My family had gone through some incredibly painful stuff too—I know how hard it can be. It really does make a lot of difference when you help each other through sufferings, doesn't it? Our ordeals brought our family closer, and I can see that yours did too :) Your son is cute :)

I was wondering when trick-or-treating started in the Phils. As far back as the 70's pa pala. Ah yes, sometimes looking at pictures bring back bittersweet memories. Your children look so cute in their costumes. And of course the kitties too. :) Thanks for this informative post. I was wondering when trick-or-treating started in the Phils.

Oh dear stillborn girls must have been hard to bear. I have a friend who is working hard to works towards the positive resolution of her grief over the loss of her baby (died of stillborn too) @Cris- I didn't know it''s not as extravagant. I believed those houses felt like they were even more horrifying than carnival scenes. I remembered one house that had a coffin whose casket opened now and then with a zombie scaring the wits of the kids. My balikbayan sister was amazed at the Halloween preparations which is just more elaborate than in the states. The girls treasure these memories. @Vicky- Thanks VIcky for the sympathies.

First of all, my deepest sympathies for the loss of your beloved son. I had 2 daughters who were stillborn and i often wondered about the impossible. Anyhow, life is a journey and we do move along and i seem to identify with your journey a lot. God bless from down under and thanks for sharing.
