I was looking forward for today to be such a busy day for me. I already sorted all the baby clothes and stuffs that needs to be washed and folded to be ready in case the baby will decide for an early appearance. I wasn’t expecting nor hoping for a premature delivery, but I just want to be ready. Like my sister and BIL who are moving this weekend, Donald and I are also playing some wild idea on moving back to my hometown when Ella’s classes ends. That will be this March and we are crossing our fingers that we can make it as early as possible before I gave birth which will be on the 1st week of April. That’s just a plan, not yet final and so we are not disclosing this to Tatang and Inang or any other members of the church yet. As much as we wanted to stay here, it seems like it keeps on getting harder and harder for us to live very far from family and relatives. Every time we go home to my hometown, we were so excited even just the thought of it yet we are dragging our feet when it’s time to leave for home. Especially now that Ella is almost 6, she really knows where she wanted us to settle. Donald too has his heart to my hometown (did I not tell you about that before?) and he keeps on bugging me that Kabacan is where we should be, where we should raise our kids and where we would grow old. For months, I am convincing myself that Trento is a place for us but now I am slowly accepting the fact that Donald was right all along. So in case God will bless our plan on moving, I am ready. I have already started packing stuffs last month and Donald was saying it’s a “premonition”. 
We do plan on staying here for good when we first get in here….but then for some reasons, I have kept all the original boxes of stuffs like desktop, TV, wsahing machine and the fridge as if I am expecting that sooner or later we will use it for another big move. We now have some plans on building a itsy bitsy house at my mother’s lot and hopefully if we finally have a place we call our home….we could stay there forever.
What makes me feel so tired of living here is that the distance from where we were right now to Donald’s family and my sisters in Davao, then to my relatives in Kabacan and to make it worst, from Daddy who is now in his little farm in Pagadian City is like lightyears away. Hopefully tomorrow I could muster some energy to get my hands on the stuffs I plan to do.
