It was testing time for our new gateway md7801u notebook. I was so tempted to unbox it and play with it soon as Dad came home, but I waited for the rest of the family because I know they were just as excited and I didn’t want to spoil the fun. I know it’s cheesy but it’s just more exciting that way. We have learned to share our happiness and it works great for us, it’s sort of like a celebration of blessings, even little things like this new techie gadget that daddy Joey has bought us. You see, we’ve been tightening our belts for the past year and have learned to be content with what we have and not think too much about what we can’t have And having this one major gift from dad is just really awesome. It’s not just for me but for everyone, even for dad himself. He said he has already tested the gadget but he was just excited as all of us. The excitement was making me feel uneasy, how I wanted to drag time  or make it run faster so that we can unbox our gift. I text-ed my brothers and told them about it and they couldn’t wait to come home.

Everyone was home and we already had a sumptuous dinner courtesy of mom Chloe and Abuela Anna. We all settled at the sala as if unboxing a present from santa. You can see and feel the excitement. JR was the one who unboxed the gift from dad and it’s really nice! It’s not the usual small and pretty light laptop, rather it was regular in weight but very classic looking. Dad said he has chosen the said laptop with a not so small screen so playing and watching movies would still be a great experience. The specifications were awesome as expected. We all loved it so much we couldn’t help but hugs and thank dad. Everyone took turns in using it, and Miko was so busy installing and setting up the Internet wi-fi router so both PCs will have connection at home.

As expected Amari, Miko and Paolo were crazy about downloading games to their newly upgraded PC. I can’t describe the happiness that everyone felt during that moment. Even as simple as unboxing a new gift, when shared with everyone, can be such a magical and happy moment for a family. Right now, dad is playing with our new toy and exploring. I’m sure he’s just as excited, coz it’s been awhile since he had to let go of his own laptop. What more can I say? It’s a happy day!

]]> The Dizon Boys – Basti, JR, Miko, Paolo and little Iñigo. We are the guardians and knights of our princesses Amari and Andrea, our queens abuela Anna and mom Chloe, and of course loyal to our king-daddy Joey. We are not just bonded by blood but as well as friendship. Our favorite hobby, and one thing that we all have in common, is playing basketball. Whenever dad’s free, we always spend time to play basketball. I can’t wait for my son Iñigo to grow up so he could join the boys.

Being the eldest among my brothers, It is my duty to keep them safe, and to be a good example to them. At one point it seems that I may have failed, but I didn’t want them to see that as a mistake rather I explain it to them that they have a choice, and since they have seen the consequence of my choices, they might as well learn from them. Whenever one picks a fight with another I settle them immediately, and whenever one of the boys is being bullied, the enemies should watch out, because not just one but a pack of wolves will hunt them down.

So far, my younger brothers are becoming much better each day. Even Miko’s rebellious character seems to be fading slowly as he grows older. He is becoming more mature and I am very happy to see him that way. He seems to be listening to JR’s advise. Honestly, I think JR is the most mature among the four of us. I even run to him for advise coz he has so much wisdom and sense that I don’t have. Paolo is also looking up to miko being the closest age to him. They are almost always together though they have a little difference in character. Miko plays as Pao’s protector and at the same time, Pao helps Miko in controlling his temper, because Miko never does bad things in front of Pao. He plays big brother and a role model to Pao.
