Welcome Family & Friends of the BAACLOs

I've been wanting to create this blog website for our clan, but today, I have finally decided to really do it. Maybe the reason it took me this long is because, by doing this, I think I am assigning myself as the Chronicler/Archivist of the clan. And I am not a good writer. I just happen to have the drive to try to know how everyone is doing. It will be tough but I guess, I will be able to get some help from everyone right? Today is a very important day for me, as my Mama, JUSTINIANA better known as NANA, is celebrating her supposedly 79th birthday. Happy Birthday Mama, I love you...I miss you so much!

Since I really have no special plans to celebrate her birthday (due to budget constraints) other than saying prayers for her, I decided to sit down and create this blog, in memory of her. And this day will mark I so hope that we will be able to celebrate, remember, members of the Baaclo Clan worldwide.

So, if you're not a Baaclo, allow me start with the introduction of the Baaclos...FATHER was the late CIRILO BAACLO and MOTHER was the late RAFAELA AQUINO, from which comes as we were told 10 sisters total, yes 10 sisters! So here we go:

The eldest is (1) +CARMEN, better known as Mameng, next is (2) FELISA known to all as the same-Felisa, then comes (3) +LUCILA a sister that passed away during the war, then comes (4) LOURDES, better known as Edith, and then another sister that passed away (5) +DOROTHEA, then comes (6) +JUSTINIANA better known as Nana, then comes the twins (7&8) +RAMONA & SYLVIA, yes, twins run in the family. Then comes (9) RUFINA, better known as Pina, and last but not the least...some drum roll please... (10) ROSARIO, popularly known as Tops or Topeng! Whew!

I won't introduce the family of each of the sisters as I plan on introducing them separately, something to look forward to.

Again, this blog is created to encourage everyone to be able to keep up with who's who in the clan.

I plan on setting up different topics, like BIRTHDAYS, ANNIVERSARIES, NEW BORNS, ACCOMPLISHMENTS, VACATIONS, WHAT'S THE LATEST, and more. If you have any suggestions, please shoot me out a comment and we will include it.

So, welcome everyone, I hope you will enjoy this.
