A Little Celebration

-
The end of the 1st half of the year, the start of a new month, payday plus (the highlight of the week) the silver and bronze medals received by our 8yo and 15yo sons a few days ago were the perfect excuse for this extended family to splurge a little extra on food. We chose to have Japanese dinner at SumoSam.

Jerry and I recently discovered the Perfect Match and ordered the steak and chicken combos (for sharing with Pa and Ma) plus ebi tempura with gohan (for Jake) and US beef sizzling plate (for Kyle).

What we like about the perfect match is it comes with either steak or chicken plus a choice of one from the following: ebi teppan, ebi tempura, salmon or fish fingers (we got salmon for both of our combos). A combo is served with house salad, miso soup, California rolls and Japanese fried rice. And that's a complete meal right there for this group. Perfect match indeed for sharing with perfect company!

Angels Are All Around Us

by Junnie Metro Manila is still wet. Some parts are still with knee-deep waters. One thing we have going for us is that we have strong faith that this too shall pass, and that the Filipino will rise above. It is October already and it seemed that no one noticed that we arrived Manila last Monday at the heels of the weekend Typhoon Ondoy visited the country. This week we celebrated the feast of the Archangels - Raphael, Michael and Gabriel, and last Thursday, we celebrated the feast of our Guardian Angels. What a whole week of heroic deeds from Pinoys helping their kababayans, and for all the angels in our lives. :)

School and a Mixed Bag of Emotions

"You can’t imagine your life with kids, until you have them, then you can’t imagine your life without them." ~Author Unknown It's been a week since two of our three sons flew to Manila to attend their classes. 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
