Dad in VSU high school building Baybay Leyte, Philippines

Dad went back to visit his elementary and high school in his hometown – Baybay, Leyte. He graduated in the early 50’s and moved to the capital city of Manila by mid 60’s where he started a new life with us in it.

Writer’s Quote Wednesday : Books, Love and Affection

Whoever thought of this quote is brilliant. I can really attest to this and I am sure many of you will too.

The connections brought on by books are priceless. I just wish that children and parents will continue to bond and grow in love with books around them.

Happy Wednesday!
