Mommy Moments : Grocery Day

mommy moments

It's Friday once again, a day or two we will welcome again the month of August then after a month it's September already then Christmas, time to shop for gifts and some stuff but right now let me post the grocery shopping moment with my kids.

I oftentimes brought Mj for grocery shopping so she would learn how to grocery shop and to budget our money, mostly I would bring a calculator with me so we will not exceed our expenses. Mj will be the one to push our cart when Faith is with us; we always put her in the cart so she won't make a mess. Here are some grocery moment pictures we had:

This was taken during her first birthday celebration, she was so happy that she was able to go with us for shopping for her upcoming party the next day.


Now, its time for her to pay the goods we purchased



This time Mj was in the push cart, sister Merlyn allowed her to sit beside her sister. But mostly she was the one pushing the cart.

Nostalgia # 7 : The Dream


Photobucket

I was in my third grade at that time when I dreamed of myself full of blood. I was hit by a taxi cab and I could see my pink dress turning into red. I could also versioned the doctor who took good care of me and my pink shoes beside me in that white bed in the hospital, I can hear them, asking my name, my address and school. I could hear somebody's paging a doctor to go to the emergency room then I woke up, thank GOD it was only a dream. A dream that I never thought it would happen the next day.

It was a usual day for me; my sister would prepare me to school. In fact she was always the one who would choose which dress I will wear for school. And I totally forgot that the dress she chooses at that day was the dress I dreamed the other night. My father gave me my allowance and he even told me to take care in crossing the highway. I was walking near at the highway when I saw my sister approaching me, she just came from purchasing stocks for our store and the moment she saw me she gave me an additional allowance, I have a total of 1.75 pesos in my hand I was so happy, she gave me 1.00 peso and my father gave me .75 cents before I left our home. I said thank you and went rushing to the highway because my teacher assigned me to teach some of my classmate on how to read.

I whispered a little prayer and was ready to cross the street, I saw the big truck coming but I didn't expect that there's still a taxi cab behind me. I ran as fast as I could but he hit me and I fell. I tried to crawl but I saw my pink shoes, I left it at the middle of the highway, I turn around and got it then I crawled fast to reach beside the highway. I saw people starting to gather around me, I could even hear one person said "Oi kuhaa ni o" ("take the girl") I guess he was talking to the driver, I passed out after that but I still could hear an emergency patrol, it was only like behind me. The driver tried to wake me up, I realized I was already inside his taxi cab. The formation of the blood in my dress was the same in my dream, the doctor, the emergency room, the nurse paging a doctor, and the position of my shoes inside the bed where I lie down.

She Has A Cut

I am so worried my youngest daughter encountered a minor accident; she was cut by a barbecue stick. I brought a banana cue this afternoon at home right after I finish my errands in downtown when I didn't notice her playing with the barbecue stick, all a sudden she cried so hard. Her finger was bleeding; we immediately put her betadine after we clean it with Agua Oxynada.

Last night, she got a fever, it was 38.5 but I don't like to take any risk I have to send her to her Pedia this morning so folks, I might visit you tonight.

Stop this crime

Human trafficking is so rampant nowadays especially child trafficking. It is a big syndicate that goes around the whole world. Some were rescued but mostly were not, and even they get rescued that trauma that they had could not be heal as easy as that. Some were haunted by this horrible experience, worst it takes them lifetime to recover.

These victims need our support, SCTnow.com is helping these victims and they are asking for our support for their institution so they could reach and help out more kids who has been a victim of this crime.

Their website : http://www.sctnow.com/

The First Gift

One of the briefcases my husband gave me was with a laptop inside it. I was so surprised when he told me a package would arrive very soon in my doorsteps. Of course, the laptop was his first gift to me and the briefcase was a bonus. I don't usually use the briefcase though but I guess my husband used it for work.

Actually, there were many briefcases online you might want to look at, who knows the style fits to your taste. And since my laptop is always hooked up with my Internet cable, my briefcase is store at the top of my cabinet for decades already, I bought another small briefcase for my mini laptop and that is I frequently used whenever I brought the Acer with me.

A Blast With My Cousins

When my relatives from the province went here last week, I rented a van for us to take us somewhere a day after the wedding. My other cousin was the one calling for a van for us, and as we thought that there was no other van available at that time, we were obliged almost to hire them even it was so expensive. Good thing, we tried another number because the van that they wanted us to use could not accommodate 16 people, so my cousin kept on looking at the directory online and found the cheaper rent a van that can also accommodate all of us. We were surprised though because it was too affordable than the first one maybe they also have a cheap auto insurance that's why it was not that costly so as expected we choose the van that fits our budget.

