Gagmay pa mi dayon kami jud tanan, patitit sa bakilid dayon laba sila Papa ug Mama, kami langoy-langoy, kaon-kaon biscuit nga pink nga ituslob sa sapa..hehehe ...Tungtong sa bato kon tugnawon, dayon tabang kuso-kuso bisan dili mao...samoksamok in other words but they tolerate it...and why can't I forget it? coz I almost drowned...hehehe 2.)

Frailyn: Daghan man oi. Pero ag mitatak jud sa akong panumduman kay kadtong nag-away si Mama ug Papa. Wa ko kasabot man kay bata pa man ko. Tago mi ilawm sa bangko kay milamba man ug kalit ag pultahan. Ag nahinumduman ra jud nako kay ag kusahos nga gitusok sa alambre nga gibitay sa kusina dapit sa flourescent ug ang gisulti ni Papa (crying) "Grabe jud ka, Boss. Salig lang ka kay ingani ka nako ka-pinangga! Lab kaayo ka nako Boss!" (pinasingka dang bakho)(di ko sure if exact ba nga words pero murag ingana.) Ug kadtong nangaligo mig sapa. April to, bakasyon. Patitit mis bakilid. Ga-picnic mi. Yey! Ug sa dihang mibunok ang uwan ug midugdog ug mikilat. Hadlok gamay.hehe Hinay-hinay mi aginud, duko-duko para di maigo sa kilat. Tap-ong sa baba kay di pwede mongisi kay masuko si Papa, bitaw, kay dakpon kuno sa kilat. Magsige panguros kada dugdog ug liti. Nahumod mi tanan. Pero na-uga ra man pod mi pag-uli sa bay.
Francis: My childhood...With Papa, di ko kalimot sa "BAKUS!". It reflects
who I am now, hehe. With Mama, the time nga gibunalan ko "USA KA BUGKOS SA SILHIG TUKOG". Actually, hindi ako nag-iisa...Te Geegile & Te Ayeth pod then naglumba mi ihap sa among labod (badlungon man).
Fraulin: Adtong father's day, nanglibre si Papa, haha! Naniudto mi sa Jollibee unya nag-snacks sa Chowking, haha!
5.Is Mama a romantic wife? How can you say so?
Fragile: Yes -maybe not as much as Papa but she is. How can I say so? At times that we are together, she would say, "Nindut siguro ni Papa ni day no?" "Ka Papa day?"
Ug siyempre...kinsay makalimot sa loveletter nila nga tinaguan unya nabasahan nato?wahehehe..mga hilabtanon...
Frailyn: In a way she is. Yuna pa, unsa diay ng romantic? hehe She is sweet in her own way. Magbinata man pod na siya usahay, magparayg ni Papa. Yes, lud-on mi pero ganahan tali si Papa kay mosunod man bisan unsang sugo.ahehehe
Francis: Romantic pod! Magbinata pod. Mag-mila hahaha! Seeing them both sweet and tickling each other, then hear them laugh...that seems romantic for me.
Fraulin: Mama- romantic wife. She makes hilot Papa usahay. haha!
6.Is Papa a romantic husband? How can you say so?
Fragile: Yezzzz! - Where could you find a husband who cooks, does the household chores, musaka sa kwarto unya hatagan ug kape si mama, all underwears ni mama Avon si Papa gapalit, ready magpaulipon ug naay magmila nga nasakit...basta...you will really see how much he loves her.
Frailyn: Yes. In his own way. Di man jud na siya vocal. Pero makita sa iyang actions gi-unsa niya pag-care si Mama. Sama sa pagpa-ulipon.hahaha ka-romantic ana ah! Kinsay laki andam magpaulipon beh?
Francis: Romantic mo lang! magparayg mn nah siya then magsungog2, lami kumoton hehe!
Fraulin: Papa- romantic husband. Because he gave Mama a ring last April 27 (25th civil wedding anniversary)
7.Was there a time they quarreled?
Fragile: My gulay...oo naman! and as Papa said: "Mga lamas man na sa kinabuhi day.."
Frailyn: Kinsa may gagama aning pangutanaha? Kinsa man kunoy couple nga di mag-away beh?
Francis: Ahmmmm...yupz!
Fraulin: Yeah..
8.How many times? What's the reason for it?
