Now, 10 years later, we celebrate a different wedding - our cousin, Ate Myra, got marreid to Kuya Paul on February 25. There are not only 9 of us, because with Paula being born less than a month after the '97 picture was taken, that makes us an even 10. This time, with all the families represented, this makes our attendance the closest to perfect in 10 years (Paula not in picture).
We've grown to be the ones getting married and having babies. We're not kids anymore - we already have careers. One can say it would be great to be together as kids again, but the beauty in reality is that nothing can top a childhood with the best Christmas of '94. And that we continue to build Mangaser cousin memories til now.
I'm sure that ten years from now, we'd still be smiling in front of the camera, this time flanked with husbands and wives and babies. But still cousins. Always.