First we went to the cemetery where our Aunt Eve's and my father remains lies, right after we whispered a prayer for them. I tour them at Japanese Tunnel, there's nothing much to see there, but for me it was a historical place; it was a tunnel where many Filipino dies when they built it during the Japanese Era. We also went to the park and ate our dinner there, the kids had a blast playing at the play area while we were so busy chitchatting.

Wednesday Wickedness # 8: Ellen

I am back from a short hiatus, my cousins arrived on Friday and was too busy accommodating them since it has been a while we never seen each other. If it was not because of our other cousin's wedding we never had a reunion.

Today we picked Ellen for Wednesday Wickedness:





1. "I was coming home from kindergarten--well they told me it was kindergarten. I found out later I had been working in a factory for ten years. It's good for a kid to know how to make gloves." How old were you when you started working and what was your first job?

I was a working scholar when I was in college, I assist the teachers and students at Speech Laboratory and of every enrollment at Dean's office.

2. "My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was sixty. She's ninety-seven now, and we don't know where the hell she is." Tell us about your grandparents.

They died before I was born

3. "Procrastination isn't the problem, it's the solution. So procrastinate now, don't put it off." Do you procrastinate or are you on top of the situations?

I don't procrastinate, I usually do things that I should be done.

4. "Sometimes you can't see yourself clearly until you see yourself through the eyes of others." What would others say about you?

I am not sure, they have to tell me though

5. "The only thing that scares me more than space aliens is the idea that there aren't any space aliens. We can't be the best that creation has to offer. I pray we're not all there is. If so, we're in big trouble" Do you believe in life on other planets?

Maybe

6. "I'm a godmother, that's a great thing to be, a godmother. She calls me god for short, that's cute, I taught her that." Do you have a godchild?

Yup and he is so cute and a very handsome baby boy, the son of my BFF

7. "I don't understand the sizes anymore. There's a size zero, which I didn't even know that they had. It must stand for: 'Ohhh my God, you're thin.'" When was the last time that you were called too thin?

8. "I have the worst memory ever so no matter who comes up to me - they're just, like, 'I can't believe you don't remember me!" I'm like, 'Oh Dad I'm sorry!'" Who was the last person that you should have recognized but didn't?

A friend in college, and I always introduced him to my friend as Michael while his name is not Michael. Lol shame on me.

9. "I gotta work out. I keep saying it all the time. I keep saying I gotta start working out. It's been about two months since I've worked out. And I just don't have the time. Which uh..is odd. Because I have the time to go out to dinner. And uh..and watch tv. And get a bone density test. And uh.. try to figure out what my phone number spells in words." Do you work out? Have you ever joined a gym and quit almost immediately?

I quit immediately well I got too busy

10. 'We use 10 percent of our brains. Imagine how much we could accomplish if we used the other 60 percent." Do you feel that you utilize all your intelligence in every situation?

Maybe.

The Enhancement

I never thought I would write a blog about male enhancement. I really am shy about writing on this subject. But it seems that every time I turn on the television there is a commercial about it. Products like extenze claim to enhance the size of a certain part of a male. Well, I don’t know if I will talk to my husband about it or not, but I know of the claims of these types of products. If you could see my face now, it would be colored red from embarrassment. Hahahaha, but you know there are people who will try it and I wish them good luck. As for me, well I will to talk it over with my husband to see if he wants to try it.

Nostalgia # 6 : Communion

I am just maybe lucky that I have a daughter who keeps on reminding me of going to church. So even I get tired on Sunday, I felt guilty when she asked "Aren't we go to church today Ma?" or "Ma, let's attend mass today." That is why every Sunday even how I just wanted to stay at home and be lazy I just can't because my daughter here keeps on inviting us together to attend the holy mass.

Don't get me wrong; I am not complaining though, I am just amazed because of her early age she already knows the importance of spending the holy hour to our Almighty GOD. Last year, she was so excited to have her communion and take the holy Eucharist; she has wanted that since then.

Wednesday Wickedness # 7 : George Steinbrenner

Tomorrow, my cousins from the province will arrive for our other cousin's wedding on Saturday. So I was so busy buying things like a foam mattress, additional pillow and maybe a dining table mat and a plastic cover, I am not yet done though because I still have to buy a dress for me and the kids for the upcoming event. And before I would worry my expenses here let me post my entry today for Wednesday Wickedness, today we picked up George Steinbrenner.




