Mamu

Last Sunday we went to Tagaytay for a trip. We are supposed to visit my tita and lola in Batangas but change our agenda. After breakfast all of us prepared. All kids take a bath first and then the adults. At first we are thinking of place where the kids can have fun. We are thinking of going to MOA, Southmall, luneta, park near our place... until we decided to go to Tagaytay. My mom cooked rice and bring some plates and utensils, we are going to have our lunch there. We end up eating in a restaurant with kubo and then went to Olivares to hunt clothes in ukay-ukay. There's a playground for kids where David and Joshua stay while we are hunting for clothes. We also both angry birds slippers for Rhaine and a small angry bird playset for David. Out of excitement David open his toy and when we got home he find out that the red angry bird is missing. He and his dad look inside the van but its not there. The toy only comes with two birds, yellow and red. That makes him upset but I told him not to since he still have some angry birds toy in our house. He is still requesting for an angry bird toy for Christmas.. oh well!

Yesterday was my son's last day before their sem-break. They have an activity called Scouting Investiture Ceremony. Its an event for girls and boys scouts. It makes me remember my girls scout days when I was small. I was not able to attend due to work so its my hubby who joined him. We are not aware that we need to bring someone to be his sponsor so its my husband who acted as one. I was able to see his pictures and videos and I can see the smile in his face while marching and singing. They also had a fun play after the ceremony. I hope next year I would be able to be with him for the boy scout event.

I am very happy and proud of my little boy. I saw the results of his exam last week and he was able to perfect 3 out of the their 6 exams. The other subjects he only had few mistakes. I was not able to take note of the subjects so I cant post what they are (hehe). I am looking forward for better and good grades. Sorry my son if mommy is sometimes hot tempered when reviewing or teaching you. But no matter what, I will always be here to help and guide you. Love you son!

It's BER month already and 82 more days if I'm not mistaken its already Christmas. My son who is getting fond of angry birds is requesting for a miniature play set of it. We saw it first at Clipper in Alabang Town Center which cost P1k. We also saw it in RFC which I think its only P600 or P800 not really sure. Its battery operated so you can hear sounds of the bird when you throw them using the sling. It comes with blocks that you can put together and pigs as the enemy. Well I am still thinking if I will buy this for him. I still have time to decide on what to buy him for Christmas.

My son David loves playing games at Tom's World. Mostly he plays those that give out tickets. Those tickets can be exchange to different items depending on the points. When he went out before with his dad he was able to get 2 angry bird sharpeners, one red and one blue. He enjoys playing with it and he even bring it at school. Yesterday I was reviewing him for their periodical exam, something bad happen. He was so playful while we are studying. He cant stand in one position, he keeps on moving around and playing. I only  have like an hour of sleep from work and was tired already. I told him several times to behave and listen, I loosen up my temper and threw one of his angry bird sharper and it broke. While he was crying, I feel guilt in me for doing that. I knew that he value that toy so much. I explained to him his mistakes and why I get mad. I also told him how lucky he is for having a mom who works hard for his needs and what I am doing is for his own good. At the end I also apologized for my behavior. We end up hugging each other and went back to studying. Lord please give me more patient and help me raise my kid well.

Last Saturday was the class card distribution at my son's school. Before the cards was given the parents were first given a seminar by Ptr. Ody about parenting. I learned a lot from it. Parenting is very hard but very fulfilling. Our kids are gift from God. I remember he mention about the message in the bible "I am the vine and your are the branches." He relate this to family, God being the vine and parents the branches and kids as the fruit. God should be the center of our parenting to be able to bear good fruit.

Anyway their class card looks different. It shows no numbers but C(consistent), P(progress) and N(not yet) on different skills of the student. You will also see VS (very satisfactory), S (satisfactory) etc. per each category. I wonder what is his real grades in numbers, we are told before we could ask the teacher for that. He may not be the brightest in their class but for me he is the best, my beloved child.

Though tiring I had a good time being with my son with their school field trip. The first itinerary was to visit the Doll Joy Factory. There we saw different kinds of dolls they manufacture and how they are made. They showcase beautiful dolls. They even let the kids know how dolls are being made. I find out that they also made the popular Precious Memory Dolls.

For the past two years it is my husband who comes with David for field trip. This time I will be coming with him. I already filed for a vacation leave for this. Last weekend I already bought some snacks which we will be bringing. I lost the paper given by the school showing where they will visit. Anyway I hope I would not forget our camera to take pics. I will treasure this day. I knew when he grew up, he will no longer depend on us and will have his own life. But no matter what happens I will always be here for you son. 

Next week Harrell Horne Integrated School will be celebrating Buwan ng Wika. My son was asked to prepare a kamiso tsino , yellow pajama and a scarf. I guess they are going to dance or maybe recite a poem. Last year they wore a red pajama and scarf. I hope I can attend the said event.
