Miko loves being tickled. Even as a one year old, he used the few words he knew to express his love for this pastime… “Stop! Stop! Stop!” so I stop… then “Again mommy” Nowadays, his expression has progressed to, well, something like this… “Yes…there! … Oh yeah!… Oh yeah!… I like it!… Don’t stop!… Oh…
Luigi had a sugat in his knee recently. Miko asked him, “Kuya is your sugat still painful?”“Not anymore.” “What about if I punch it?”
Sometimes during dinner, we make it a rule to speak in Filipino while eating. Times like these, Luigi tends to be quiet. Si Miko madaldal pa rin. Kanina, after Luigi was done with his meal, he turned to me and in all seriousness said “Peeya, meron po ba tayong dessert?” I told him that even…
We had lunch at Heaven n Eggs, the bugoys, me, Dan, and his partners. One of them ordered Vigan Longganisa (ang sarap ng itsura!). Miko was looking at it, so he offered it to Miko. Ayaw. “It looks like cat poo!”

We took the boys to the Book Fair, at the World Trade Center. Lolo and Tita Ella went with us. A lot of book stalls there, of all varieties, but all we ended up buying were children’s books and comics. Lolo bought them a Tagalog book “Hipon and Biya”, and since the author was there,…
The thunder and lightning at 2am this morning was so intense, that even I got scared. Dan checked on the kids to see if they awoke. True enough, both were awake, and covering their ears. Miko cried when he saw his daddy. We ended up sleeping with them.
Last night, Dan discovered that Miko’s canine tooth seemed to be crowding in. We can actually see the tooth from way up the gums. So I took him to the dentist today. Turns out that his permanent tooth is already growing. Kinda early, this tooth, because canine teeth grow out around 9 years of age….