1. "But why shouldn't I speak out? Don't you speak out in this country?" Do you speak out as often as you should?

When I am alone, lol it's hard to speak out when you have kids you are trying to protect from a possible threats.

2. "I am tough. Sometimes I'm unreasonable. I have to catch myself every once in a while." Are you ever tough and unreasonable?

I am tough and ok yeah I am sometimes unreasonable, well nobody is perfect right?

3. "I haven't always done a good job, and I haven't always been successful - but I know that I have tried." Do you believe that sometimes you learn more from a failure than a success?

Yup, it would be your lead not to do the same mistake again

4. "Winning is the most important thing in my life, after breathing. Breathing first, winning next." Do you feel that you always have to win?

Nope, but it is better to be a loser than to quit in the middle of the game, at least you've tried.

5. "It is unbelievable to me that the highest-paid team in baseball would start the season in such a deep funk.” Do you think money always buys greatness?

A big no!

6. "I take my last phone call at home at about 11pm." What time is too late to call you?

9:00 p.m., I guess

7. "Don't talk to me about aesthetics or tradition. Talk to me about what sells and what's good right now." Do you think tradition matters?

It depends though

8. "And what the American people like is to think the underdog still has a chance." Do you tend to root for the underdog?

Uhmmmm, I am not quiet sure what to answer, wahhhhhhhhhh

9. "I don't think I ever could exceed my father's successes. He was a completely satisfied man, he knew what he wanted to accomplish and he accomplished it. I did do a lot, though, to try to please him." Do you ever feel that you want to exceed your parents successes?

Not at all, I have my own skills and I am happy of what I have.

10. "I'm really 95 percent Mr. Rogers, and only 5 percent Oscar the Grouch." In terms of cartoon characters, who are you like?

I am not sure, I might ask my kids though lol

It Goes On and Off Again

My Internet connection is acting up again, it goes on and off the whole day, I already called my Internet Service Provider to ask them what is the latest news of my connection, do they have to put another 10 feet of antennae again so my connection would be stable? One staff already figured out and was able to reconnect my connection this morning yet after a moment or two just when I hang up on him, my connection went crazy as it gets and it continued until tonight.

I just arrived from a friend then I went in front of my laptop, hoping I could click and post without any interruption and guess what, I got disconnected several times. So I have to call them over again to inquire what is the heck going on with my connection and so it explained to me that their base had some issues and they are trying their best to get the signal back for us. I was relieved I thought I have to pay again for another 10 feet of antennae.

Wearing Her Aunt's Eyeglass

One night while Mj was fast asleep, Faith was having a fun time with the eyeglass of sister Merlyn. When I look at my back, I saw her trying to fit the eyeglass. If ever her aunt would see this, she must laugh so hard or would be worried that she might break this one again. Faith already damaged her eyeglass before including the eyeglass of my husband.

Its wrong fit this time but she took it and wore it properly

Now this is how to wear an eyeglass

Do I look like a teacher this time?

Saturday 9 # 12 : Go Your Own Way

I am so thankful that Mj is already well from having fever yesterday, when I found out that she has a fever, I immediately send her to her doctor. It was only mild though and he advised me to give my daughter a rest from swimming until her sinusitis would be gone. For now, I didn't allow her to go to her tutor for English and Math, I will just be the one to visit Kumon to exchange her worksheets, but I have to finish the Saturday 9 Go Your Own Way first.




1. When was the last time you were told to go your own way?

I can't remember anymore, it was my ex though so there's no big deal hehehe

2. What one experience has strengthened your character the most so far?

When I was told that I don't care about them and I am boasting myself, and that I haven't done anything good for them. It really pisses me off and told them if I haven't done anything good, they were not living with me.

3. What's your favorite thing to do on a rainy day?

Blogging

4. How long can you go without your cell phone?

I think I can't

5. Do you wish you were somewhere else right now?

Yeah, with my husband in Maryland perhaps

6. Of all the people you've ever known, who have you most feared?

No one

7. Do people tell you that you look your age?

Nope, some would thought I am only 23 hahahhaa

8. Your ex shows up randomly at your house, what do you say?

Get lost!

9. Do you believe everyone deserves a second chance?

It depends...

