Rainy day activity

The little man holed indoors for the past three days and at times it's driving me NUTS! He has so much pent up energy and it's hard for him not to run and romp around.

We used the past few days as  bonding time. We did activities together. He would draw stick images of me (always with a happy face). He would ask me to teach him how to write numbers and letters (difficulty with numbers 3, 4 and 5 and the letter K of his name). I would awake with him kissing my arms and cheeks when he gets sleepy. We would fall asleep hugging with his feet on top of me.

This afternoon, we would do some paper crafts (construction paper, scissors, fuzzy wires, etc.) to keep the little man occupied.

Came across this on FB, posted by https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=419259891521982&set=a.418406274940677.1073741828.418396208275017&type=1&theater

 

 

 

 

I hope and I pray that I would have the time to bond with him until he goes up. Striving to be the best and coolest MOM.

Other reviewers see this book as an over dramatic, but I have to say: UNLESS you've been there and underwent all the heartaches and disappointments, you would never know the feeling. when you do, you will just say: it's just RIGHT

Valentines Day

When i was a kid, on this day my mom gave us gifts on this special day. It was a way to let each other feel the love we have for each other. To this day, this tradition is still very much alive.

This is Skid's gift to his Dada and Nana. They love gardening. :)



This is my gift from hubby.



And this is my gift to hubby. brothers and other family members who love their chocolates sweets!



and this is a V Day project of Skid. It's 2 necklaces made of nylon, drinking straws and cut rubber hearts. One for Mom and one for Dad held together by a stapled note. I LOVE IT! and i think Dad loves it too!!!

i love Fun-days!

this was taken on our regular Family Fun-day. The reason we're wearing red was because our baby "ruled" it. That morning, he told Dad to change from a blue to red shirt because he was wearing one.
Skid addressing Hubby: Dad, suot mo red! (Dad, you wear red!)
Skid addressing Me: 'Kaw din Mom! (You too Mom!)


I have to say, Skid is right! the color looks nice and i love our smiles...

LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR NEXT FUN-DAY!!! <3 <3 <3

25 years and beyond...a high school reunion

Thanks to the power of technology, in 2005 i was reconnected with a couple of high school buddies. Over the years, we will meet, have coffee moments, food trip, celebrate "occasions" in our lives like a big 4-0, birthdays, weddings, etc.

But the year 2012 is special. Twenty five 25 years since we graduated from our alma mater Canossa Sta. Rosa.

Over the past few months, emails and PMs were sent back and forth to communicate with classmates based out of town and abroad. not to mention our coffee-planning sessions :)

All the planning was 2-part. One is our silver gathering at Vivere Suites Alabang last December 1, 2012. A couple of classmates based abroad went home for the affair. Thirty three attendees for a class of 150++ (not a bad turnout!)

Part two was a homecoming to the new site of Canossa. It was great to see old familiar faces of teachers and "sisters". Hairs on my arms stood on end when we sang the Canossa Hymn. I realized i still know the tune by heart after leaving my school 25 years ago.

Thank you Canossa for making me what i am today. For molding my character for ten tender years of my life <3 <3 <3
