Marielle, the Birthday Girl
Every birthday that Marielle enjoys is extra ordinarily special to me. Doctors warned me that my miracle baby might not last till her 7th birthday. But what do they know anyway?
Today, my lovely, feisty and smart girl turns TWENTY YEARS OLD. Can you imagine that? I am a mother to two adult daughters.
Now there is one thing you can all do to make her happy on her 20th birthday.
She needs 60 Filipino bloggers (writing for their personal blog) for a content analysis on a Psychology 118 class requirement. Here are her groupmates imploring for your help and if you could volunteer your blog.
We are a group of Psychology undergraduate students from the University of the Philippines, Diliman. For our final study in our Psychology 118 class (Field Methods in Psychology), we are investigating the predominant topics blogged about, the values evident, and the emotions conveyed in personal blogs. It would be greatly appreciated if you allowed us to include your blog in our study.
Thank you for making her day.

Happy Birthday to your lovely daughter, Marielle. I wish her best of health and many great opportunities in life.
I followed the link and read about the story when you got sick and feared for the life of your baby. It must have been a very difficult ordeal. I admire your strong faith during those trying times. God is indeed very kind.
I’d like to volunteer but my blog won’t turn 6 months old until Sept. 27. But if it is in any way possible, then I’m in.
Anyway, please extend my warmest greetings to your beautiful daughter
