Monica visited the Philippines years ago and met Yolly who was then pregnant. Yolly named the baby after Monica and made her the Ninang. This integrated Monica to Yolly's family in Calasiao and, save for documents and legalities, the baby became Monica's adopted daughter. Shuttling back and forth from New York to Calasiao, Monica has visited baby Nikka every six months for the last ten years, sent her money for schooling, and thereby became a part of Yolly's big family. Monica, who was adopted as a child and lived with several foster families, has found herself a family to love, to care and to share her dreams with, halfway across the globe. "It is a family built not by blood, but by relationships," she said.
