my little boss.

He still doesn't want to go to sleep, wants another round of milk and wants a back scratch. He doesn't want me to lie on the bed because he wants to lie down on my lap. He wakes his littlle brother because of his wailing for milk like there's no way he's going to sleep without another round of it. He wants my blanket and calls it a "tapis", requests for his small toy car so he can hold it to sleep. He's almost by a tiny bit off to dreamland... but he heard Dadilo's car had arrived. Now he wants to go out and his sleepiness is nowhere to be found.

He's up, laughing heartily while playing Zuma with his Momila...

happy ME day!

I celebrated my day with my bestfriend, my woman, my kangolkid, Totingbats. Momi and Dadi agreed I should have my "me-day" on my birthday. Read : yes, we will take care of the babies while you go have fun. 

First stop, ukay-ukay adventure! Phew! Great kicks, wonder finds. Way better when you're doing it with your best friend.

With a sunblock, a panic-bought bikini, zero towels we head out to the beach! What can we do? The dagat is calling us. You know my best friend, she's a water creature so it's like it's her day too. I'm glad I gave you that tan you are craving for so long.

And the best-est part of my happy ME day, for the first time in my whole 29 years here on earth, I went snorkeling and kayaking! Whohoooooo! I can't wait to do it again :) 

thank you momi!

Surprise surprise!

 

I got these adorable fabrics from my mother for my birthday. Sweet sweet momi, she knows me too well. Thank you momi! Now that I'm all set, I need to bring my little dream of tahi-tahi come true.

the last of twenty-something.

I'm officially at the end of being a twenty-something. 

I think I need to have a list of things to do before I reach the big Three-Zero. 

Or I think I don't. I just need to be me - MORE. :) 

Thank you Universe for giving me another year of being part of your grand story. 

*blowing 29 proud candles! whoooo!*

I'm forgetting...

He told the following story about a young couple who had one little boy and a new baby. The little boy wanted to be left alone with the baby, but the parents were afraid. They had heard of jealous children hitting new siblings, and they didn't want the baby hurt. 

"No, no," they said. And "Not yet."

And also: "Why do you want to be with him? What are you going to do?"

"Nothing. I just want to be alone with him."

He begged for days. He was so insistent that the parents finally agreed. There was an intercom in the baby's room. They decided that they could listen, and if the baby cried, if the little boy hit the baby, they could rush into the room and snatch the infant up. So, the little boy went in, approached the crib. Alone. 

He came up to the newborn baby, and over the intercom they heard him whisper, "Tell me about God. I'm forgetting."

Happy Easter everyone! :)
