2008's memories

Until now, I couldn't come up with my 2009 resolutions sans stating the obvious hehehe 2008 has been a great year for us and I wanted to hold on to that...

Family Matters.

We've been blessed with a home we can call our own. No more landlord battles. And, we wouldn't feel like crying every month when we're paying our over priced rent. We're all happy with the new place. It took some getting used to but we're very comfortable now.

We found good schools for both Dawter T and Bebi A. Dawter T is starting Primary school while Bebi A's stepping into Nursery. They are both going to Catholic schools.

Papa and Mama came to Singapore to help us out with Dawter T. We feel blessed that the two girls were able to spend time with them.

Tita E and Tito B came with their children and spent a week touring around Singapore. Those were one of the best weeks of my 2008.


Work.

Pre is still with the "bus" company. Hehe. Though commuting from our new place to his office takes a long time, he's braving it out every morning as he wakes up at 6 and comes home before 8pm.

I changed jobs again mid-year. Seems to me that I've been doing this for the past 3 years. The new company has been very good to me. It opened a lot of opportunities and also met really nice people. Hopefully, I get to stay longer this time despite that the On-Call phone is giving me sleepless nights when the US team goes to work. *wink*

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.
