LEDO - Live Everyday Die Once

LEDO is a journal of the "everyday of everything" in my life that is worth remembering ...... to remind me that each new day is a chance to explore new things, to enjoy life, and to thank God! I always believe that we live everyday and we die once!

Proudest Momsie!

Day 23 of 2016

I woke-up this morning feeling well rested and refreshed, ready to face the day.  As I hurdled through lunch, I chanced to browse Facebook.  And, Lo and Behold!  I saw the news, which was already shared by some of my friends:

Garrido overall winner in Macau

This is the print version shared first by Jun Anading!

The online version can be accessed at Philstar.com

Joaquin “Wakkeen” Garrido is the son of my first-born, Jerome.   Thus, making me his proud Momsie!!!  Wakkeen is still very young at his tender age; he just turned 10 this January.   As a Grade 5 student, he is supposedly still playing with his toy cars, but instead, he is driving now a fast kart and a Mini Rok.

I went to see him race on May 11, 2014… he was just starting to officially join the race.   And since then, he had gone a long way.   That was the first and for now, the only race I have ever seen personally.  I can’t stand to see how fast those little boys are driving in a challenging racetrack.  I might get a heart attack, especially that I am aware that one of those little boys is my grandson.

Pictures I got from the one and only race I watched:

My dilemma now is what to bring him home as ‘pasalubong’ whenever I go traveling.   I remember then that whenever I travel, I always see to it that I brought him one or two cars to add to his collections.

This is his car collections.…. Photo taken by his Mom, Candy!

And I am still in quandary if I am going to see him in his another race, here or abroad!? 

To know more about his Karting adventures, please visit his page at https://www.facebook.com/wakkeen/.  May I also request your support by LIKING his Facebook page?  Thank you and see you in the racetrack :0
