Sharing Happiness During the Holidays: Post Christmas Party for the Kids in the Community! | Post Typhoon Odette

in ASEAN HIVE COMMUNITY3 years ago (edited)


My baby and I were at the playground together with a couple of kids hovering over the small slide. Since the pandemic, kids spend more of their time indoors and after the typhoon hit Cebu, you’d barely see kids around our community due to fallen debris. So after the community clean-up, a lot of the kids were eager to play together.

When I asked them, what’s their parent’s plan for Christmas day, most of them are just staying inside and doing normal everyday stuff. It made me sad because Christmas is really special for kids. I remember growing up in a small town, our Christmas was always the most celebrated holiday of the year. Every kid is out on the street on Christmas day and we bring our own basket, box, big plastic for the Christmas little giveaways. Most homes that have people in them have something to give not just to kids but to anyone who knocks at their door and greets ”Maupay nga Pasko” (Merry Christmas)! Some kids would even do carolings still on Christmas day and others also dance to the music. It is such a wonderful celebration and I truly miss having this.

I can see from the pictures alone that this was a hoot. I am sure the youths were really grateful for all the fun and games.

We are not totally affected here in Leyte sis. Thanks God! It's normal here now. No big damages of typhoon Odette. Only black out for almost a week.
I am grateful I am able to escape Cebu few days after typhoon Odette.
Kamo dira sis musta na?
