Everyone loves a Filipina-Irish girl…

I celebrated St Patricks Day with my family on Sunday. It almost didn’t happen. However, my sister and I decided how important it was that we do celebrate our heritage for our daughters.  Our Irish roots come from our father- he has passed onto us the knowledge and love of our heritaga and now we had to keep the tradition going strong.  With the help of our Mom (who cooked the cornbeef and cabbage) and our brother (who provided the Guinness) we made it special.

My niece had her first St Patricks Day and my daughter, her only cousin got to celebrate with her.  That is a shared memory we have forever.  There was food, drink, irish jigs, friends and laughter and really that what it’s all about…being together to celebrate our love and respect of our heritage.

Erin go Bragh!
