hailey techie

How time really flies! I can't believe that I already have a techie daughter. She turned three last January and her computer skills are really emerging! Last year I was so impressed when she learned how to use the space bar to replay the youtube videos she's watching, followed that  by the use of track pad in mommy's phone to choose the video she wanna watch (take note she learned/discovered all of that by herself) and early this year she learned to navigate the mouse when she's youtube-ing and gradually got the hang of it, so now she can play on-line.

She already know how to spell her name "hailey" both in oral and typing (using the keyboard) as well as the words "mommy" and "daddy", and knows how to delete it as well using the backspace.  Plus we gained additional words that she can actually read, like before it was only up to 15 words but now she can read probably up to 20 words.

Some of the unforgettable conversations we had with H:

Last year (Nov.2011) in Manila: 2yrs.and 10mos.
Hailey: Come on Mommy Star let's go outside!
MommyStar: No let's just stay here it's raining.
Hailey: Uhmmm..(Puts her finger in her temple, acts like she's thinking) Aha! (With her surprise face with wide open eyes and mouth, and her pointer in an upward position) I have an idea!
Mommy Star: What's your idea?
Hailey: Umbrella!

This year (Feb.2012) back in the province: Just turned 3y.o. last Jan.
Hailey: Papa Noynoy let's go to Gaisano (Mall)!
Papa Noy: Oh it's closed Hail.
Hailey: I have an idea! A key! A key!
Mom: But we don't have a key sweetheart..
Hailey: Don't worry Mom, I help you find a key..

Don't you think I have the bragging rights to be the PROUD-est Mom on earth? :))
Truly my sweet-est thing!

friends~forever

When you have a place to go at the end of the day ~ that is HOME.

When you have people to love ~ that is FAMILY.

When you have someone whom you can be yourself and accepts and cares for you in any circumstances ~ that is a FRIEND.

When you have all of them ~ that is a BLESSING. :D

That is one of the many wonderful text messages sent to me by my long lost bf  "Kristine" when they got back to Bohol after spending some fun times with me here in her hometown Antique last February. We've been friends since 1997 and became one of the closest among others in our class. We both transferred to a different schools during '98 I was the first one, but continued our friendship thru letters (I still have 'em) and '99 she transferred and never to hear anything from each other since then. So roughly for 13 years we've never seen and heard from each other again, not until last month we had this chance of celebrating the good times we've had from the past and given the chance of making another memorable one. What a small world, isn't it? For so many places in the world she happened to be my husband's kababayan. I think I already mentioned her last year in one of my posts when we found each others' account in fb, so that's where we got updated with each others' lives. 

Here we are:

Reunited! 

With our kids.=))

 Sisters by heart! 

Despite the distance and the many years we've lost along the way, I thank God for bringing me friends as precious as this one. I love her and forever we'll be friends. Sis, alamoyan! Andito ka o' sa puso ko! Thank you! Mwah! <3 I hope to be with her again, sana this summer. =))
