Morning wakes
The wind bites
And I stay here
thinking –
Summer is rainy
And I laugh
realizing –
It is the middle of August.
The rain comes in torrents
but for a while
the sun breaks through
the clouds.
It’s a big, wide world.
And I smile at the thought
of another lovely day.
And I count the days
till Christmas comes.

I love photos that tell a story. Sure you can just admire one particular shot but that is all there is to it. A garden fills the senses, a lovely bloom makes you admire nature, a lovely rainbow makes you wonder about the beauty of creation. Two years ago,…
He is now officially in pre-school and we are all excited. Nate and I talked on Viber last night for about a minute, I think. He shouted, “I am going to school tomorrow” in that excited voice of his and I can’t help but laugh. Our precious one is now officially a nursery student. Time […]
I have accumulated so many photos of Nate the last several months but sharing a story with what we do when they come for a visit makes me smile. These are series of shots that I took with my tab while watching him choosing what to read in his own little corner of our bookshelf. […]

Our little boy enjoyed swimming so much so I suggested if Nissa could enrol him in a summer school to learn how to swim properly. Nissa took this photo right after Nate spent four hours in the pool when they went swimming over the weekend somewhere in Laguna. They stayed there overnight, renting a private […]
Here I go again thinking how time flies and when it does, you reminisce and remember the things you should have written down. Today, Nate turns three years and three months old. What a far cry from when he was just three months and all we had were Brainy Babies DVDs to entertain him. I […]
There is a different kind of joy when you are around a kid like Nate. We are indeed so blessed to have him in our lives. I taught Nate how to say three with his fingers but he found it hard to raise his three fingers all at the same time so I told him, […]
Oh dear! Pasko na?! Love it, Arlene! Nice poem🙂

I often hear Christmas carols being played on the radio. Nostalgic, isn’t it?