Fragile: Once...Once a week...hahahaha...I dont know... I don't count... All I know is it feels too much discomfort for the whole family if dako na nga away and it brings much relief if makit-an na sila nga nagkiss..wahehehe ( maghinunghungay na lang tawn ang mga anak...te, nag-uli na sila, kita ko ni kiss mn pag-abot, wahehehehe) Reasons for the away? Si Mama nangutang, si Papa masuko...si Mama manghinlo unya mawa ang mga gamit, si Papa mahubog unya dili na kahinumdom, si Papa dugay nauli ug uban pang mga butang nga di ko kahinumdom. Pwede mo add ug info? unforgettable away for me is kadto bata pa mi.. Gisumbag ni Papa ag bungbong (tungod sa unlan???),nasingkahan ni Papa si Mama - si Mama didto na ila Ma Josie giapas... ahehehe..gubot pas lukot kay normal ra daw nila papa ng high pitch...di daw to singka..okkkk
Frailyn: Kuhaa ng how. Many times jud. Kalain-lain man nga reasons. Misunderstandings kasagaran. Ngana man jud tali na.
Francis: Di maihap! hehe! Misunderstandings, misheard, and mischiefs.
Fraulin: Daghan na tali, ginagmay lang. MU- misunderstanding.
9.What makes Mama happy?
Fragile: Kanang maibtan ug patay nga buhok hangtod makatog ( kinsay movolunteer?) hehehe..si Ayen... Bitaw, I think when she feels things are okay...I mean, hilom nga life, complete family, being able to provide things para sa mga anak, way away...dili stressed. Hapi siya sa achievements kay mao man iya passion - work. Dayon proud Mama..lipay ayo siya mangestorya bahin sa mga achievements sa mga buotang anak ( ang nawng sa mga anak: Ma oi!..hehehe) jewels of her life
Frailyn: Jao-li? Maxi-peel? Chin-san-su? hehe bitaw, fulfillment. She isn't just a wife and a mother, she's also a public servant. And she always do things with all her heart. When she does more than she can actually do, happy siya.
Francis: Simple gifts, smiles, and of course "Fragile, Frailyn, Francis, and Fraulin".
Fraulin: Kanang manguli sila Te Geegile ug Te Ayeth, it makes them very happy.
10.What makes Papa happy?
Fragile: Kanang hingukuan ni ayen iya tiil dayon simhuton ang nangakuha (dungan tawn tanan ug "EEEEWWWW!") hahahaha..looy lang si Ayen. Hapi si Papa sa iya mga orchids (nga angkonon ni Mama nga siya gatanom..hekhek), sa mga alagang miming at dogie, pati piggy, hapi siya kon sington cya: example, mangita jud ug ayohon nga guba...mamubo sa gawas hantud init, manghagbas..hehehehe basta.... I can say he is hapi ana nga moments...ug labi na ug naay nakaprepare nga snacks..bahawwwww
Frailyn: Vroom-vroom? hehe Bitaw noh.. unsa kaha noh.. Unsa man Pa? Since childhood Papa had always exerted his efforts fulfilling our wishes. He never shared his desire on something particular. Dili man gani mokaon ug cake bisan lami kaayo nga cake. Masuko pa jud ug balik-balikon ug pangutana. "Di ka mokaon ug cake, Pa?" (Unahon jud bitaw ang 'Di') "Di lagi! Balik-balik pangutana. Kan-a na ninyo." Mao diay to, ipalabon ra namo. hehe I think that's what makes him happy-- giving all that he has just to make us all happy.
Francis: Simple gifts, smiles, and of course "Fragile, Frailyn, Francis, and Fraulin".
Fraulin: Kanang manguli sila Te Geegile ug Te Ayeth, that makes them very happy.

Fragile: If naay family conflict, if naa problema si Ma Josie or si Lola Young, if naa problem sa school.

13.When was the last time you heard them laugh?

Fragile: Capital Y-E-S!
Frailyn: Oo. Yes. Ja. Oui. Unsa pa?
Francis: Very much!
Fraulin: YES!
19.State your reason.
Fragile: I never wished having another set of parents because if ever i'd be given the chance to choose my parents, i would still have them as my choice. If i'd choose my family, i'd still choose this family...the home i have loved and will love forever...and it's because they are the parents... because they gave us a home, because they made us feel secured and that we belong, becoz they taught us how to love unselfishly, without boundary even if it would mean sacrificing own happiness...because they are themeselves and because they are meant to be forever... because God gave them to us.
Frailyn: Because I could not imagine myself being some other parents' daughter and being someone else's sister. And because I have been sheltered and secured and very much loved during the past 23 years of my existence and counting. :) They are the reason I've come to understand LOVE in it's most painful yet most beautiful side.
Francis: First, i wouldn't be here without them. Second, i owe my life to them and they've given me such loving siblings, and third, because they're the best gift God has given to me.
Fraulin: They are both good looking. Liwat kaayo ko!
