Precious Time

Gosh! Gosh Abelgosh! (corny!) It's half of the year already and I only have 3 posts.  (so busy? or so tamad?) Sometimes, there are lots of thoughts running my mind but because of laziness to write, I wasn't able to put it here. (sayang)

SY 2015-2016 just started last month and due to "quiz" season again for our Kuya Kiel, it seems that we're on war whenever we review for his quizzes.  I admit that my patience is being tested and most of the time I can't control it anymore which lead to nanay-son misunderstanding.  That happened on my birthday that I felt guilty about what happened during our review session earlier on that day.  I can't sleep and I was bothered that Kuya Kiel sees me as a monster mom again! (I cried a lot.  I need to control my temper and have more patience.  - THAT'S THE CHALLENGE.)

I said "Sorry" to Kuya Kiel and promised that nanay will try her very best not to shout nor get mad at him during our review sessions.

I surprised him on July 3, I went home earlier than before and picked him up from my in-laws' house while Ethan was sleeping.  (Don't worry Ethan, I will set up a separate date with you again :)  I was having a hard time thinking of places to go to bring Kuya Kiel to make him happy.  I was thinking of Timezone or any kids' place where he will surely enjoy. 

I just made up our itinerary right before I reach my in-laws' house.  I finally figured out where to go................




 




 



We went to Eternal Gardens where our Lolo Kiko, Lola Tinay and Tita Iye were buried.  Since Kuya Kiel didn't have the chance to meet personally his Lolo sa tuhod (great grandfather), I introduced him to Lolo and Kuya Kiel even said "Hi" hehehe (buti na lang di sumagot si lolo).

To my surprise, he enjoyed staying, playing and chatting with me there.  I told him stories about our childhood and he asked how did I meet tatay (Edmund).  (Aba, at curious na ang aming binata, baka may ipapakilala na bukas makalawa...hehehe)

I wasn't able to go to church on my birthday to hear the mass so I decided to go to church after going to the Eternal Gardens.  We were 15 minutes earlier than the 6pm mass, thus, I asked Kuya Kiel to look for snacks and we went to the nearby sari-sari store, we bought biscuits and softdrinks for only Php 46. (compared to Timezone or any other kids' place, this amount is way too far from the expenses that we may incur if we go to these places. Thank God He brought us there.)

We heard the mass, then, we went to Pavilion Mall to grab some pasalubong for Ethan Kulit.

No amount of money can buy the precious time I had with our panganay, Kuya Bujoy.

Thanks for the time anak and I love you, Ethan and tatay. :)

Thank God for precious time like this.  (the following day, we went back together with Ethan and tatay.  We brought their bikes.  Mukhang mapapadalas na ito.)
