My Flip Side

My Filipino Family and the endless stories to come. My father was born into a litter of 11 Sarmientos, my mother of 9 Aclans. Both came from the slums of the Philippines. Okay, maybe not squater poor but does mentioning that my dad walked to grade school barefoot help? Not only do I love them dearly but I barely know the details of their lives. Like many Filipino-Americans, I think we've barely scratched the surface to learn so much about our parents and ancestors. I would love to find out and share that with you all.
