I appreciate what you have done for me. :) Had a great time seeing you after being gone for so long...Miss you and hope to see you again soon.

Lauryn, you are my only girl cousin and like a sister to me. I want you to know that I am always here for you as you have always been there for me. We've shared our moments and remember the times we goofed off? From my infamous lip-synching on the bed to our NKOTB days where we waited for about 8 hours in the cold to be able to be close to our faves... Don't sweat about living where you are now..things will turn out better..Don't let those ignorant ppl get you down. They don't know any better and need to grow up! *smile* I love ya, girl, and take care of yourself, okies?

Hey Auntie Aurora! Been awhile since I've seen you and sorry we didn't get a chance to see each other when I was over there in California :( Thanks for everything and being there to talk to. Maybe I'll get to go back to California soon and finally see ya, right? Everytime I go to the Disney Store and spot Goofy, I think of you :) Take care and stay the same "Goofy" aunt you have always been...

Auntie Darlene & Uncle Ferd-- thank you for making me a part of your trips to the many places we have been to as well as for everything that you have done. I got to see places I could have never imagined being before.

Raul & Caryn, Congrats on the engagement :) Miss you guys and remember the fun time I had ..like when I helped take care of your chickens :) I can never forget how a rooster tried to jump on my shoulder! ;) So...is that why you picked that nick for yourself on the internet, Raul? *grin* I'm sorry I wasn't able to see you guys while I was there...I felt that one month was enough time to see everyone and do things..but I guess I was wrong...Maybe next time? In the meantime, I guess we can keep up on ICQ or Netmeeting like we have been doing, which is cool :) Take care!
