TO HEART:

ISA SA PINAKAMASAKIT PARA SA ISANG AMA AY MAWALA ANG ANAK NA BABAE SA KANYANG PODER.

MULA NANG PINANGANAK KA, IKAW AT ANG MGA KAPATID MO ANG BUHAY NAMIN.

MARAMI KAMING SINAKRIPISYO AT ANG TANGING HANGAD LANG NAMIN (AY) MABIGYAN LANG KAYO NG MAGANDANG KINABUKASAN AT BUONG PAMILYA.

THIS IS IT. YOU ARE ABOUT TO ENTER A NEW CHAPTER IN YOUR LIFE.

YOUR MOM AND I TAUGHT YOU THE PROPER VALUES IN LIFE.

AND YOU ARE OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT'S RIGHT OR WRONG. MY ONLY WISH IS TO SEE BOTH OF YOU HAPPY.

ALAM MO ANAK, GUSTONG GUSTO KITANG IHATID SA ALTAR.

SINO BA NAMAN ANG AMA NA AYAW MAKITA ANG KANYANG ANAK SA PINAKA-IMPORTANTENG ARAW NG BUHAY NIYA. BUT A LOT OF THINGS HAS HAPPENED THAT HINDER US FROM GOING.

SANA CHIZ, MAHALIN MO NANG BUONG BUO ANG ANAK NAMIN.

ACCEPT EVERYTHING ABOUT HER.

TAKE CARE OF HER AND LOVE HER UNCONDITIONALLY.

JUST LIKE HER MOM AND I LOVED HER UNCONDITIONALLY.

THIS IS MY PROMISE -- WHEN THE DAY COMES THAT I SEE BOTH OF YOU TRULY HAPPY,

WHEN I SEE CHIZ LOVING YOU THE WAY YOU DESERVE TO BE LOVED, I WILL COME KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR.

I MAY NOT BE THERE RIGHT NOW BUT I AM THINKING OF YOU HEART.

I LOVE YOU,

DAD
