It’s exactly a month now since we attended Ate Mitchie's wedding held at the Fernbrook Gardens in Manila, Philippines. Hendrik was one of the Page Boys - he had his first role of being a Bible Bearer during Ate Mitchie’s wedding.
Months before the wedding we have already informed him about this role and did a couple of practice walks with a book / bible in hand. Hendrik was willing and obliging. On the day of the wedding itself (14 January 2012), with a little coaching from Mommy beside him, with the bible clasped safely in his little hands, Hendrik effortlessly and perfectly walked down the aisle. In fact, he was the only one of his age that walked independently without a parent in hand or a parent carrying. Good job little boy!

Though we never got the chance to chat with Ate Mitchie during the course of our short stay in Manila (both parties were busy with our own hectic schedules and errands to finish before flying off again), we are still grateful for the opportunity to be a part of and to witness a family’s wedding.

One thing that we discovered about Hendrik during the reception and / or after wedding party was he is a party animal. He was always in the dance floor dancing by himself or with his cousins. Even before the dancing started, he was already urging and dragging his Dad to accompany him to the dance floor!
