JOHN ESTRADA recently celebrated his birthday together with his family and close friends. Kasama sa mga dumalo ang kanyang mga anak na sina Yna, Moira, Kyla, at Yuan.
John is very close to his kids at parang magkakaibigan ang turingan nila sa isa’t isa. Puring-puri ng magkakapatid ang kanilang ama. Sabi nga ni Yuan, “Me and dad are like buddies. We know each other well. Sometimes we play video games and we get a little competitive. We talk about football, basketball.”
Siyempre pa ay hindi kumpleto ang kasiyahan kung wala ang bagong anghel sa buhay nina John at Priscilla Meirelles na si Anechka. Tingnan mo nga naman ang bilis ng panahon. Parang kailan lang when the couple tied the knot in a romantic sunset seaside wedding at Thunderbird Resorts in Poro Point, San Fernando, La Union. Ngayon ay mayroon na silang Baby Anechka na lalong nagpapatibay sa kanilang pagmamahalan at pagsasama.
John’s children love their baby sister at masaya sila sa pagkakaroon ng bagong kalaro. “My kids love babies. Kahit kaninong baby, love nila so ano pa kaya kung kapatid nila? With my four kids with Janice (de Belen), I don’t have problems with them. Whenever they are free, anytime iyon, sabi ko sa kanila kahit 30 minutes lang, quality time lang, let’s have dinner. Let’s talk about your school or whatever.”
Patunay sa magandang samahan ng magkakapatid ay ang mga nakatutuwang kuwento nina Kyla, Moira, Yna, at Yuan tungkol kay Anechka. Moira and Yuan say they’re happy because there’s a new family member. “When she’s full at hindi siya puyat, tawa lang siya nang tawa. Masaya naman siya,” sabi ni Kyla. Dagdag pa ni Yna, “She’s a baby. Sobrang nakaka-excite. You get to play with her.”
Priscilla is all praises of her husband. “He has been doing a good job. Very loving with the baby. This is the first that we spend his birthday as a family, the three of us. Hi babe! Thank you so much for being a great husband [and a] great friend.”
Kaibigan, usap tayo muli!
