She's Finally Here ;)

My older sister, Hazel arrived here in the States on Monday, June 22nd. She lives with her husband about an hour and forty-some minutes drive from where we live. I'm so glad that she's finally here and that she could come and visit me when I give birth. It sometimes is still hard for me being away from my family, but having my sister here with me now, somehow makes it easier for me to bear. I haven't met her, yet since she got here but, we constantly talk to each other on the phone.

We do feel happy for her, especially that she's with her husband now. They've been away from each other for almost 8 months and I know how tough it has been for both of them. Now, the only thing that I know both of them are trying to deal with is, being away from their kids - Haniel, 4, and our little Princess Rhecia, 2. They're too young to be away from their parents, but that's how things need to be for now. Soon, they'll be here as well. That's one of our many prayers.

I do hope to go up there and meet them. My husband and I are kind of busy right now putting things in order in our apartment and the only available time we could possibly drive up there is during weekends. We're thinking about visiting them this weekend, the 4th of July, but that isn't for sure as of now. If anything, we'd probably head up there next weekend. But, we're definitely going to visit them.

I can't wait to see my sister!!
