Birthday Gift

It's my birthday today. I want it simple. I didn't want a party. I just want to eat pancit bihon which I will cook, fried pork and maybe, if luck (ehem Sister C) is with me, another Lana cake.

All these came true. And, I wish to thank my family for it.

There's just this incident which touched my heart and melted it. Around 4pm, I got a call from Dawter T, she asked me to spell Bebi A's name. I asked why, she said, she's making a birthday card for me. And it's supposedly a surprise. Oh ok, so much for the surprise.

Around 5pm, I called home. I talked to her again. She said she's making a card with stars and that I shouldn't say it out loud coz it's a surprise. Haha. The difference it'll make to Dawter T.

Anyway, fast forward to my arrival at home. Ate A told me that Dawter T has another surprise for me. She cleaned our bathroom with ------ tissue! She said that Dawter T told her that "she worked, and she worked and she worked!" With matching pawis pa ha. I can only just imagine. She didn't even take her afternoon nap. And, she did all these for me.

I am still wondering how she figured out that the bathroom is the one place in the house which is very important to me. But she did. So with half of a tissue roll left, I am torn of wanting to keep it for memories. Or maybe just use it to show her that it doesn't take a roll of tissue to brighten someone's day.

I got the best birthday gift ever!

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