20.What do you think is the best gift you can give to them?
Fragile: Sana church wedding - i wish i could give them that..i want to see them in the altar, exchange vows at the same church they wed 25 years ago..sana with their orig ninangs and ninongs din... and kami part sa entourage...whew!
Frailyn: Except from love? Trip around the world! With the four of us.hehe (kinahanglan jud mi mokuyog!)
Francis: House & lot lang siguro, hehe! Love, respect, and presence.
Fraulin: hmm ESCAPADE, wahaha!
21.Do you know their theme song?
Fragile: BATO SA BUHANGIN. I just remembered that time nga nagvideoke mi unya ingon si Papa mao daw ila theme song..abi ko tinood sauna tong Please relaese me, ahehe I just don't get the gist of bato and buhangin...dili ba sila pwede??? i-explain daw. Basta the lyrics of the song and the song itself and the melody made me cry too much here in Riyadh...emotional
Frailyn: Release Me? hehehe bitaw, Bato sa Buhangin. Papa man gud, ug mokanta sa videoke sauna i-dedicate man niya ni Mama ng Release Me. Lain baya ug lyrics.
Francis: Wa ko kahibaw man. Pero ug himuan nako sila, 'Nobody' by Wondergirls ako pili-on...hekz!
Fraulin: Skyline Pigeon tali or Pearl Harbor. haha! wa man ko kahibaw.
22. What would you do to make them happy?
Fragile: I hope i became the lady they expected me to be, the daughter, the eldest sister they wanted me to be... I hope i did not fail them...i would do anything...name it..if it's for their happiness.
Frailyn: Everything that I can possibly do. Everything in my own reach.
Francis: Stay with them and strive hard on what I could do.
Fraulin: Magtarong ug eskwela, hehe
23.Picture them out 25 years from now.
Fragile: With God's help and guidance: mao ni cya ako mapicture: sa 2034, si Papa 74 yrs old, c mama 81 yrs old na pohon!!!!!hehe..di ko ka-imagine..feeling nako, mas milaon jud si mama dayon si papa ready to be there...si mama kay ganahan mn paraygan anang serbis ni papa...si papa pod mao iya kalipay. 25 years from now, naa na family ila mga anak pohon pohon (ka-imagine ka yeth?my gulay) unya cla, naa sa bay ghapon pero dili boring kay paduol ra mn mi. dayon si papa, naa ghapon alaga iring..apil c sox...c mama, tig-speech pa talis sa eskwelahan..basta..i wish for them good long life...full of love and free from much stress..free from much worries. I just wish to see them sitting by the porch, by the sala, or in the bedroom...smiling and worry-free....they can do whatever they want and go wherever they want..basta happy lang sila unya walay sakit. basta....
Frailyn: Happy. Holding each other's hand in front of a priest. Yes, I can see them getting married again in 25 years. ;)
Francis: Magpondo na sila sa bay doing same routines. So, expect Mama nga magsige ligad sa sala, mag-videoke and Papa magsige paminaw sa iyang music ug magtrapo tae sa miming (hehe)
Fraulin: Mobalik sila sa ilang pagka-baby, gamay buhok ug ngepz, haha!
24.What do you think is the key to a lasting relationship?
Fragile: 1) Give and take 2) Never shout at the same time 3) Patience and understanding 4) Always fix chaos, the earlier the better 5) Talk, smile and have some fun once in a while 6) Work is work and home is home 7) Have time for each other - it's the best u cud give for the one u love 8) Share problems and try solving them together 9) LOVE - the main ingredient! 10) Pray always and together.
Frailyn: I wanted to say 'continuous sacrifice' but sacrifice done whole-heartedly isn't sacrifice anymore. So, it's LOVE. I won't say continuous because that would be (for me) redundancy. Just unconditional, selfless, pure and deeply profound LOVE. And everything else will fall perfectly into place.
Francis: Communication is the key; it involves both talking honestly and listening attentively. It also means finding a way to air difficulties, frustration, and needs however difficult this may be. And of course, it means listening to and respecting your partner's thoughts.
Fraulin: LOVE. Nothing binds two people but love. haha! labyu!
25.What's your message for them?
