I AM RICH! Yes, I tell that to myself whenever I know that I've kept true friends through the years. These are the people that have known me when I was at my innocent phase, was with me during experimental stage, stood by me during my "dark ages," guided me during my "wild" days, soared with me during my career highs, and witnessed my zigzag transformation from being single to being married then back to being single again. Then when a miracle happened in my life, being a mother, they were there to share my unexplainable and overwhelming joy. I'm rich. I'm rich.
But now, I AM RICHER! No I don't have a booming business. No, I don't have an unbelievably high paying job. And no, I didn't win any lotto. I am now richer because other than having found a second chance in life and love and with it is having a beautiful family, I have met yet another set of beautiful souls: Martine and Denise.

Mademoiselles Day Out
As fate would have it, October 5th happened when we met up for brunch and desserts. It was almost a half day of no holds barred sharing of anything and everything that concerns us as women, as moms, as wives, and as bloggers. There was definitely a synergy of mommy souls from different walks of life. Martine is a WAHM, Denise is a SAHM and I'm a working mom. Put them altogether, what do you get? RIOT. A beautiful riot which hopefully would blossom to deeper friendships.
Let me share some snapshots of that fateful day:

Hi Louise,
ReplyDeleteI had a great time reading your blog today, as always..hehe! I've been following your blogs and FB posts and really find inspirations from one of them. Anyways, cheers to your friendship with Miss Martine and Miss Denise, more power to you guys. I just remember the quote " birds with same feathers flock together.." that's you guys, same interest, same life style with same passion. You do inspire ladies and moms like me..:) Godbless you always..
Awww, Louise! Ka-touch naman. Pero yes, we're so random nga. Pati Rated R stuff! Hihi. But that's what I love about our day out, no walls or whatsoever. I hope there's next time. Hugs, madame! :)
ReplyDeleteBtw, bait ng ex ni Martine for taking our photos. :)
It sure is fun to have a girl's day out! I think I am rich because I get to be there for my children and that my hubby could support me. :-)
