yesterday was the 45th birthday of my Canada-based sister, Chu and the 15th birthday of her youngest child, Vince. we celebrated by hearing mass at Redemptorist church and having the kids' favorite(st) Pizza Hut stuffed crust Hawaiian pizza with extra ham. 

praying that the Lord will continue to bless them with good health and that He will always provide for all their needs.

 yesterday, too, was the first day i drove both M and Z to school. it is quite a challenge driving two kids whose schools are on opposite ends and with only a 30-minute interval in their class schedule. i was very happy and thankful that they woke up and got themselves ready early enough for us to be able to leave home at exactly 7:00 A.M. we made it to M's school at 7:20 and to Z's at 7:39. i was too happy about it, i gave each of them a prize.

they're currently crazy over anything Handy Manny-ish :)

'me-time'

i spent 12 days alone, away from the hubby and kids. i spent those days in my hometown in Surigao and stayed overnight in Davao. i had a really great time, it made me realize how i badly needed that break!

sharing some photos of my 12-day me-time:

LSS-ing

We can't play this game anymore, but
Can we still be friends?
Things just can't go on like before, but
Can we still be friends?

We had something to learn
Now it's time for the wheel to turn
Things are said one by one
Before you know it's all gone

Let's admit we made a mistake, but
Can we still be friends?
Heartbreak's never easy to take, but
Can we still be friends?

It's a strange sad affair
Sometimes seems like we just don't care
Don't waste time feeling hurt
We've been through hell together

La la la la, la la la la
Can we still be friends?
Can we still get together sometime?

We awoke from our dream
Things are not always what they seem
Memories linger on
It's like a sweet sad old song

happy 9th, Bea!

wow! has it been 9 months?! 

Beakins, you're getting more adorable each day!
