Our story began when we met online (lol) sometime November 2016, simple chatting, exchanging numbers. Then we finally meet up at Chillis West Covina, November 30, 2016, Fernando drove for 3 hours. We lost communication for couple of months, I felt that time, it will not work coz he is not Filipino. One night, he suddenly texted me saying that he is in front of our apartment. Since that night, we constantly seeing each other, go places that I’ve never been, and sometimes with my parents too, eat out, try new food, working in our differences . The first time I introduced Fernando to my parents is our trip to Las Vegas with Uncle Henry (crazy). The 1st time Fernando introduced me to his family is Lilian’s (his niece) birthday. Little by little both of us are learning, experiencing, getting used to our different cultures. March 2018, we just decided to try to have a baby, after 6 months our princess was born. From the day she was born and before she turned 1 that journey makes us more stronger individually and more as a couple too. After Ellie Violet turned 1, we had a big fight but we choose to stay together and make this work for our princess. And now after 7 years, as we entering our new chapter, our inspiration is our princess, to give her a whole, happy, and a grateful family.
