My Triathlete

Feb 18, 2018 - Butuan RCL Triathlon Series

 This was Arki's 1st triathlon race. Competing for age 8-15 category (even though he's still 6). This was more like a tune up race for the upcoming Alaska Ironkids this coming March in Davao City. 

 It was more of a play for him than a competition. It's always like this in every races. We don't really pressure him to join a race to win, as long as he is enjoying what he is doing. It's already a consolation for us that his clubfeet are now fixed, big thanks to this sport. All our effort and the effort of his coaches paid off.

With my ever supportive parents.

I'm officially a triathlete and definitely Alaska Ironkids ready


He finished 6th out of 9 considering he was the youngest player. Who would've thought that my once a clubfoot baby, is now officially a triathlete. I am so proud of you my babe. We love you so much!!! 

 Well, all races ends in lakwatsa after. So we went to some tourist spots around Butuan in our spare time.

A love letter --- for Jojo

Image
Dear Jojo, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. Love never fails." I cor. 13:4-8 These words from the bible deeply struck me, questioning my love for you. I know I have not been a good wife. A lot of people may be saying I am not good enought for you, or that you're too good for me and that I don't deserve you. You let me hurt you. You let me say unpleasant words to you. I've said the most disrespectful words to you. And what did I get after saying those things? Silence. Not a single word from you.
