A special Valentine treat
FROM LEFT: The author’s daughter, Julia, and her boys, Tyler and EJ, Imogen Kate, Amanda and Kert, with dancing partner, Ana Klausen.
I celebrated my birthday on Feb. 13 at Titania’s Wine Celllar, Yakal st., San Antonio Village, Makati City—a special Valentine treat! Its owner, Tita Trillo, a friend since our flying days at PAL, served gourmet food. We played Whitney Houston’s songs all night!
My list of special guests included Marilou Llamas, Remy Millan, Norma Rosado Escano, Greta Lauron, Christy Altura, Gloria Dominguez Garcia, Myrna Magdaluyo, Edna Baxter, Joy Rago, Dr. Becky Singson, MJ Icasiano, Martin Jimenez, Dr. Jimmy Ladao, Frank Evaristo, Chris Stohner Tan, Rosan Cruz, Jullie Yap Daza, Inquirer editor in chief LJM, and founder Eugenia Duran Apostol. Indeed, my “family” has grown through the years!
At this point, I consider myself a happy person. I’ve survived life’s challenges with few scars to show for it. I have a wonderful time conducting photo workshops in Batanes and meeting many different people who love photography.
My life has been worthwhile—raising four beautiful children in a generation very different from mine. As a single woman, my freedom has allowed me to pursue my interests in the fields of education and communication. I attribute my happiness to family and friends!
