Mimi placed third in a science quiz bee while Jarred is also getting used to schooling and can now write his name. Their rewards comes in a form of kids day out at Kidzoona where they can enhanced more their talents.

Sunday@SM Santa Rosa

Our favorite buffet restaurant just opened at SM santa rosa and it seems that its a big hit for families on weekend. For a price of 298 pesos plus VAT, i think its reasonable enough. Though most of the dishes are filipino foods, Dirk liked it very much.

While having lunch, the staff of Ace Hardware are also busy putting the new leather seat cover of Love....

Dirk and Love

Dirk liked it very much when we are using Astrid's car named Love because it is more convenient for him getting in and out....

My Girl Scouts

I am very happy that despite some financial difficulties on the part of my children who are carrying the burden of sending kids to private schools, their daughters still joined the Girl Scouts. I still remember when i was their age, i really liked to join but my mother didn't allow me because we don't have enough money for the uniform. Anyway, i hope my grandaughters will learn something from being a girl scout and be prepared at all times....

Congratulations again to Mimi for placing third in science quiz bee, two thumbs up to you apo ....

Our Cenacle Prayer Group

After staying for us for three weeks, Mama Mary is now with the Regaspi family. They are very religious and the kids also participated in our praying the rosary and the interpretation of the gospel. After the prayers and sharings, we feasted on foods that Luchi prepared because of the birthday of her son and daughter. Over the sumptuous dinner, its catching up time for all of us.

By the way before Mama Mary left our house, our lighted candle formed a heart figure. Sure it was Mama Mary's way of expressing her love and gratitude to all of us.

Mama Mary and Dirk

I am very proud of Dirk because though he has no religion, he has lots of respect and love for Mama Mary. Everyday, i always see him touching the Mother of our Lord as a sign of respect. I am very happy that Mama Mary choose to celebrate Her birthday with us and the three weeks that She is with us is not enough. Mama Mary thank you very much for all the blessings, the love, guidance and keeping my family safe always.