Fragile: Dearest Papa Dodong and Mama Didith,
HAPPY 25th year wedding anniversary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!what more could I say but Thank you Lord...Thank you nga Imong gitagbo ang dalan ni Flaviano Macul ug Virginia Rosagaran alyas Dodong ug Didith. I know, dili sayon ang inyong giagian ninyo adtong uyab pa mo, daghan sad mga balakid...and doubts --- but you managed to survived it all ---til now ---it has been more than 25 years since Love came, knocked, and grown which made your hearts as one. Thank you Lord kay ug wa cla, wa sad roy fragile, frailyn, francis ug fraulin. fruits of love and sacrifice. There have been too many challenges along the way coz it's never easy to raise a family. Dili lalim magtukod ug pamilya. You managed to build not only a house but a home...and of course, we had a very colorful childhood. Life was not perfect, we are not rich, but we are happy. You taught us to be good children and eventually responsible adults. We may not have it all but we are striving for that. There are still lots of things to be done and as eldest ako na paningkamutan. Daghan ko dreams para sa atong family, daghan pa kaayo. With God's help...we will endure all these. Someday...we will all reap the fruits of the labor of love. Love kaayo mo namo maong stay strong against all kinds of temptations. Let love reign. Di ta padaog sa problema. We can do this. I love you both so much.... Love you pa! Love You Ma! You have been my inspiration so stay strong both of you. Stay inlove. It's what our family is built of so never let go any of the pillars. We are all relying on the love we are getting from you. We love you much... Take good care always and dili magpabadlong..ok...eat and rest...God be with us always!!!
Love, Geegile pagpag
Frailyn: Dearest Mama Didith and Papa Dodge,
Happy 25th anniversary! A week ago, I kept singing
"Kay hirap unawain bawat damdamin,
Pangakong magmahal hanggang libing,
Sa langit, may tagpuan din
At doon hihintayin
Itong bato sa buhangin.." And I'd end up weeping. Mingaw man gud kaayo. Ako gunitan akong dughan kay murag mahagbong akong heart. Usahay kay maka-a gani kog punit kay kaingon kog nahagbong na jud. I kept on thinking what I can possibly do to make this day special. I wanted to go home and celebrate with you. But it's one of the impossible things I can't possibly do. So I just whispered in my heart the things I wanted you to know and I know you'll get the message faster than any FedEx, DHL or post can.
Thank you Ma, Thank you Pa. I can never thank you enough for being the best parents any child would be grateful to have. Thank you for loving each other. And thank you for this very day you vowed to love each other for the rest of your lives. 25 years ago, two hearts vowed to love forever-- hearts to ninyo Ma, Pa. 25 years later, you gained four more hearts to love you until forever--hearts na namo.hehe We love you so much. Di matugkad. Lawom pas tabay nila Nang Dading.hehe Thank you so much for loving us. That made us love in return. The basic foundation of our being. Salamat kaayo Ma, Pa...I miss you so much. I miss US. And I keep on looking forward to that day that we will be together once again. Managkot dayon ta sa grotto. :)
Always, Bakyeth
Francis: To Papa: Though sometimes I make you mad but I respect you. Though you're not perfect but you'll always be th best. I'll always be ur son and you'll always be my father and no one can change that. I love you, Pa!
To Mama: I may not be that of a good son to you but I do always love you. You may not be perfect but I give you my full respect. Your loving guidance made me grow and I love you more than you know.
Fraulin: Pa, Ma, I hope you'll stay strong. Konting tiis na lang,hehe. I pray that you'll continue being LOYAL to each other, I love yah!
2. What do you think is Papa's best feature?
Fragile: Affectionate - soft hearted bisan outwardly, iya i-show nga isog siya. More: he's very firm and high tempered but he always have that soft part(dili ma-explain man oi) basta...he may not want it showed but his kindness and love is always shown by his action
Frailyn: Ang bungot? hehe bitaw, ang iyang kabuotan. Way makatupong!
Francis: Papa is a good worker.
Fraulin: Ilong ranger!
3.What do you think is Mama's best feature?
Fragile: Epitome of sacrifice - she would not tell how much she has done and how much she is suffering...she has gone through a lot yet she still manages to look okay...
Frailyn: Iyang katahum? hahaha, o, mag-serious na lagi. Ang iyang pagka-sensitive. No need for words kay na-feel na niya.
Francis: Mama is a good observer.
Fraulin: Humpz, sa tiyan, haha!
4.What is your unforgettable experience with Mama and Papa?
