this afternoon, mikee, who's in her final year in kindergarten, called me while i was at work ...

mikee: mama, i need your help with my homework.
me: okay, we'll do it later when i'm home.
mikee: but i want to finish it now!
me: okay, then you go and ask for your lola's (grandma) help.
mikee: no! she can't help me. she don't know how to do this. it's soooo hard. i need to do equals!

after watching part of the disaster marathon and seeing all of those tsunami shows, gabie came to me ...

gabie: mama, do the fishes also die in a tsunami?

after teaching mikee the nursery rhyme jack and jill, she said ...

mama, i really don't know why jack went up the hill ...

tokyo is doomed?

when i heard about the news of the earthquake and tsunami in japan, what strike me most was the conversation that miggy and i had about 15 minutes before i heard the news ...

miggy: mama, did you know that tokyo, japan is doomed?
me: why?
miggy: someday tokyo will be destroyed because did you know that tokyo is under mt. fuji? and mt fuji is an active volcano!

that's why i was quite stunned when the first thing i heard when we reached home was about the quake and tsunami!

gabie: papa, what's a spring roo?
hubby(unsure how to reply): it's a framework.
gabie: papa, what's a framework?

to be or not to be

a few days ago, i was watching tv in the bedroom while the kids were playing on the bedroom floor ...

miggy: to be or not to be!
me: huh?!? 
miggy: i said, to be or not to be!
me: do you even know who said that?
miggy: uhhh, spongebob?
me: what?! of course, not. it's written by shakespeare!
miggy: what? you mean it's not spongebob?


i don't know where he got that idea ... anyway, here's a photo of the spongebob cake i baked for his 10th birthday ...

the little sister

i overheard mikee talking to miggy ...

mikee: kuya, can you get me a cup of milk?

miggy: and why will i do that?

mikee: but i'm your little sister! and you are my big brother!

i can already see the future of this little girl ... i guess i'd have to start saving for an mba ...

miggy: ok, i'll do that but you have to promise that you'll never be bad to me and you will give me cookies.

mikee: mama!!! kuya wants me to do things for him!

hahahaha so she's the only one who can make demands ... and guess what? after a few "discussions" with miggy, she got what she wanted in the end =D
