Kuya Francis

Dear Francis,


You are 7 years & 11 months old as I write this. Your birthday on May 2 is coming soon, but it looks like we'll be spending it in quarantine (due to Covid-19 pandemic; you'll definitely remember this time in our lives so no need for me to explain further).

I still can't grasp the fact that my kids are growing up too fast.

When Mommy and Daddy found out that Baby No. 4 (Felicity) was going to be a girl, we were quite worried thinking that you'll be the only boy among your siblings. But then God answered our prayers right away and you are now Kuya of the Boys Team. (GOD IS GOOD!)

Seeing you play with Ted and Sean is one of my favorite moments at home (up until the point when somebody starts crying). You always try your very best to be patient with the little kids, no matter how intentionally annoying Ted may be. Even when he starts to play rough or engages you in a "wrestling match", you still try to appease him without being too rough. 


When either Ted or Sean ends up hurting you, you don't fight back. You can be very forgiving when the small boys do not follow the simple rules of Zingo. Seeing you behave in a mature way with your younger brothers makes Mommy very proud of you.


Thank you for being a good Kuya, Francis. I pray that you will always have a kind heart. 


All my love, 
Mommy
