Stressful

Dawter T likes to play and watch tv --- a lot!!! That sometimes she hurries her school work to be able to...

Problem is, when we check her school work, she usually has to redo. With that comes a bit of a sermon from me and her dad.

I feel that she gets too stressed... The education system here is like "matira, matibay"... I was telling a friend and my sister last night, I never studied when I was in grade school but I still managed to get decent grades. I just can't imagine that my kids had to burn the midnight oil to study and do homework. To top it all, (I am guilty of this), push them hard to study.

With Dawter T's case, I guess it's not only me and Pre, even Bebi A adds to her woes. Imagine Dawter T almost crying because we had to practice her additions and subtractions over and over again... Then, this little tweet will tell her ate "Ate, if you don't study, you will go back to my school!!!" With a slang "Sige ka" in the end...

Que horror!

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!

At 5

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