Fragile: Pwede daghan? 1.)Picnic sa sapa nga kami tanan. Gagmay pa mi dayon kami jud tanan, patitit sa bakilid dayon laba sila Papa ug Mama, kami langoy-langoy, kaon-kaon biscuit nga pink nga ituslob sa sapa..hehehe ...Tungtong sa bato kon tugnawon, dayon tabang kuso-kuso bisan dili mao...samoksamok in other words but they tolerate it...and why can't I forget it? coz I almost drowned...hehehe 2.) Picnic gihapon sa sapa kami tanan Part2 - dagko nami. Sunday. Didto mi sa lawm nga dapit nanglaba...Sus kay miuwan mn ug kusog kaayo unya feeling namo hapit na mobaha..Nagdali mi ug waswas and dili mi kaagi sa bakilid ila Nang Dading kay dangog so didto mi agi sa highway sa sapa kami tanan gada ug planggana ug balde ....walking with matching likay-likay sa kilat nga kusog kaayo..hehehehe..who wud ever forget that scene? 3.) Picnic sa dagat sa Baclayon - dako na mi kaayo. hehe..bag-o ko abot gikan Negros. Di ko kalimot kay we were complete and first time nga nagpicnic nga kami ra.
Frailyn: Daghan man oi. Pero ag mitatak jud sa akong panumduman kay kadtong nag-away si Mama ug Papa. Wa ko kasabot man kay bata pa man ko. Tago mi ilawm sa bangko kay milamba man ug kalit ag pultahan. Ag nahinumduman ra jud nako kay ag kusahos nga gitusok sa alambre nga gibitay sa kusina dapit sa flourescent ug ang gisulti ni Papa (crying) "Grabe jud ka, Boss. Salig lang ka kay ingani ka nako ka-pinangga! Lab kaayo ka nako Boss!" (pinasingka dang bakho)(di ko sure if exact ba nga words pero murag ingana.) Ug kadtong nangaligo mig sapa. April to, bakasyon. Patitit mis bakilid. Ga-picnic mi. Yey! Ug sa dihang mibunok ang uwan ug midugdog ug mikilat. Hadlok gamay.hehe Hinay-hinay mi aginud, duko-duko para di maigo sa kilat. Tap-ong sa baba kay di pwede mongisi kay masuko si Papa, bitaw, kay dakpon kuno sa kilat. Magsige panguros kada dugdog ug liti. Nahumod mi tanan. Pero na-uga ra man pod mi pag-uli sa bay.
Francis: My childhood...With Papa, di ko kalimot sa "BAKUS!". It reflects
who I am now, hehe. With Mama, the time nga gibunalan ko "USA KA BUGKOS SA SILHIG TUKOG". Actually, hindi ako nag-iisa...Te Geegile & Te Ayeth pod then naglumba mi ihap sa among labod (badlungon man).
Fraulin: Adtong father's day, nanglibre si Papa, haha! Naniudto mi sa Jollibee unya nag-snacks sa Chowking, haha!
5.Is Mama a romantic wife? How can you say so?
Fragile: Yes -maybe not as much as Papa but she is. How can I say so? At times that we are together, she would say, "Nindut siguro ni Papa ni day no?" "Ka Papa day?"
Ug siyempre...kinsay makalimot sa loveletter nila nga tinaguan unya nabasahan nato?wahehehe..mga hilabtanon...
Frailyn: In a way she is. Yuna pa, unsa diay ng romantic? hehe She is sweet in her own way. Magbinata man pod na siya usahay, magparayg ni Papa. Yes, lud-on mi pero ganahan tali si Papa kay mosunod man bisan unsang sugo.ahehehe
Francis: Romantic pod! Magbinata pod. Mag-mila hahaha! Seeing them both sweet and tickling each other, then hear them laugh...that seems romantic for me.
Fraulin: Mama- romantic wife. She makes hilot Papa usahay. haha!
6.Is Papa a romantic husband? How can you say so?
Fragile: Yezzzz! - Where could you find a husband who cooks, does the household chores, musaka sa kwarto unya hatagan ug kape si mama, all underwears ni mama Avon si Papa gapalit, ready magpaulipon ug naay magmila nga nasakit...basta...you will really see how much he loves her.
Frailyn: Yes. In his own way. Di man jud na siya vocal. Pero makita sa iyang actions gi-unsa niya pag-care si Mama. Sama sa pagpa-ulipon.hahaha ka-romantic ana ah! Kinsay laki andam magpaulipon beh?
Francis: Romantic mo lang! magparayg mn nah siya then magsungog2, lami kumoton hehe!
Fraulin: Papa- romantic husband. Because he gave Mama a ring last April 27 (25th civil wedding anniversary)
7.Was there a time they quarreled?
Fragile: My gulay...oo naman! and as Papa said: "Mga lamas man na sa kinabuhi day.."
Frailyn: Kinsa may gagama aning pangutanaha? Kinsa man kunoy couple nga di mag-away beh?
Francis: Ahmmmm...yupz!
Fraulin: Yeah..
8.How many times? What's the reason for it?
