Yellow house

From Summer's school, on our way to Karcraft, we passed by Tita Cory's house along Times St.
This is how well-loved she and her family is. Still, a lot of people visit her house and brings her anything to say a prayer for her.

Thank you!

President Cory Aquino died on the first Saturday of August, Feast of Immaculate Heart of Mary and the death month of her beloved Ninoy.

She was laid to rest at Manila Memorial. As expected, many came to pay their last respect and attended her funeral. Some even walked all the way from Manila Cathedral to the Manila Memorial.

It was declared a special non-working holiday and we just stayed at home and watched the funeral on TV. The mass started at 9am.

I was preparing for Winter's birthday party and went to SM to buy additional materials for the invitation card. On our way home, Omar went around SM to check if we can take a peek at the funeral cortege. Surprisingly, the service road was open to traffic and we were able to park with a nice view. So we waited until the cortege passed our way. Summer was making the L sign and shouting Laban, while asking me why she have to do it. She was even instructing Omar to do the same. I just told her that when she go to big school and take up history, she will remember the day we brought her there.People were so energetic and the feeling of pride was so powerful.

Thank you Tita Cory!
