Kiddos & bebes of 2012

Labyu, MM!

Holed up in an obscure hotel, waiting for something that never came to be, my afternoon was pleasantly interrupted by an almost 2-year-old cutie who would not smile for my camera. That is, until he espied my cookies on the bed! It was really a delightful encounter even if his yaya kept on referring to me as "Lola". Hay!

Dear God Letters

Dear God,

* I think about you sometimes even when I'm not praying... ELLIOT

* Did you mean for giraffe to look like that or was it an accident? ... NORMA

* I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church. Is that ok? ... NEIL

* Thank you for the baby brother but what I prayed for was a puppy ... JOYCE

* I do not think anybody could be a better God. Well I just want you to know but I am not
just saying that because you are God ... CHARLES


Dear God,

I wish I had days with no papers to check! No reports to write! No deadlines! No  meetings! Except maybe to have friends over to a sparkling, clean house. Cook for them a nice, guilt-free meal. And then have long, intoxicating conversations till we feel we've had too much of the drinks but not enough of the company. So we plan for another day like that soon.

Mano po, Ninang 2008

Truly, the Christmas spirit is brought alive by children. Christmas day & the days after, my numerous inaanak and our grandchildren by niece Jazmin and nephew Johnbee, brightened up our households and renewed our hope for the new year.

My fave pix of the kiddos

These are pictures from Bong's Multiply albums which I found really adorable!!!
