I posted earlier that my sister's coming home and yes, she's here now. We just had dinner and it was then i realized that we are complete again. We rarely get the whole family together due to our schedules. My brothers are living nearby but they're always busy at work. I'm glad we get to have another chance this year.

When were older that's when we realized how important family is, specially if you don't see each other everyday.. that's why sometimes it feels good when ever I visit my brothers. hope you enjoy the day with sister.

Life styles today are filled with a lot of activities that having a dinner with your family is becoming less a viable.
