Celebrating the birthday of our beloved shooting star — Peque Gallaga.

This photo of Peque working behind the scenes by that giant kawa could likely be the inspiration to naming Mahala Dewdrop Kawali while she was in my belly.

Peque meant a lot to so many of us, touching our lives in big and small ways as teacher, mentor, friend. Marking personal breakthroughs and highlights — enhancing our own outlook in life.

For wonder | wander | women, we are eternally grateful and abjectly appreciative to have been accepted and adopted into the whole Peque Gallaga clan for many happy years.

Happy Birthday, El Pogi!

As Peque’s mass comm student we parked in their home every semester — working on our various school projects while fed and cared for by his wife Madie, their whole production and household staff, with all five children.

When I was pregnant with Mahala, Peque was in Manila mostly and I spent my weekends as Madie’s roomie. Two pregnant women spending her last and my first trimester together.

with our production gang — eight months pregnant

Holed up in bed, munching on home baked and junk food cravings as we vegged on our fave videos. Plotting our conquest of the world was a large part of the agenda too.

Great times that continue to sustain us with lovely memories as we hold our beloved mumo eternally in our hearts.
