Merry Christmas!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Just came back here in Singapore last night from an early Christmas trip in my hometown Cebu. If you&#8217;ve seen <a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/josephinesicad\">my instagram <\/a>posts, you&#8217;d know the trip had a bit of drama when Pixie sadly caught &#8216;baby measles&#8217; and got sick mostly on the entire trip. Glad that&#8217;s over though and even though it felt sad to leave Cebu a day before Christmas Eve, I&#8217;m grateful we were still able to spend some family time with the grandparents.<\/p>\n<p>Today will be quite extra rush. No Christmas menu plan yet. Haven&#8217;t even unpacked at all so laundry is waiting. Oh dear! But that&#8217;s okay. We intended to spend Christmas humbly and simply at home, play Christmas songs all day long, unplug from the internet world, so YES &#8211; no Facebook later until after Christmas and focus on cuddles, laughter, singing, eating and just being with each other.<\/p>\n<p>I told the husband no need to buy expensive Christmas gifts for each other,too because I wanted to give more to Typhoon Haiyan victims back home in Cebu. It just felt all heartwarming and meaningful to share more to people whom we really don&#8217;t know and not need to pay us back with anything.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s how I exactly want Christmas to be always remembered.<\/p>\n<p>To our families, friends, and clients&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8676\" alt=\"2013-12-09_0001\" src=\"http:\/\/josephinesicadphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/2013-12-09_0001.jpg\" width=\"1200\" height=\"879\" \/>P.S.
