December Events: My MIL's Birthday

-
Mommy-in-law doesn't like crowded places so we brought her to Ginza where we had Japanese food for dinner. The place is an old favorite. It was perfect for Mommy as it was uncluttered and not too noisy. The other families there were celebrating in private function rooms so we were pretty much able to engage in a good conversation.

Mommy is not much of a talker by nature. That night, she mostly sat on her wheelchair and just laughed at Jake's antics and at the stories Jerry and our boys regaled her with. Such a heartwarming sight...

That day too, we drove her to our new place to let her see where our next major move would be. :) And God-willing, if everything falls into place, the move will happen within Q1 of this year.

Even with the (remaining) 9 year old son at home, doing his usual stuff alternately watching tv, tinkering with his Legos, cutting/ folding/ creating things with paper and playing with the iPad, and making a ruckus all by his lonesome, the house is, weirdly, quiet. I often find myself introspecting... about the nest almost empty now and other similar thoughts. And I struggle to stop myself from wallowing in a mixed bag of emotions. It's not a bad thing, except, I could waste hours doing that. I thought I was totally in control and could dismiss the situation as another milestone, like seeing your child lose his first baby tooth. Nothing a warm hug or an ice cream could not fix. On the contrary, that hug at this time just exacerbates the yearning. It

by Linnor When the boys are home, their room doesn't stay as orderly as the pic above.  Mistulang binagyo kapag silang lahat ay nasa loob ng kanilang asul na kwarto. :) Merong nag-gigitara, merong nagko-kompyuter at merong naglalaro ng Lego.  Sa madaling sabi, pag nasa silid sila, talagang di maiiwasan ang pagiging makalat nito.  :P Anyway, at least nasa bahay lang sila at hindi nagbabarkada sa labas. Pero sa totoo lang, after a long day at work or from school, it's always nice to come home to a clean house.  Ang sarap magpahinga sa maayos na kabahayan pagkatapos ng mahabang araw  di ba?
