My parents' house is close to the main highway where cars and other vehicles are speeding every minute. But Nat, who is now five years old, can be trusted with a little responsibility so long as it is well explained to him and being careful with the place and the road.

It was still a Thursday when they left home, in Baclayon because burial will he held the day after. Thankfully, M was able to take a leave for a few days. Taking the kids to M's place was not easy.

Today is the 18th Annual General Assembly of CEVCC. We attended the event at Metro Center Hotel. As early as now, I tried my best to teach them how to save.

With this Cooperative, Nat and Sush can have a way to send their money for better returns. I hope that someday, they will live a life of discipline and abundance, not lacking anything.