Fragile: Once...Once a week...hahahaha...I dont know... I don't count... All I know is it feels too much discomfort for the whole family if dako na nga away and it brings much relief if makit-an na sila nga nagkiss..wahehehe ( maghinunghungay na lang tawn ang mga anak...te, nag-uli na sila, kita ko ni kiss mn pag-abot, wahehehehe) Reasons for the away? Si Mama nangutang, si Papa masuko...si Mama manghinlo unya mawa ang mga gamit, si Papa mahubog unya dili na kahinumdom, si Papa dugay nauli ug uban pang mga butang nga di ko kahinumdom. Pwede mo add ug info? unforgettable away for me is kadto bata pa mi.. Gisumbag ni Papa ag bungbong (tungod sa unlan???),nasingkahan ni Papa si Mama - si Mama didto na ila Ma Josie giapas... ahehehe..gubot pas lukot kay normal ra daw nila papa ng high pitch...di daw to singka..okkkk
Frailyn: Kuhaa ng how. Many times jud. Kalain-lain man nga reasons. Misunderstandings kasagaran. Ngana man jud tali na.
Francis: Di maihap! hehe! Misunderstandings, misheard, and mischiefs.
Fraulin: Daghan na tali, ginagmay lang. MU- misunderstanding.
9.What makes Mama happy?
Fragile: Kanang maibtan ug patay nga buhok hangtod makatog ( kinsay movolunteer?) hehehe..si Ayen... Bitaw, I think when she feels things are okay...I mean, hilom nga life, complete family, being able to provide things para sa mga anak, way away...dili stressed. Hapi siya sa achievements kay mao man iya passion - work. Dayon proud Mama..lipay ayo siya mangestorya bahin sa mga achievements sa mga buotang anak ( ang nawng sa mga anak: Ma oi!..hehehe) jewels of her life
Frailyn: Jao-li? Maxi-peel? Chin-san-su? hehe bitaw, fulfillment. She isn't just a wife and a mother, she's also a public servant. And she always do things with all her heart. When she does more than she can actually do, happy siya.
Francis: Simple gifts, smiles, and of course "Fragile, Frailyn, Francis, and Fraulin".
Fraulin: Kanang manguli sila Te Geegile ug Te Ayeth, it makes them very happy.
10.What makes Papa happy?
Fragile: Kanang hingukuan ni ayen iya tiil dayon simhuton ang nangakuha (dungan tawn tanan ug "EEEEWWWW!") hahahaha..looy lang si Ayen. Hapi si Papa sa iya mga orchids (nga angkonon ni Mama nga siya gatanom..hekhek), sa mga alagang miming at dogie, pati piggy, hapi siya kon sington cya: example, mangita jud ug ayohon nga guba...mamubo sa gawas hantud init, manghagbas..hehehehe basta.... I can say he is hapi ana nga moments...ug labi na ug naay nakaprepare nga snacks..bahawwwww
Frailyn: Vroom-vroom? hehe Bitaw noh.. unsa kaha noh.. Unsa man Pa? Since childhood Papa had always exerted his efforts fulfilling our wishes. He never shared his desire on something particular. Dili man gani mokaon ug cake bisan lami kaayo nga cake. Masuko pa jud ug balik-balikon ug pangutana. "Di ka mokaon ug cake, Pa?" (Unahon jud bitaw ang 'Di') "Di lagi! Balik-balik pangutana. Kan-a na ninyo." Mao diay to, ipalabon ra namo. hehe I think that's what makes him happy-- giving all that he has just to make us all happy.
Francis: Simple gifts, smiles, and of course "Fragile, Frailyn, Francis, and Fraulin".
Fraulin: Kanang manguli sila Te Geegile ug Te Ayeth, that makes them very happy.
11. What makes Mama sad?
Fragile: If naay family conflict, if naa problema si Ma Josie or si Lola Young, if naa problem sa school.
Frailyn: If pas-an niya ang kalibutan.ehehe Ug kanang sekreto nga gusto na niya itug-an, mahadlok lang siya.
Francis: Well... Every parent miss their children and that's what makes them sad.
Fraulin: kamingaw. because two of us are far away.
12. What makes Papa sad?
Fragile: Problema sad nga di niya isulti.
Frailyn: If mamatay iyang tanom. hehe Ug dishonor. Unsa man na? basta gud mao na.
Francis: Well...every parent miss their children and that's what makes them sad.
Fraulin: kamingaw. because two of us are far away.
13.When was the last time you heard them laugh?
Fragile: Sa kwarto, early AM, nag-unot-unot sa katre...ambot unsa ila gikataw-an...it's just nice to see them smiling early in the morning.
Frailyn: Pagpanawag nako.. Magsige man sila katawa.
