After the miscarriage, andrea and I came to a conclusion that perhaps one of the reasons why Vivienne was taken back from us is because we’re not yet financially ready for a new baby. God knows we wanted her and loved her dearly.

I mean, being far away from both our parents, we should have had means to being a little mobile just in case Vivienne or Mateo had an emergency. (We used to have that with mateo because of the red car.) We should have had been able to bring her to any place she desires – the zoo, park, museums, etc. (We used to have that with mateo because of the red car.) We don’t… not now.

This is why after much consideration, we have decided to put all our effort in getting financially ready for the next one. We’re starting with a car. Currently, we’re on the hunt for a new ride. Well, not a new one exactly, but something a little newer than the red car (around 3-8 years old). If possible, I’d prefer something that can accommodate a Golden Retriever at the back like a pickup, an SUV, or even used rv for sale, although the last one isn’t that practical for our country. Because aside from all the baby stuff that comes with a new baby, we also have to have room for Aria, our pet retriever.

Hopefully, if things start looking better, we might just be able to get one in time for the summer break.