As she gets older

Having clean clear and soft skin is something we can all appreciate. Unsightly acne can mark your looks and cause embarrassment especially in teenagers. There are new acne treatments out there to help clear up acne and to keep your skin soft, smooth and blemish free. I hope that MJ will not have problems with acne as she gets older, but if she does I will do my best to get the best acne treatments for her. I don’t experience having those things when I was still a teenager, thanks to my sister because they bought me a soap that is a hypo allergenic and could kill germs in our skin.

But as years slid by and we’re getting old, we could not escape those blemishes and allergies in our skin. Thus, face spa is a must; I am still waiting for my husband to come over though so he could treat me with those including the whole body massage at the body spa.

A Phone Call

I just received a phone call from Crown Regency Hotel, they said that someone recommended my name and that they would include me to their raffle which will draw on December, and if ever they will be able to pick my name, I could get a free hotel accommodation; it would be three days and two nights for the whole family. The lady said that it is their promo for December; I hope I could win it though and I hope my husband could join us there. But I just wonder who was that person gave me my name to them, I thought they have seen my name on their client's list since we stayed there during Faith's baptismal but when I verified it to them as to where they got my name, the in charge said someone recommended me to them, it is just so weird.

The New Reality Show

There's a new reality show in TV that would air in due time, it is called the "The Big Loser". My eyes grew big with how huge they can be I wonder why they have to audition themselves to lose weight, why don’t they buy weight loss products instead if they really wanted to get rid of those unwanted fats. Well, one contestant said she wanted to be seen on TV aside from getting fit. Maybe that was really the reason behind for them, to become famous and a millionaire at the same time.

Anyway, let us see if this reality show would success as the others and how effective they can be to help the contestant to slim down, and if they could also enter as one famous celebrity in show business.

Mommy Moments : Kids and Bags

Mj was not able to go to school today, she wanted though because she has a long quiz today but she looks so weak and when I touched her forehead she is so hot, when I put her the temperature on her armpit, it was 38.5 so I decided to let her rest and later we will go to her doctor.

The themes for today’s Mommy Moments are bags, so there we go!

My baby sometimes used this bag whenever we went out for malling, but I just can't find this bag maybe it was left at the old house.

Mj's pouch whenever they have a long quiz or examination day, and on the other side is her barbie bag she used when she goes to school.

I already featured this picture last week for Mommy Moments- School, and since I was not able to take any picture today, I might just show these bags again for today's theme.

He got pissed off

I and my friend wanted to try the ab workout one day, so when we went out from our work, we looked for a gym that could assist us with the equipments they presented. The instructor gave us a short details of how we could use it, when we start doing it, he asks us to warm up, do some stretching and the like. On the other hand, as we were so tired and so sleepy at that time because we just went out from a night shift, we were not fully attentive to him. I guess he was pissed off because he just left us, doing our own thing.

It was a lesson learned to us that if we want to slim down effectively or have a nice abs, we must listen to every word of the instructor. Since then, whenever I went to a gym, I never hired any gym instructor for me; I just go with aerobics session or do a treadmill on my own.

Nostalgia # 5 : How I wish...

My eldest daughter just had a sore eyes and I am not feeling well today. I send Mj to a specialist yesterday so she was able to go to school this afternoon, right now she is washing dishes and washes her pouch for the school tomorrow.

I and Faith went out this afternoon as well after we send Mj to school to get my niece repaired shoes in downtown. I also paid the cable company so my youngest daughter could still watch her favorite cartoons in Disney channel. When we arrive home I message my niece that her shoes are already available to pick at home. She dropped here at the house to get it, we also smack some snacks while waiting for my eldest daughter to come. It would be more fun if my niece could stay over but I don't know why they won't allow that, sometimes I questioned myself haven't I done anything good for her? I know she misses us much for she has been with me ever since but because of some conflicts, she was affected.

This picture was taken when she was still on her 4th grade, we had fun tried our new camera and pose in front of it.

When we decided to have a studio shoot, she was on 6th grade during those times. How I wish I could adopt her and bring her to wherever we go, but we just can't.

Do not abuse

My husband’s friend, Jerry, loves to smoke cigars. When they had company meetings in Canada a few years back, Jerry’s goal was to find a place that sold find Cuban cigars. Well they found one. Finding a good premium cigar in some areas of the United States can be hard. Jerry is always appreciative when he can get them. He even tries to get my husband to join him in a smoke now and then. But he never succeeded my husband never smoke or never attempt to, well when you abuse using it, your health will suffer. So when you puff it, make sure you know the consequences ahead.

