I remember when us four would be at lolo and lola's house in the room upstairs...gossiping about boys and who knows what. Our pre-teen years don't seem so long ago at all. Now we're getting older, maturing, finishing up our last years of college, all living on our own and trying to make it in this world. Christina got married this weekend and it's just now hitting me!

We're old. We're adults now.

And it's making me also realize how amazing our family is. Despite what we have gone through...our low lows, high highs, death of loved ones, the birth of new ones...we always manage to be there for each other. The Calub family has been through a lot but it has only made us stronger. We've definitely had our drama like any family does..but this family of mine is a strong, solid rock. I'm so thankful that I have them to fall back on and them to look up to. I couldn't ask for better parents, cousins, aunties, uncles, nieces, nephews or grandparents. I love you all.

Welcome to it, Allen.
