The last time a baby girl was born to the Carlos Clan was 21 years ago.. and that baby girl was me. The following years, my cousins started to have their own families and bore children. There were 7 children in the third generation and all of them are boys. And we feel drought for not having a baby girl.
2009: The first time a male cousin got married.
2010: When we heard his wife is pregnant, we had a speculation think that maybe because a girl is married, her child is a boy and now that a boy is married, maybe his child will be a girl. Just our wishful thinking.
May 22, 2010: A good news came, Ate Gen gave birth to a bouncing baby girl! And as the title says, "Viola Elizabeth PAscua-Concepcion" is her name, named after my auntie, her grandmother Violeta, and her grandmother to mother side, Elizabeth.
Unfortunately, she's in Canada. We had to wait until November for her to come to the Philippines. We just have to wait patiently and see her through pictures.
And we are all looking forward in seeing her again next November.