Wednesday Wickedness # 6 : Robert Pattinson

Wednesday here again and because I was antsy to watch The Eclipse, I and my daughter waited for hours just to get inside the cinema, Robert Pattinson in today's topic reminds me how he looked so adorably awesome in the movie, well at least for me.

Robert Pattinson in Wednesday Wickedness

1. "I don't really see the point in washing your hair. If you don't care if your hair's clean or not then why would you wash it?" How often do you wash your hair?

Once a day during bath or shower.

2. "I take way too long to get dressed, like way too long. But only for things like shows or if I have to do public appearances. Like, I’m ridiculous, I’ll keep getting changed and getting changed and then I’ll just put on the same thing I wore the day before." Do you take longer to dress for a special event?

Nope as long as it was prepared the night before. And oh I only have few dresses.

3. "My dad's a car dealer, but I grew up in London, so I always say I don't drive…I get driven. I got a driving lesson in Oregon, and then I bought a car in L.A. and I basically learned how to drive by people honking at me. I'm terrible at driving." Are you a good driver?

I don't know how to drive.

4. "I don't spend any money. The only thing I've really bought is my car, which cost $1,500 and keeps exploding. It would be nice to buy a house for my parents, but at the same time my parents are so comfortable where they live; they would probably just feel like it was a burden. I wear the same clothes every day and the only thing I used to splurge on was DVDs." If you had his money, what would be the first thing you spent it on?

My parents died already :(

5. "I aspire to be Jack Nicholson. I love every single mannerism. I used to try and be him in virtually everything I did, I don't know why. I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest when I was about 13, and I dressed like him. I tried to do his accent. I did everything like him. I think it's kind of stuck with me." Who is your favorite actor?

Robert Pattinson hahaha!!! Only for now I don't know yet tomorrow lol and Oh I so love Clive Owen.

6. "Someone stole my shoelaces once from my shoes. I still wear them and never put laces in them - they're like my trademark shoes now!" Have you ever changed your appearance because of a random happenstance?

I don't change my appearance it is always the same ever since

7. "I never really considered myself attractive. I was always kind of gangly in school." Do you consider yourself attractive?

Nope especially I don't have the height haist

8. "I definitely want to record an album, direct a film and start my own religion. I definitely wouldn’t have to pay taxes anymore.” If you started your own religion, what would it be like?

Never in my imagination would I start my own religion, my family is always devoted to Roman Catholic

9. "I do bear some similarities in the sense that I’m not good at romance. I also think I lack basic finesse when it comes to women. I give up too easily even if I’m very attracted to someone." Have you ever given up too easily in the game of love?

Uhmmmm think, think, think...

10. " I don’t want to disappoint girls who might think I’m very cool and smooth, which I’m not, I’m afraid. I’m still quite shy, although that seems to be something of an attraction for women." Are you, or have you ever been attracted to shy people?

My husband is a shy person, would that explain well?

I hope I could win this $300 Worth Brand New COACH Satchel Bag Contest to replace my other coach bag which was given to me as a wedding gift last year. Oh!

Enlighten Him

I and my friend chatted online last night, a moment later she abruptly asked me if it could be possible that a father would get turn on to his daughter. I bluntly said that he is sick and he needs some counseling. My friend said she just chatted a guy like that, she said that the guy doesn't have a wife anymore; she died when the kid was only 4 years old. The kid lived with him and she is now 12 years old, she sometimes wore underwear and a shirt and whenever he saw her, he got turn on.

I told my friend an option to report him through YM but I thought it would only be through webcam and they are not using webcam. The guy left when my friend did not talk to him anymore, he even told my friend that she is mean because she did not help him. My husband even told me to advise my friend not to chat with the guy anymore, but I am concern about the kid, she didn't know that she is already being abused by her father in some way. Oh God, please guide the child and enlighten the mind of the father.

It is not healthy anymore

My niece is fond of watching The America's Top Models, whenever she goes her to visit, she really begged Faith to change the channel so she could get update with what happen to the show. I watched with her sometimes, and oh yeah all the bodies of the contestants were so awesome, and they posed so well, I wonder if they are taking slimming pills so they could be skinny as that. For me, all of them are capable of winning but oh well, the judges have to choose only one. There are times that some of the models were fighting; they ended up throwing some nasty words towards one another. And this is I hated the most with reality shows; they could not be friendly at times, all of them wanted to won.

On the other hand, it is indeed a contest; you win some you lose some. You could walk out to the door with still upholding your dignity and leave but some could not just help it, they cried so much and even said that it is their dreams to become the big winner, they are almost there but it was stopped and they became frustrated and depressed about it, which is not healthy anymore.

