I realize that my last post was soooo gory (to exagerate it), so my post today is on the lighter side of life! Ha!
Princess Wendy recently opened a bank account of her own…with 4,000 pesos of initial savings. She was proud for the first few days, which was understandable because of all the excitement (after all, it was her ipon). But after a while, it still was not over. Wendy would still try to sneak in “4,000 pesos” in some conversations.
PW: Mama, paglaki ko magtatayo ako two restaurants: one for rich people and one for street children. Syempre, free for the street children.
KG: Wow! That’s good! Pero san mo kukunin money for the restaurant for the street children? Eh di sila magbabayad?
PW: Sa binabayad ng rich people!
KG: Eh san mo kukunin panggastos mo sa restaurant for rich people?
PW: Hmmmm…e di yung 4,000 pesos ko!

KG [while driving home from PW’s school]: Wendy, look oh, pink house! Ang ganda ano?
PW: Yes, for sale yan dati eh.
KG: Talaga?
PW: Yes. Bakit di natin binili?
KG: May pambili ka?
PW: Yung 4,000 pesos ko!
****
KG’s brother: Wends, miss mo na Hong Kong?
PW: Yes! Balik tayo lahat!
KG’s brother: Sige, libre mo kami?
PW: Oo naman! May 4,000 pesos ako!

Apparently, for her 4,000 pesos = 1 million pesos (which I wish were true), thus the high chin and “I-have-4,000-pesos” attitude.
Kids!

Anyway, just want to share something that goes to show that when parents are desperate, they can do anything!

This is the hula skirt I made for PW…from scratch! I was so desperate because I couldn’t find one, and she needed one tomorrow! Nahalughog ko na ata lahat ng mall…pati Bicutan market wala din. And when I left Divisoria empty-handed, I knew I was in trouble. Text brigade gave zero results! So, I thought to my self, deperate times call for desperate measures. I put the matter into my own “hands.” And this is the result. Who knew my hands could do something like this?
Happy weekend everyone!
