It is a routine to ‘lend’ my son, Van to my in-laws once a week for at least 3 days. It is a way for him not to forget his grannies and aunties in my husband’s side. Also, this practice serves as a ‘breather’ from the usual mommy duties I am constantly faced with. Although it is quite tough for a mother to not see her child even for a day, I have learned to get used to it. But I cannot deny the fact that I am silently sufferring from the “missin’ feeling” every single time. Then I saw a Facebook notification tagging me into this photo:
With my son, Van at Coleen’s 1st Birthday
My heart instantly melted when I saw this photo. He looks so adorable. 🙂 Then I realised how blessed I am to have such an angel in my life. Being away from him made me appreciate his value. I can’t wait for him to come back home tomorrow morning.

I love weekends! It is my time to do special things; activities outside my routine that really put a smile on my face. Today’s post involves a children’s party, dancing with friends and comfort food.
We went to McDonald’s Pioneer today for a children’s party. It was my nephew Yohan’s first birthday. Being the mother that I am, kids’ parties always make me excited for my son, Van. Just like me, Van is very cheerful and fun-loving. He loves dancing, playing games, talking with other people and singing the birthday song. You can just imagine how happy he is during parties and today’s event is no different. Seeing him smile is enough to cause me bliss.

After the party, I head on over to my workmate Jade’s place in Quezon City to practice our dance number for our upcoming company Christmas party. Dancing has always been my release. I love the adrenaline rush, the challenge of making and memorising dance steps and everything about it. After an intense workout, we had a hearty dinner at Banapple Il Terrazo. All of us had a sumptuous comfort meal. We were so full right after. It was fun to spend time with them outside of work.

Indeed, it was yet another fun filled day for yours truly. This is one of those days I consider busy but packed with nothing but goodness. 🙂
