The gift of foresight
We fetched him yesterday from school and he informed us that indeed, they were supposed to bring a watercolor set! It's just that Sis. Ciata forgot to tell the class about it, and when Sister saw that he brought one as an initiative (a result of his critical thinking... ) sister commended Nirro "Very Good!" --- obviously because of an analytical mind as displayed by his logic when he explained to me why we have to buy it yesterday from the bookstore.
And so, sister informed the whole calss to bring theirs tomorrow... which is later today by the way, as of this "blogging" session.
Nirro was so happy he anticipated that. And quite frankly, he has no idea how truly amazed and proud I am of him! The way he sees things, analyzes them, applying logic in his reasoning and his exercise of the gift of foresight. Wow! I don't know but I do believe these are qualities of a leader. Hope he keeps it up and he'll definitely go places when he grows up!

Drawing Book, atbp.
Buying the drawing book was a requirement for Nirro's Class, however, he insisted that we buy a watercoloring set as well. Nirro said that we should buy one now so that when Sis. Ciata tells them to bring one to school, he already has one. Besides, he said, how can you have a drawing book without the stuff to paint with? How could I argue with that logic huh? Ok ok, buy the watercolor!Wednesday, July 11, 2007
Mga pahabol...
*** Nirro got ten (10) stars from Sister Ciata (his teacher) last Monday (july 9, 2007) for going to mass last Sunday.
*** Last Tuesday, heavy rains poured in the metropolis that flooded most streets. But Nirro wanted to go home already so his Lolo Ben braved the storm.. Too bad the flooded roads became unpassable they had to go back here- but not without damage though, they had a flat tire. His papa robert fetched him later in the evening when the floods have subsided.
*** Wednesday, July 11, Lolo Ben discovered that the car had more than just a falt tire - it won't start! He spent the day getting the car fixed and Nirro watching over them in the garage. Somehow, nirro seem happy with the fact that his lolo was around the house and did not go to work. He had to buy some materials for school that he even made sure his lolo will be home when he gets back -"Lolo, pagbalik namin ni Tita Russel andito ka pa ha? Di ka na pupunta sa office mo?". Oh sweet nirro!

Swimming!

These pictures would show how joyful these cute boys are waddling and playing with water. It was a warm day still even if rains have been pouring. In fact, a storm is seen to hit the country soon.
By the way, yesterday, Nirro had a "hang-over" with the "miswa soup" that he asked his lola baby to cook him some. And guess what? He finsihed another big bowl of that soup!
For lunch today, Nirro ate a real viand - afritada. Prepared it before he arrived so it was already cooked by the time he was here. He was swimming and at the same time, eating. It was actually a delight to see him eat every spoonful of that food. And he managed to eat a lot. Hmnn... nice. After swimming, and feeling cold, the boys took a bath and their afternoon nap...

I just wasn't able to take their pic but they were so cute when they were in the sofa bed and I was trying to make them fall asleep together. Joro kept on playing and teasing his Kuya Nirro and kisses him in his cheeks just so to keep him awake! Nirro was pretending to sleep by closing his eyes and so Joro kept on poking his cheek and kissing him...hahaha... Then Joan came over to get Joro as we know those boys won't sleep like that... After a little pat, Nirro dozed off to dreamland...

New haircut, atbp..


Nirro had a new haircut.. see the photo above? Nice huh...
Nothing really fancy happening last weekend. Saturday, his lolo ben picked him up but on the way there, he fell asleep that's why his lolo had to wait for two (2) hours in ate's place before Nirro woke up. When they arrived here, Nirro played with his cousins Abigail and Jerriel. These kids are usually here every weekend as well.

Sunday, Tita Joan cooked "Miswa with Patola Soup", and when Nirro saw Joro eagerly eating his bowl of "miswa", Nirro wanted to eat, too. Joro's Lola Remy gave Nirro a bowl and as shown by the photos, our baby Nirro eating the soup all by himself.

He finished the bowl of miswa soup... and resumed playing with Abigail.
If only he would eat all his meals on his own....
