Auntie for Life!

wrote this 2 years ago, I present it to you again with minor editions

Aunties, what exactly are their roles?
I love my aunts. But this aunt I'm talking about right now is really special.
I think I spent almost half of my life with her here on earth. (literally living with her/ she used to live with us)
I saw almost half of her life as well. I remember her going to college, becoming a Christian, getting involved in the church up to the time she met her prince ( king, baker king) and the that moment she walked down the aisle. (I was really young then, maybe that's the reason why she didn't choose me to be her maid of honor) (but I had the chance to fit her gown after her wedding, that was more than cool!)
I was with her the very time she gained much weight because she already had a baby in her womb. Then I saw how she built her family together with her husband. (the one and only Jimmy, also known as Angelito (little angel)

As a teenager, I looked up to her soo much.I liked  the brands she wore, her pants, shirts, her sandals (that flat, brown, Classic sandals) and vice versa because she liked most of my things too.
Not to mention, I also followed the way she cut and styled her hair.
My mama didn't have to spend time doing homework with me because she was there, my number one "teacher". We got into petty arguments too but when it came to studying, I was always very easy to deal with. I was a good student and I listened  to all her nuggets of wisdom. I learned the joys of reading and writing with her that after I sneaked in to her diary, I was so inspired to start my own.
She was my mentor in everything. I'm not sure if we've covered everything yet. But I think we will.

Just some crazy thoughts about this aunt:
-Once, she told me that the best dental floss was the hair.  I did try pulling strands of my hair and tried it on my teeth.
-When I was in high school, she placed dirty clothes, underwear and other nasty things in my school bag.(not once  but twice)( but she made it up to me when she had to go to my school to send me the homework I left)
-she kept her love life a secret but I and my other aunt read her diary and that's when we found out about her "crazy love thing"


Some awesome things about her:
She loves her family and I do too.
She respects her parents even up to now...
She's not quarrelsome. ( I'm working my way there)
She sings for God. 
Super good vibes.
A thoughtful sister, aunt, friend, wife and mother.


P.S. I grew up not calling her auntie Judith but Inding.( no idea where I got that)


Happy Birthday Ding!!!! I'm all grown up now!  But you'll always be the "pago" I know and I'll always be your "inday" (di na lang kaayu negra)hahahahha!


Well I'm getting really good at this. Here's for you:


JUDITH
a Jesus lover,
  Undeniably a loving mother and a
  Devoted wife,
  Is in love with her family, church and work and is inspiring    others
  To be the best men and women God wants them to be for
  Him and Heaven.

I love you happy birthday!!!
