Day 26: Family Portrait

It's official! We are going to have a new family portrait!! yeeaaay~

Some of you might have seen our old family portrait and knew exactly how I hate it. For years, I've been waiting for a new family portrait and now, the waiting is almost over!

But it's not just about the portrait. During the photo session, I had a bitter-sweet moment seeing my mom, dad, brothers and sister gorgeously looking and very happy.

I could see LOVE from mom's happy eyes and dad's shy smile. They have been through good times and bad times for 28 years of marriage and over 40 years of friendship. I prayed to God, asked God nicely: I want to have that kind of relationship someday :P

Then I saw my big brother. He is getting wiser and wiser, yet still hilarious, silly and annoying most of the time, hahaha. He's my childhood hero and now he's going to tie the knot. He's still my big brother no matter what, but the fact that he's going to build a new family, THAT, makes me kinda..hmm.. feeling heavy-hearted.

My little Fina and Ari are growing up too fast. Fina has grown into a beautiful woman and Ari is becoming a smart young man. I couldn't remember when was the last time I helped mom to feed them or played with them. Whew~

It's just overwhelming. I love my family. I love them to death. This family portrait isn't just a picture. It's a time capsule. Although we're all growing old, moving out, and becoming something, we're still family.

Thanks a lot to Naya Nurindra from Mint Studio. We're looking forward to the pictures!
