We Are Excited For Their Coming

Yesterday , our daughter called her father over the phone while in his work . He told me just this morning about it . Our daughter told him that when she comes for a vacation on May 9-16 , her boyfriend would also be coming over . Last summer , he also came with our daughter for a week and left our daughter to still have the rest of the vacation time with us . We were happy having him around the house because we genuinely like him for our daughter . So , when the in-laws comes home from another province , this Friday evening , we will be planning what foods to cook when they will be coming over. We want them to have a taste of the foods they seldom get to eat in Manila . I guess , everyone of us is excited when a guest we like, is coming over .

@hereandthere Our daughter knows that . They went to Donsol for Butanding the last time they were here in addition to visiting the nice places here . I bet they will be going to Sorsogon to watch that place, lake wherein there are lots of fireflies at night .

@ridingbet You are right , they still have to enjoy their single blessedness and enjoy their salaries when they become a doctor already . So, getting married isn't in their bucket list yet . Though , i want to have a grandchild already .

Well, I dont know how would I react to that when my baby girl has grown up and informs us that she is bringing her boyfriend home. No, not anything else, but right now, I am very possessive and will feel jealous of them (these guests). But maybe my feelings will change for good as she grows up. For the guests, I dont think I appreciate too many of them who arrive and play their cards.

I actually cried when she told us about her boyfriend when she was in third year college . But she promised to finish her studies and would still become a doctor (another 5 years that time ) . So, now we really like the guy because we have been with him too whenever we go to Manila to visit our daughter . He is kind and responsible .

@SIMPLYD I can understand this "I actually cried when she told us about ..." better now. Earlier, I might have had lighter comments for that. But now that I am a dad, I feel and understand it better. But then, that is how things are and how life is. I feel happy reading this - He is kind and responsible . - as that is what all parents would want. The spouse of our child, should be that way. Is he a doctor too?

@thesids They are both soon to be doctors . Just enjoy each stage of your daughter . And when the time comes when she will be having a boyfriend , just don't be too strict though .

@LadyDuck We feel happy when the boyfriends of our beloved daughter or nieces is to our liking . We get protective of those girls that's why . But maybe it will also be the same for the boys , but not much .

In just over a month you will get to spend some time with your daughter. If your family is spread out, you don't see each other as often.
