Sisa at Chinatown

Though I've lived here for 8 years, I have never really been to the other parts of Chinatown aside from People's Park or the mrt.

Mareng M brought me there and opened my eyes to a lot of goodies. We went there to piece a costume for me that will look "Filipina" (our company's DnD is on Saturday and the theme is Around the World). Managed to find an "el cheapo" peasant blouse that has an overlay of a "non-Pina" Barong material.

I wanted to go for Maria Clara look but I think Sisa is more plausible (I got the loudest laugh from my classmates when I portrayed Sisa for our declamation piece in my 2nd year HS - the laugh was even before I spoke nyahahaha so believable, I guess).

The question --- is it Sisa before she lost Crispin and Basilio, or the Sisa after? Haha.

Nyamy Nyamy

Our Bebe A is at the stage of being cheeky and endearing.  She can speak so many words now, some clear, some not.  Hehehe.  She likes to sing as well.  She actually has a good tone.  One of the songs that she likes is the one from Wiggles --- Fruit Salad.  Her version though is : Mom : Fruit Salad Bebe A :  Nyamy Nyamy (Yummy Yummy)

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!

Confession

Being a Mom.  Sometimes I feel as I am not cut out for it. Too much work.  Too much responsibility.  Too much worry. Worry that Ate T is taking the bus today.  Ate A's tooth is still in there and the new one has already come out.  Baby A has colds and is screaming and wants to cuddle. Sometimes it leaves me breathless. But When I pick up Ate T from our meeting place, I feel so proud of her because she has become independent and can commute.  Ate A's tenacity in wiggling her tooth and she's now toothless, doesn't need to go to the dentist to have it removed.  And, Baby A despite her colds still has appetite and it just feels good to hug her. God has showered me with so much love for giving me 3 wonderful girls.  It feels good being a mommy. Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Mommies!
