"Hello old friend!" 

This is her with her old friend Maye. They used to go to same school until Maye transferred.

A while ago, I took another picture but this time with her new friends

They are going home tomorrow and I can't wait to fetch her.

I'm a proud mama!
Pretty Ariel won first place in a competition for the Cluster Cultural Meet English Declamation Category.
I was not expecting anything because this past few days, I wasn't able to help and train her as Sweet Cinderella is still in the hospital.
But still, Pretty Ariel made it.

Congratulation baby! Mommy is proud of you!

Clock strikes 12...
I'm 30
But!
I don't feel like celebrating it.
Not because I'm getting older.
But because I am celebrating here in the hospital.

Sweet Cinderella's pediatrician decided to continue her medication here in the hospital.
We have no choice but to stay here.
I feel bad, because I never really like hospital.

As of this moment I am waiting for my frog prince to arrive. Just as I've said here, I bought a prepaid Smart plug-it  and brought my mom's laptop here in the hospital so I can work.

My temporary working area

 But I dont feel like working because I am not comfortable working seeing dextrose and being disturbed every now and then by a nurse.

As of now, what I do is wait for the frog prince to arrive and hoping he can make my day better.

Last August 26, my daughters' school celebrated the yearly Buwan ng Wika Language Month. They divided the programs into 2. During the morning, they played "Laro ng lahi" (Filipino Indigenous Game). Ok, Sweet Cinderella didn't join the game "sack race". I guess she's not in the mood. But Pretty Ariel had fun with their "Going to market". Going to market is a game where the participants are divided into equal members. The idea is similar to relay game. Their goal is be able to go to market ahead of the competing group. One by one group members will wear bandanna and skirt, (even boys wear these) carry a basket and an umbrella, then head to market. A market is a certain area where participants will go then return to the starting line. Once the participant reach the market, she goes back to the starting line where her group mate is waiting. She will pass the bandanna, skirt, umbrella and basket to the next member and repeat the process. The first team who can go to the market will be declared the winner.

Pretty Ariel joined the game. I wasn't able to watch them because first, I have to work during that time. Second, I was preparing since there would be an afternoon program and I have to be there.

Anyway, here is the picture of Pretty Ariel: ( Just click to enlarge)

Pretty Ariel is not sporty. She is very graceful. That is why, I really can't believe she joined the game. Their team won the game that day. :)

Congratulations baby!

Dear Sweetheart,

I know how much you want to join that singing contest. I've seen it in your eyes.
Forgive me if I didn't do anything about it.
You just don't know how painful it was for me.
But I want you to learn your lesson, and I pray that someday you'll understand.

My sweet Cinderella...
You know mommy is always here for you. But I want you to see that when you want something, you just can't decide to get it whenever you want to. You have to prepare yourself and try to give the best that you have. There are things in life that you have to be worthy of.

If only you've said it earlier, you know I wont let you down. I will give you everything I have, to give you the best chance to succeed. But just out of of the blue, you said you just want it--on the spot! I dont want you to feel humiliated because of lack of preparation compared to other participants. So I hope baby you understand, why I didn't let you to...

Remember this baby, I love you so much.