Francis: Everytime I'm home, there's always a time to laugh, but of course nothing compares our 6 loud laughters at home!
Fraulin: ganina. haha
14.When was the last time you saw them cry?
Fragile: Saw them cry both paglarga ni ayeth ug nako.. Si Mama - kadto confrontation between life and death..hehehe..kadto kita niya ako siya gisort of ______. pinakalast time jud is pagpadong nako larga... I saw her cry but not as much as she cried when didto mi sa Cebu..kadto milarga si Ayeth..kita man jud ko gud...hahahaha..nasuya! bitaw...i saw her very sad eyes... Unya si Papa - same pod...paglarga nko...unja, wa ko khbaw how was it. Pero paglarga gihapon ni Ayeth..mas nakit-an nako siya mihilak ug tinood... Pero ang di ko kalimot is kadto mama said papa cried when i went to college. Wa ko kita..Pero di pod ko ka-imagine..hehehehe
Frailyn: Aw, dugay ra jud. Ni mama, kadtong before ko milarga. If 'heard' pa na, last nako nga tawag mi-cry siya. Mi-cry sad ko. Unya kay 'saw' man. Kadto didto mi sa kwarto. Ate Geegile best supporting actress. Mama best actress, si Ayen background (kay di man motingog) bitaw, best child actress.hehe ug ako ang dakilang extra. wakekek Ganahan ra gud pod mi magdrama. ahehe Si Papa, kadtong didto sa abuhan. Di ko kalimot adto. Mihilak siya kay--eng eng eng di ko magsaba. Okay man kuno ng mohilak.. Kay para mahugasan atong kalag. (serious na ba)
Francis: Hmmm? the time nadisgrace ko.
Fraulin: hmmm, di ko maalala. maybe itago lang nila.
15. Unforgettable quote from Mama:
Fragile: "Patoo lagi mo! ma-slide gani mo! Maghuwat pa mo matinood ako giingon? (dayon maslide..) qoute ba ni??? ; "Hala oi...looya mn...(with matching facial expression) kon mgtan-aw ug news or telserye & "Naunsa na day/ dong?" (after sleeping off while watching salida) hehehe..way klaro ani ako answer oi
Frailyn: "Kung mingawon ka nako, just remember the times nga naglagot ka nako."
Francis: "Unsaon man kung mag-amping ka unya ang uban dili?"
Fraulin: "Boss, load please, 60 lang." haha!
16. Unforgettable quote from Papa:
Fragile: "Dili lagi butanganan ug tiil ang unlan Gile!"; "Panundog ra gud mo ni Mama Josie...ing-ana ba gud ng igsoon? " & "Magbinootan jud..i-asa ra mn ng uyab-uyab ug makahuman na...(iasa daw yeth?hahahaha) lisud man ihuna-huna oi..naa mn pero di ma-recall

Frailyn: Videoke.
Francis: Tan-aw tv...kay ug single nga pastime, si Mama matug then si Papa maminaw sa iyang Latin music. hehe!
Fraulin: Tan-aw salida. dabidi.
18.Are you happy they are your parents?
Fragile: Capital Y-E-S!
Frailyn: Oo. Yes. Ja. Oui. Unsa pa?
Francis: Very much!
Fraulin: YES!
19.State your reason.
Fragile: I never wished having another set of parents because if ever i'd be given the chance to choose my parents, i would still have them as my choice. If i'd choose my family, i'd still choose this family...the home i have loved and will love forever...and it's because they are the parents... because they gave us a home, because they made us feel secured and that we belong, becoz they taught us how to love unselfishly, without boundary even if it would mean sacrificing own happiness...because they are themeselves and because they are meant to be forever... because God gave them to us.
Frailyn: Because I could not imagine myself being some other parents' daughter and being someone else's sister. And because I have been sheltered and secured and very much loved during the past 23 years of my existence and counting. :) They are the reason I've come to understand LOVE in it's most painful yet most beautiful side.
Francis: First, i wouldn't be here without them. Second, i owe my life to them and they've given me such loving siblings, and third, because they're the best gift God has given to me.
Fraulin: They are both good looking. Liwat kaayo ko!
20.What do you think is the best gift you can give to them?
Fragile: Sana church wedding - i wish i could give them that..i want to see them in the altar, exchange vows at the same church they wed 25 years ago..sana with their orig ninangs and ninongs din... and kami part sa entourage...whew!
Frailyn: Except from love? Trip around the world! With the four of us.hehe (kinahanglan jud mi mokuyog!)
Francis: House & lot lang siguro, hehe! Love, respect, and presence.
