Red is Marose

We went to a short family vacation / outing on the last weekend of April at my brother’s house in Batangas. We left late night of Friday to avoid traffic but there were a lot of trucks with spill kits or containers but good thing the trip going to Batangas went smoothly. On Sunday, we decide to go to a nearby resort and since my son loves swimming he was so excited. My son is still trying to learn to swim and I try to assist him with his floating, I just ask him to relax and close his eyes, and look at him.

These are no ordinary twenty pesos bills. Yes, at first look it looks like an ordinary new generation money bills but it has a significant value for me. Last month was my birthday. On the day itself, my husband has work so we decided that I and my son would just go to Megamall at the end of my husband’s shift. Before we left the house, my son told me to wait as he forgot something upstairs. He went up and when he went down again he was holding something and he was hiding it at his back. He approached me and greeted me Happy Birthday and handed me these twenty pesos bills. I know this amount would not be enough to buy charm bracelets but I was really touched by his little act of thoughtfulness. This money came from the money that he received last Christmas from his Godmothers and Godfathers. Up to now, I haven’t spend the money and I don’t have plans of spending it. I hope as he grows up he will continue to be thoughtful in his own little ways.

We are attending The Feast every Sunday at Valle Verde. It is a Catholic prayer meeting of the Light of Jesus family. There would be a mass, a teaching and worship. My brothers are part of the dance ministry and they offer their talents in dancing as worship to the Lord. My son, seeing my brothers dancing in front, told me that he wanted to be a dance ministry also. I agreed, I accompanied him at the practice Saturday afternoon and yesterday he danced in front! He is just seven years old and the youngest among the group. He had mistakes and sometimes he just imitates the big guys but I am still proud of him. I have videoed it using my mother’s iphone and tried to upload the video at youtube but I am having a hard time. I just hope I don’t need a vlc media player just to watch the video and share it at facebook and on my son’s blog.

My son likes to listen to music using his cellphone, Nokia 3120C. This is my old mobile phone that I decided to give it to him. He don’t really use it to text and call, he just uses it for playing games and listening to music. Whenever he hears a new song, he would always ask me to download it on his phone. It’s nice that my son is interested in music and sometimes I would hear him singing. I remember him singing Pinoy Ako and A whole new world using electro-voice microphones at my mother’s house. I think he has a good voice and it would need to be developed. I hope I can enroll him to a voice lessons this summer but I still have to ask him if he wants it or not.

No, my little boy is not with Santa Claus but with Spiderman. When we go out to the mall he likes to go to the toy section of the department store. Jerome James doesn’t ask me to boy toys for him as he is already contented with window shopping but would always tell me that when we have extra money we would buy new toys for him. He likes toy cars and super hero toys and one of his favorite superheroes is Spiderman.

This is my first time to join Red Hot Thursday:

My son is six years old already. Lately, all the people who see him would make a comment that his big already, he gained weight and he looked better with it. Some would love touching his rounded face especially his cheeks. He is taller now and he knows it as he likes comparing his height with his cousins. Few more years and he would no longer fit with his current bed and he might even need adult bunk beds so he can sleep comfortably. In a few months he would be celebrating his seventh birthday and he is so excited about it and he keep on planning what to do and who to invite on his birthday. He knows a lot of things already and he is just growing up so fast.
