Once upon a time in the year 1995, Jose and Leizel had a baby girl named Jozel. Jose was twenty-six and Leizel was twenty-one when they had their first child.

    Jose and Leizel lived in a rural area in the province of Miag-ao, Iloilo. Their lives were simple yet happy. They lived together with family relatives.

    One day, Jose received a call. He was hired to work in Bacolod City! The problem was it was far from Miag-ao, Iloilo. He had to ride a ferry to go there.

    Jose didn't know what to feel. He felt happy that he got the job. However, at the same time, he felt worried because he had to leave his family.

    It was very tough for Jose, but he chose what he thought was best for his family. He accepted the job and went to work in Bacolod City.

    Jose started working in the city and went home to Miag-ao every time he was off duty. This had been his routine until the family decided to move out of Miag-ao and live together in the city.

    Sadly, Jose's mother, Mercedita, had to stay together with her aged siblings.     

    It was during Christmas, New Year, or special occasions that the family can get together. 

    For Jozel, who was growing fast, this was one of her cherished memories, celebrating Christmas or New Year with the family in Miag-ao.

    Years had passed, and Jozel graduated from High School. Another good news was Jozel's mother, Leizel, was carrying a child.

    In the year 2012, Jiazna was born. Everybody in the family had mixed emotions because they weren't expecting the baby, but everybody was happy.

    Jiazna was the new princess of the family, and Jozel adored her so much. The first word that came out of Jozel's mouth when she saw her sister was beautiful. 

    The grandparents: Modesta, Mercedita, Evelyn, Florencia, Antonio, and Eduardo, were so happy to see their other grandchild. The same happened to the aunts and uncles, Edeflor, Jose, and Elsa.
