Brave Hearts ~

    Today, I have no choice but to send them home on their own via a Habal-habal (motorcycle taxi). Even if our place is not rural or mountainous, habal-habal is available even at the City proper. For the whole week, Nat’s classes is only for half day because their teacher will be busy for the ‘King and Queen’ preparations during afternoon. He is done with classes every 11AM.  I have no choice because Sushi’s classes ends at 10AM too. So for the first time, I just have to pray for their safety and send them home, trusting the driver. They need to have a strong heart, early in their lives.    Yes, I am worried, but I trust that God will take care of them :’(

Valentine’s Day 2026!

Nat has a class today even if it is a Saturday. It has been scheduled to make up for the ‘NO CLASSES’ days since December due to typhoons. Their teacher even announced a PTA meeting by 2:30PM and the release of grades too. This falls on a Valentine’s Day! I was not expecting anything. Valentine’s Day to me is just a normal day, nothing special, nothing extraordinary. Or maybe, I am not just used to it. Instead, M surprised me and Sush of a gift. How sweet!  Sush's gift. M's gift to me! She also bring some more that we have enough to give, even to my sisters. In the afternoon, I’m excited to hopefully give M a treat of ‘Beef Sate’ at Harbour City ICM. I was hoping that she would like it being hot and spicy. Unfortunately, she was not feeling well and the rain did not stop, so Sush and I decided to just fetch Nat from school and take a TVS on the way to the City. Nat was already waiting at school when we arrived. He looked uninterested. He looked tired. LOL. Most of t...

Kab Scout 2026!

Image
        Shared by one of the parents.    Shared by my colleague.             Nat has registered for the Scouting event this year. As a Kab Scout, I was again on my edge because I forgot where his things are like the "kabaw-kabaw" which serves as the neckerchief slide. Gone was the belt that he used to have the last time, too. Wow, I am some kind of a chaotic Mama. I have no choice but to buy a new one for the missing things he need as part of his uniform. So it was kind of worrying for me. The torch is the hardest of all to make. Grateful to M, for stepping up! She made the torch while I repaired the shorts at Plaza Rizal :D
