High tide or Low Tide - Kyle's version

I remember that Charlene Gonzales wow-ed the world with her witty question clarification towards her Ms. Universe question, How many islands does our country have?

Well just right after dinner Kyle had a similar witty question....
We went outside after eating... when Kyle noticed the moon.

He said: "Mama, what kind of moon is that?"
Mama: " Crescent anak..." I even wondered and checked if my answer is correct. Dont want to give him a wrong information.

Kyle added: " I know mama... but what kind of a crescent is it?
Mama:" huh? you mean to say there is more to it than being a crescent? Apologies anak but what do you mean... "

Kyle:" ah kasi there are types of crescent.. is it waxing or Wanning?"

Wahhh meron pa pala nun.... gosh...
Ang tamang sagot my dears ... its a wanning crescent after all.

Hay... when my son kyle asks a question more often its doesnt usually mean that he doesnt know it and is seeking for answers... its more of I am in a hot seat and I was being tested if I knew the answer. Gulp! Better keep up and read what he reads... lol!

I love you!

Do you ever make "gigil to your kids without a warning? I'm sure you do. =)
I often do this and choose a very unfamiliar timing...
Sometimes I would jump into their side , hug them , squeezing them a little bit and saying : " I love you baby! Mwah mwah mwah! "

There are times that my kids will just take it and say I love you too... but there are times that they would ask me why... now this is the moment I've been waiting for.

When they ask me: " why are you saying i love you mama? " I would tell them:
" I said I love you because I felt how much I love you."
"There shouldn't be any occasion to say it my dear... if you feel it say it! "

I just want them be at ease when we their parents say it to them. So everyday i often as in OFTEN say it to them ....
Now I am happy because they also got the habit. Out of nowhere they would just come up to me and say " I love you" sometimes while I watch TV, surf the net, when they had done something wrong , when they sense I am down, when I am angry or simply while we are eating or having fun!.....

I also like the fact that they say I loe you also to our kasambahay...

Make it a habit... its not embarrassing to say I love you to someone that means so much to you!

And before I forget - - - -
I love you friends!

Great wednesday morning...


The reason why I was not posting much stuff in here is because I was sick for 4 days now. I had been taking care of my sick children - 1 after the other ( gosh ) that stress got into me - boom! I too got sick. Everybody fears it was dengue since my temperature would rise up to 43 degrees. But thank God it was just a viral infection too....

My typical day , after taking kids to school is to sit down relax for awhile as I defrost some meats for cooking. Open my laptop and do some surfing, chatting and mailing lotsa friends.
But yesterday was different. I woke up late ( 8:00am) and decided to just drink milk for breakfast. Cant take too much food lately.
As I drink my milk I surfed the net and chance upon my good friend CES. We had a little talk. Until a very familiar sound very distinct of an Air21 van arrived. I anticipated their every move - opening and closing of doors, doorbell sound, maids footsteps rushing towards our main door.... and the sweetest of all.. loud footsteps coming the stairs sounding much stronger as my Ate nears me. Yey! there was indeed a package for me!

This package carries alot of Marie and hello kitty stuff. Kitty for me and Marie for my daughter ... who decided to collect also like me. It made my day no doubt. Felt much much better seeing all those loots.

I waved farewell to my friend as I excitedly went into opening the package.. taking pictures of it and whats inside... Awwwww they were all nice. =)

Gotta catch them all.....


Sasha's been sick for almost a week. She caught some viral infection at school... Hay... she's a picky eater until now maybe thats the reason her resistance to sickness is down.

While at home she entertains herself by watching movies, eating fruits and painting all sorts of stuff.

But her favorite is this .... she likes to draw and paint CLEFA , a very cute coral colored pokemon.

Eversince I bought her a clefa stuff toy from my friend VT, she practically adopted it as if it was a pet. It eats , sleeps with her. It got its own bed, blanket, pillows and yes space on her bed.

If VT could see clefa now, he would probably faint! You see clefa was played well... and by this time she needs some washing.... so Vt go figure. I dont wanna post her pix and make you faint. Hehehe

LORD, God, bless this person in whatever it is that You know he or she
may be needing this day....

2. Then copy and paste to your email and forward to relatives/friends.

Within hours people would have prayed for you, and you would have
caused a multitude of people to pray to God for other people.

Then sit back and watch the power of God work in your life for doing
the thing that you know He loves.

What we do in life echoes in eternity....

Relaxing retreat within SM north edsa

I woke this afternoon and noticed how I neglected my nails lately.... T'was long, clean but not that neat for my taste. So I headed to SM north . I dont want to be on the waiting line so I scouted for a vacant slot among those who is offer such services. It took me three tries and I landed at RELAXSASI. Pedicure costs P100, and manicure costs P90.00.

Upon entering the hallway, you'll see Thailand inspired interiors, relaxing mellow lights and alot of small rooms. Each rooms has a lazy boy and big pillows. This is the first time that I had my nails done and at the same time could really relax. I don't adjust my body , arms and legs for the attendant - she adjust to me.

After all my nails are done I asked the girl to give me 5 minutes to relax and wait for my nails to dry further. She willingly said yes and closed the curtains. My session at relaxsasi gave me time to unwind and yes RELAX especially that these past 2 weeks was a terrible terrible week.

It gave me time to rejuvenate my senses... talk to God, and plan for the coming week.
I actually walked out of the mall feeling much much better and feeling positive again... until-

"holy smoke!" I said to myself as I walk out of SM mall doors and see the pollution caused by buses, cars and jeep along edsa. Oh well... back to some old unsightly environment. But nonetheless I still feel good. I'm okay and ready to go through life's challenges again.