Saturday 9 # 11 : Make Me Say It Again, Girl

This supposed to be posted this afternoon but my mini ran out of battery already so I didn't have a choice but to hide it inside my bag. Anyway, I guess I am not that late though since it is still Saturday in some part of the world.

With no further ado, here's my entry:



1. Do you feel that you need to keep repeating yourself when talking to a particular person?

Yes, and guess what he always told me please be patient.

2. It's July. Do you have anything special planned?

Yup, I will go to Manila again this month to meet my hubby at the airport, I hope there's nothing hindrance to it.

3. Who is your big celebrity crush?

The guy next door, a local celebrity Sam Milby

4. Tell us about a local restaurant you are sure we'd love.

Jacksridge, because they serve a lot of Filipino foods that you might get bloated thereafter.

5. Tell us about the shyest person that you deal with regularly.

I guess none, on the second thought, maybe my husband because he is somewhat shy at other people when he would first meet them,

6. What is your vision of heaven and hell?

Heaven is where you feel love, cared and pampered endlessly.

Hell is where the fire eats you alive and the place where you shout loudly with grieving but no one could ever hear you.

7. What is your neighborhood like?

Quiet

8. What's your favorite cook-out food?

It is always Sea Foods

9. When was the last time that you saw fireworks?

When I was in Mall of Asia, they always set fireworks there at 9 p.m.

Vaccinations and Such

It was unplanned but we did, Mj supposed to be vaccinated today before her swimming but when we learned that the vaccine will cause us a thousand of bucks, we choose to watch the Eclipse movie. I just realized now that Mj have to get a vaccination with her Pneumococcal very soon because we easily get colds or cough, one of the parents at the swimming suggested for a flu vaccine because it is very effective. Her daughter now does not easily caught with those viruses because she send her to a Doctor for a flu vaccine last month, I might also have to consider for that vaccination and Faith as well.

We were talking about vaccination this afternoon and one parent mentioned about human growth hormone injection and its supplements, she said we might also want to consider those things since some of us are running forties already and obviously are aging. Well, I still have to search what is really about since she just gave us short details of the benefits of those, my friend was even confused of what she was talking about. But next week we really have to be vaccinated especially my kids because the weather here is so unpredictable as it gets so hot in the morning and you are dripping with sweats then later it would rain so hard.

Mommy Moments : School Day

mommy moments


I almost could not update this blog today since I have to rush at Mj's school this morning because she message me that the stick that she brought for her project in Science is not the right one. So I went out early in the morning to buy her a Popsicle stick and I gather all her swimming materials so I don't have to go back home for it, I just have to wait her at school while doing the task assigned to me. I did not brought my hard disk where all my pictures were stored because I am having a hard time to put it back to this laptop. It will not detect the USB and I have to figure what is going on, so to be safe from techie stuff I might just leave it at home.

Moreover, I am so happy that I am back to do some Meme. My morning is not that hectic anymore, after Mj is off to school I am free to do things in my computer. My eldest daughter is a bit busy this year since we pursued her swimming. She also has a Kumon to attain to every Tuesday and Wednesday after class, her training for swimming is on Monday and Friday. Saturday morning would be her Kumon and afternoon would be her swimming but even how hectic her schedule this school year, she never complained at all in fact she is the one who does the cooking of our rice and heating her water for bath, don't worry because I am always around when she does chores like that.

These are her books at school, I took this picture just this morning when she was off to school, she said they don't have to bring books since they will have a long quiz today.

Her worksheets in Kumon and her bag,
I also have included her notebooks she used for school

Her swimming suits, bag, cap and goggle

Nostalgia # 4 : First Image


Photobucket


Sister was not able to come here today because she has to purchase some items for the store. It is so nice to hear that the store I gave to them, is blooming and working out just fine, I don't care if they would give me back my investment as long as they would keep it alive, and that’s absolutely fine with me. I hope it would help them so they could send their kids to school and buy some stuff for their kids.

On the other note, since she was not here, I am here alone with Faith at home. Mj is off to school and said they will have swimming for P.E. today, I wanted to check her at school but I just can't because it's raining. Faith is behaving so well, thanks’ to Disney Channel, it keeps her so busy. We had numbers of activity here at home, we had fun trying to color her coloring book awhile ago but she keeps on messing up the color. I finish doing my house chores with a little help from my baby, time flies so fast. Faith brought up some joy in our lives, especially to her father.
