It was 13 years ago that Dad left for the States. I was so young then. But I always knew I had a father who is working far away so he could provide us our daily needs, good education, and a good future. And he has been home four times during those long years.
1. Spend my birthday with him. He was able to make sure he was at my birthday during those visits he made. He even attended some recognition days where he gets the honor of placing the medal ’round my neck! ^_^
2. Have a family vacation to Manila. This one we were able to spend a week I guess (I can’t remember much of it now..) doing the typical things a family would do in a mall.. fun.fun.fun.shop.shop.shop! and a whole lot of eating! 
3. Be with my dad for the longest time – as a family forever. Here where he is.
McCarran Airport upon arrival. Last picture I took. And the only one that is allowed in this area.
I’ll finally get my dream come true though – partly! And that’s seeing dad for the first time after 6 YEARS!
