During my rest days, I make sure I become the supermom my kids need. I cook for them, play with them, watch movies with them and use the phone and ipad as little as possible (except when we play the ipad together).
For this *long* weekend, we did a lot of movie watching. Monsters Inc., Lady & the Tramp, The Little Mermaid 2 and Nanny McPhee. I was surprised that Jieshua did like Nanny McPhee, which Rob & I connivingly chose because it teaches a lot of good manners. I can almost here Nanny McPhee's voice saying "Lesson Three, Sharing.. is complete." while I type..
While watching all these cartoons (except Nanny McPhee), I noticed that most plots always involve a hard-headed offspring that wants to be on their own, runs away and in the end, go back home after realizing the mistake they did. Hmm. Lesson #1: DO NOT RUN AWAY FROM HOME! Haha.
I never was the party animal. I never liked partying and all. Sure I drink liquors but mostly on chill nights with close friends. ☺
And so when I had my family, I never had the problem of "stop partying for the sake of your family" because as I said, I never partied to begin with.
I had my babies young so I get a lot of comments that when they get older, it would seem like they're just my siblings. (Oh yes! I'm gonna grow old a hot mommy! Haha!)
So whenever I hear those comments, what always comes to mind is me
So, with this in mind, I let them party early... at our house.... before bedtime.
Hahahahaha
Prepare to be amazed at how my babies danced like you got served gangstahs. lololololol. with caps and all. They got the moves... (Okay, I'm being too obsessed with them.)
Rob wasn't around but I'm sure if he had been, he'd be more hyper than the two kids. ☺
When kids sleeping already, Rob & I would watch movies or FRIENDS *always always*. We are movie buddies, frenemies and lovers. Gahd how I hate that guy one minute and be all clingy and cuddly the next!
Women are weird!!! xx
And I guess Rob knows that, that's why he's still with me after all my tantrums. Hahaha.
Sometimes, I get the feeling that I am being treated unfairly, or that others are given far more better opportunities than me, or that they have more of things that I want, or that life is kinda raining down on me, I stop ALL the thoughts from further entering and poisoning my thoughts and think that I am privileged to go home to two beautiful sleeping children (who loves me and are all clingy to me whenever I'm there), I am loved, supported and appreciated by my loving, handsome knight in Giordano-shirt-jeans-ensemble manfriend and that I have a family, my parents and my brother ALL alive and healthy. I think that is fairly enough. Apparently, I have more than that but material things are temporary so I wouldn't mention those.

Here's a screenshot of Rob's cheesiness after all these years. ♥
I just thank God for the gift of life and love. xx
I want to end this post with a quote, too far-fetched from this blog entry's title, from Br. Rolando R. Dizon FSC:
"The most important thing is that, as you journey through life, you discover the people who really love you and you nourish those relationships because in the end, even St. Paul says it, even faith and hope will disappear but love will remain forever."
