Coins

It was year 2001 when I read an article in on the Chicken Soup for the Soul books about (I think), a husband and a wife, putting a coin on their coin bank everytime they kiss (arghhh I cannot remember, but something to that effect). They used it to go to Hawaii.

I find it interesting so I asked Pre if he wants to do it, we'll spend it on our honeymoon.

So we followed but we just put all our S$1 coins we have at the end of the day. We still have our very first coin bank, anAnlene tin can which we have until now.

We didn't use it for our honeymoon coz it was not enough hehe but we used it for Dawter T's first birthday party. We paid off our caterer using that.

We now have another coin bank which we're trying to fill up, this time is for Bebi A's birthday. I think it was not as much as the first one but it'll still help us pay some of the bills for Bebi A's party.

It's really exciting to see it fill up. (Syempre low EQ ako, parati ko sinisilip!) And somehow it also gives me comfort that we have coins nearby in case we run out of cash hehehe

She's 2!

Busy

Bebi A : Daddy, can you make me an airplane? Daddy : Later Ava, I am busy Bebi A : You always say you're busy, you're hurting my feelings... She then put her face down on the sofa. Drama queen!

Today is the eve of Dawter T's 5th birthday. I couldn't help but reminisce about how she grew up from this jaundiced baby that I had to leave in the hospital to a girl who is vibrant and full of questions and who wouldn't want to be left alone. She's Cinderella's number 1 fan but is now discovering Kim Possible and Totally Spies. She likes to play with the computer, she sometimes uses it to draw using MS Paint or to surf Barbie's website. She doesn't want to be called baby because she's now an older sister. She likes to sleep holding my hand. She loves scrapbooking with me and my friends. She's very good at doodling and was kidding my Mareng M that she'll have her own line soon. HeHe... She's even better at stamping than me. She likes school and doesn't want to skip it even if she's sick. She doesn't sleep early. She sleeps at 11pm (the earliest). She's a very picky eater. Takes her own sweet time to finish a meal. But, eats
