A lot of people are getting married today or giving birth. They said that it's a lucky day! *wink*

It's the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics. Don't laugh but things like that gets me worked up --- I cry. I am too sensitive for my own good. A few days back, there was torch ceremony and when I saw Yao Ming, pool of tears started to form in my eyes hehehe. I guess deep down, it feels so good to see people coming together as one. (Sana parating ganun). I pray for world peace!

Then, Singapore also have its own celebration tomorrow. It's the 43rd National Day! In the bus today, there are already a lot of people wearing red. Dawter T is wearing red shirt and white shorts today. They have a celebration at school. In fact, she will be singing "Singapore Town" along with classmates (they sing this song every year).

A few days ago, Dawter T asked me if there's a Philippines Day! Hmmm, I only know of Philippines Independence Day so I told her June 12. (Tama ba na yun ang sinabi ko?)

For my friends in Singapore, yahoo, 1 day is added to our leave pool! Yahoo!

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!

Me! Me! Me!

Last night, I created an LO using the picture below when Bebi A happened to see it. She touched it and said "Me?!" "No, it's me!" I told her. It was really me when I was Bebi A's age. The similarities will not be able to deny that Bebi A is my daughter hahaha I just hope that my bubbly and sunny bebi will not get the mom's sumpong(s). This is one of the few baby pics that I have. I used to have 3 baby albums but one of the worst floods that hit Pinas also took away my memories. Now, this is Bebi A.

Creativity

Dawter T called me up and told me that Bebi A tore her art and made a monster out of the girl in the picture. I know that it's not being mean. Bebi A doesn't have a mean bone in her body. She just don't understand. I talked to Bebi A. Asked her to kiss and make up with her Ate, She did. Ate A told me that she went up to Dawter T and kissed her, then asked "Is this better, Ate?" Awwww... Dawter T's "smashed" art was one of her best. I was really impresed. If only I have taken a picture of it this morning. It was really beautiful. It was a portrait of a girl, by the way. I hope that Dawter T can still replicate it. I know that not all kids are alike. And, my daughters have their own endearing qualities. One's art is different from the other. Dawter T has the potential (not because I'm her mom, ok ok, it maybe because I'm her mom hahaha) and Bebi A's, well, let's just say abstract. Hehe.