Fraulin: hmm ESCAPADE, wahaha!
21.Do you know their theme song?
Fragile: BATO SA BUHANGIN. I just remembered that time nga nagvideoke mi unya ingon si Papa mao daw ila theme song..abi ko tinood sauna tong Please relaese me, ahehe I just don't get the gist of bato and buhangin...dili ba sila pwede??? i-explain daw. Basta the lyrics of the song and the song itself and the melody made me cry too much here in Riyadh...emotional
Frailyn: Release Me? hehehe bitaw, Bato sa Buhangin. Papa man gud, ug mokanta sa videoke sauna i-dedicate man niya ni Mama ng Release Me. Lain baya ug lyrics.
Francis: Wa ko kahibaw man. Pero ug himuan nako sila, 'Nobody' by Wondergirls ako pili-on...hekz!
Fraulin: Skyline Pigeon tali or Pearl Harbor. haha! wa man ko kahibaw.
22. What would you do to make them happy?
Fragile: I hope i became the lady they expected me to be, the daughter, the eldest sister they wanted me to be... I hope i did not fail them...i would do anything...name it..if it's for their happiness.
Frailyn: Everything that I can possibly do. Everything in my own reach.
Francis: Stay with them and strive hard on what I could do.
Fraulin: Magtarong ug eskwela, hehe
23.Picture them out 25 years from now.
Fragile: With God's help and guidance: mao ni cya ako mapicture: sa 2034, si Papa 74 yrs old, c mama 81 yrs old na pohon!!!!!hehe..di ko ka-imagine..feeling nako, mas milaon jud si mama dayon si papa ready to be there...si mama kay ganahan mn paraygan anang serbis ni papa...si papa pod mao iya kalipay. 25 years from now, naa na family ila mga anak pohon pohon (ka-imagine ka yeth?my gulay) unya cla, naa sa bay ghapon pero dili boring kay paduol ra mn mi. dayon si papa, naa ghapon alaga iring..apil c sox...c mama, tig-speech pa talis sa eskwelahan..basta..i wish for them good long life...full of love and free from much stress..free from much worries. I just wish to see them sitting by the porch, by the sala, or in the bedroom...smiling and worry-free....they can do whatever they want and go wherever they want..basta happy lang sila unya walay sakit. basta....
Frailyn: Happy. Holding each other's hand in front of a priest. Yes, I can see them getting married again in 25 years. ;)
Francis: Magpondo na sila sa bay doing same routines. So, expect Mama nga magsige ligad sa sala, mag-videoke and Papa magsige paminaw sa iyang music ug magtrapo tae sa miming (hehe)
Fraulin: Mobalik sila sa ilang pagka-baby, gamay buhok ug ngepz, haha!
24.What do you think is the key to a lasting relationship?
Fragile: 1) Give and take 2) Never shout at the same time 3) Patience and understanding 4) Always fix chaos, the earlier the better 5) Talk, smile and have some fun once in a while 6) Work is work and home is home 7) Have time for each other - it's the best u cud give for the one u love 8) Share problems and try solving them together 9) LOVE - the main ingredient! 10) Pray always and together.
Frailyn: I wanted to say 'continuous sacrifice' but sacrifice done whole-heartedly isn't sacrifice anymore. So, it's LOVE. I won't say continuous because that would be (for me) redundancy. Just unconditional, selfless, pure and deeply profound LOVE. And everything else will fall perfectly into place.
Francis: Communication is the key; it involves both talking honestly and listening attentively. It also means finding a way to air difficulties, frustration, and needs however difficult this may be. And of course, it means listening to and respecting your partner's thoughts.
Fraulin: LOVE. Nothing binds two people but love. haha! labyu!
25.What's your message for them?
Fragile: Dearest Papa Dodong and Mama Didith,
HAPPY 25th year wedding anniversary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!what more could I say but Thank you Lord...Thank you nga Imong gitagbo ang dalan ni Flaviano Macul ug Virginia Rosagaran alyas Dodong ug Didith.

Thank you Lord kay ug wa cla, wa sad roy fragile, frailyn, francis ug fraulin. fruits of love and sacrifice. There have been too many challenges along the way coz it's never easy to raise a family. Dili lalim magtukod ug pamilya. You managed to build not only a house but a home...and of course, we had a very colorful childhood. Life was not perfect, we are not rich, but we are happy. You taught us to be good children and eventually responsible adults. We may not have it all but we are striving for that. There are still lots of things to be done and as eldest ako na paningkamutan. Daghan ko dreams para sa atong family, daghan pa kaayo. With God's help...we will endure all these. Someday...we will all reap the fruits of the labor of love.
