So this is how it feels. Seeing my daughter excitedly walk to school. Her first day. I am excited. Worried... Alright. Scared... Will she get along with the other kids? Will she eat her snack. There are so many questions. But just like in everything she did--from her first drawing to riding a bike, I'm learning to stay aside and just "watch"...to let her discover her own world, safe in the knowledge that she's going to be alright.

Sirens, drilling sound, cars honking not to forget conversation here and there. The usual chirping of birds and greens are momentarily left behind. I'm out of the house and enjoying a sunny day, but I need my renversé! And in a red mug, please, thank you ;)

Boxes filled our cellar and most of the time ignoring them is the only solution. It's like trying to get away from the reality and holding on to something,not wanting to let go. Maybe I'm getting dramatic here, but yes, the girls are growing so fast and their stuff need to be put away. Thinking of having a third baby occupies my mind from time to time--giving me a good reason to hold on to my girls' stuff-- but my age and the need to find a job now that my children are going to school/garderie outweigh it. Still I have managed to put some stuff into the recycle bin, others are ready to be sent home nevertheless there are still boxes to be sorted out. In time I'll organize them...in time.

June 3,2012 Coming up with an original title for this post wasn't easy. I even forgot the date. Shame on me. It wasn't supposed to be like that. Weeks before the 30th June--our 5th anniversary, I wondered if my husband would remember the date coz it was also the day we'd leave for our 1 week vacation in Bourgogne--one of the many regions in France. With all the house chores and trip preparation,it slipped my mind. It was on our way to Chaignay where we'd stay that he wished me "Happy Birthday!" and told me that he was sure I'd forgotten about it. Anyway, we had kir with my MIL,SIL and her BF, and we'd be going out tonight for a late dinner celebration. So glad that we've reached this far,dahling! Here's to lots of love, happiness, health and GIFTS!!! You might also like: Tagay pa?* An enchanting moment Sunday and rainbow Let it snow, let it snow--man! How...
