• Love, Naturally

    It just amazes me, that’s why I’ll write about it. (No this is not about my lovelife – harhar.) While Luigi was having a bath, I was telling him (for the umpteenth time) why he has to be really careful inside the bathroom. And what he said tugged at my heart, for the simple acceptance…

  • Party Animals

    The boys had 3 parties this weekend – 2 yesterday, and 1 today. Yesterday, lagare sila, from ortigas, to compound (David Olimpo’s birthday). Both were schedule in the afternoon, kaya medyo late sila kay David. Today naman, they went to the birthday party of Miko’s classmate in White Plains. While they were there, kami ni…

  • Romeo and Juliet

    Luigi’s club is the Drama Guild. Here they do pantomimes, face painting, working with props. Their most recent activity is the play “Romeo and Juliet“. The teacher auditioned them to choose who was right for the characters. Luigi was chosen as Romeo! This Friday, they have to memorize their lines, so that they can start…

  • Domino

    Tita Ella visited the boys this afternoon. She brought them their favorite choco mallows. And she spent time playing with them. Miko taught her how to play domino… First time lang ni tita Ella. Ok naman pagturo ni Miko, except for one thing… and can someone please explain this to me also, kasi di ko…

  • San Miguel October-Fest

    Miko: “Mommy, there’s a song about my name… (singing) San Miguel October Twelve…” Ayoko sanang i-correct kasi ang cute e, walang saysay. Pero kinorek ko na rin. Then I asked him if he knows what that is about. He knows that it’s about Bands playing. Dati sa Tomas Morato lang, ngayon madaming venues na. We’ll…

  • Epilogue- Telling Time

    In my previous post entitled ‘Telling Time’, I have expressed surprise at Miko’s comment of half past twelve. When I observed him last Tuesday, I saw on their whiteboard the phrases “half past”, “quarter past” and “quarter to”… Yun naman pala! Lesson nila sa school ang telling time. Matalinong bata talaga…

  • ILNY T-shirt

    For show and tell today, the kids had the following assignments: Luigi- anything; Miko- souvenir from another country. Luigi brought the picture frame of our piano recital write up in the Inquirer. For Miko, I let him bring my old ILNY (I ‘heart’ NY) t-shirt. I got this 25 years ago, year 1980, and it’s…

  • Angels’ Day

    Today is the feastday of the Archangels Gabriel, Miguel and Raphael. So happy feastday to my 2 angels, Luis Gabriel, and Miguel. And also to Dan Gabriel. And since Miko’s pet name for me is ‘Angel’ (please see my previous post on Pet Names), e di sisingit na rin ako. Happy Feastday to my whole…
