Wishing I was 10 years old again

I rarely get sick but when that happens, boy, oh! boy--I would promise to eat more veggies and drink lots of water. Beside being a mom of two girls, I can't afford to get sick.But as luck would have it--I wasn't well for two days. Staying in bed made me so emotional and longed for hot chicken soup, Skyflakes and Royal Tru Orange.

I don't know about you but when we were young,my siblings and I would get the privilege of having "the snack" not the banana cue but Skyflakes and Royal Tru-Orange, that's right! During our younger years those snacks were special because we were not allowed to drink softdrinks nor given money that easily to buy something. Of course, I couldn't able to finish the bottle nor enjoy it but having that softdrink when I was sick reminded me that an extra special attention was given. It was really a wonderful feeling.

I can't remember drinking lots of Royal Tru Orange but I guess what I have remembered most was my parents' loving hands, gently stroking my pain away.

Let it snow, let it snow--man!

The rasta-inspired creation of my hubby and Ms.K After loads of rolling here and there, it's done. Our first snowman of the season.;)It might not last long and will surely lose its precious eyes by tomorrow, but for now let's enjoy that smile. This reminds me of something, I just can't put my finger on it. Hmmm, do you have any idea? Think...think...! Eh-oh! Smile, it's Monday!

Vacation over

It's kinda hard to get up early again after 2 weeks of staying up late.I've started taking the girls early to bed and of course, they're awake at around 6h30. My husband on the other hand has started working and I think he misses his late mornings. Now it's back to normal sched again. Now, I'm lazily doing my chores and still hoping that my mug of coffee will take effect soon. How do you get back to normal routine after weeks of vacation?
