Online Distance Learning with Gianna

We started school two weeks ago and I’ve been on standby for whatever the kids need. One will ask for her hydro flask or a bowl or some alcohol. Another will ask for anolyte or her hydro. But mostly it’s the little one who asks for anything and everything — “mooooom, I need my soContinue reading “Online Distance Learning with Gianna”

Joke’s On Me

When we picked her up in school….. Me: What did you eat in school? (classmate had a party) G: junk. Me: (laughing) okay. I mean what was the food at Josephs party? G: Who’s Joseph? Joshua pala. That cracked Danae up. 😂   More than one time….. Me: Gianna, are you gonna obey or what?Continue reading “Joke’s On Me”

Pinoy tayo!

One of my kids was saying that her “Filipino friends” talk a certain way. Me: umm Filipino ka din, anak. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ One of my kids overheard my mom talking about Baclaran Day. She quickly interrupted and seriously (innocently) asked, “What’s that? Gay day?” 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ Gianna asked our Manang to get something in the car. G:Continue reading “Pinoy tayo!”

Funny February Friday

Gianna is four but sometimes she talks like she’s not. I don’t know why I even wonder when her older sisters were the same when they were her age. Just this morning, we had a conversation that went like this… Me: Stay here. I’ll be back. G: No. I’m scared. Me: Scared? Why are youContinue reading “Funny February Friday”

Last Funny Friday for 2018

Some words, for some reason, Gianna can’t pronounce properly… Jimastix. Her sisters have been in gymnastics for over a year and it’s still the same. Axe. Just last night she was telling her dad to “axe” the guard where a certain restaurant is. Minja. She said it so convincingly that I “axed” Noelle if itContinue reading “Last Funny Friday for 2018”

Funny Fridays Is Back (for today!)

>Noelle has always been funny with words. Someone in the family, I forget who, was singing Quest’s song entitled Saludo…. Noelle: Saludo? It’s Saluto! (with conviction) Me: It’s Saludo, love. Noelle: Oh, I thought it was salute-Oh. 😀   >Gianna hears a catchy ad once, and she learns it right away. Shopee to the tuneContinue reading “Funny Fridays Is Back (for today!)”
