my ate tala

i came to realize that when your child turns 6, there are lots of developments that come their way....my eldest daughter, tala, amazes me.......she thinks, acts, speaks differently now...there is something in her that i cannot explain....how she perceived things and how she reacts to her surroundings.

i felt sad for a moment coz i know, this little girl of mine will no longer be a girl.....

at around 4pm today, we were watching the nick channel:

nanay: ate tala, can you bite my hand
tala: no, nanay
nanay: why?
tala: i don't want to hurt you because i love you. we should not hurt the people we love.
nanay: oh, tala.........
tala:if i will bite you, you will be hurt and i will get hurt too. i dont want to see you being hurt nanay.

At around 530pm:

tala: nanay, can we take a shower?
nanay: sure tala
tala: you know what nanay, when i am grown up already, i will be too shy if we bathe together.
nanay: ate tala, i dont want you to be shy to nanay, even if you are a grown up girl already. i want you to share to nanay whatever it is that you want to share.
tala: no nanay, if i am a grown up girl, there is something i should keep to myself. Let's shower na nanay!

We left for baguio around 12mn and arrived at the hotel 4:30am.....( galing ng driver namin ano!). In the morning, hubby attended the seminar and i took this chance to sleep until 10am. At around 11am hubby's cousins, who are studying in Baguio visited me in our hotel. We went out for lunch, we just ate at Mang Inasal in SM.....then we headed to Mines View as I was looking for ate tala's ethnic costume that she will be using when she turns grade 1 this June (gradeschoolers should be wearing ethnic attire every Wednesday). I found a terno, a skirt and blazer, Igorota inspired for only P400.00, very cheap compared here in Manila. I went back to t

I saw the post of hubby in fb and it talks about the crayons. They are in  different colors but have to live in the same box......it is how he expressed his greetings for Human Rights Week....I suddenly remember this poem I thought to my Grade 1 students 3 years ago and I was able to teach to my 2 girls....I love the message of this poem.....have time to read and ponder..... The Crayon Box That Talked While walking into a toy store the day before today I overheard a crayon box with many things to say "I don't like Red!" said Yellow and Green said "Nor do I" "And no one here likes Orange but no one knows just why" "We are a box of crayons that doesn't get along Said Blue to all the others "Something here is wrong" Well, I bought that box of crayons and took it home with me And laid out all the colors so the crayons all could see They watched me as I colored with Red and Blue and Green And Black and White and Orange and e
