COLBY'S DAY OUT

This morning, around 6 or 7 am I think, I treat our dog named Colby, out.


Before we hit the morning road, I prepare a small plastic bag (Sorry for the anti-plastic group. Peace) and 2 pieces of old newspaper (Pandakot o pambalot lang talaga ang isa sa mga kinahihinatnan ng lumang dyaryo). For what? For Colby's poopsy. Then I put what I called "poop kit" in my shorts pocket. Here we go!


It's not Colby's first time to go out of our house. In fact, every afternoon, I walked her around the street near our home. But this morning, it's quite a long walk. We go beyond the Forbidden Forest (Harry Potter?! Hahahah) She's afraid of new things she just saw. The speedy tricycles, the King of the Road - jeepney (PUJ), swerving motorcycles, and most of all ASPIN (Asong Pinoy) dogs or what most of us call them "askal" (Asong Kalye). ASPIN dogs barked at her, maybe to say hello or just snarl at her. To her fright, it made Colby snug at my legs. So I slightly pull her leash to walk forward then off we go!


Next stop, we came to Lola Linda's house for a visit. Lola is very delightful to see Colby growing up from a small cuddly puppy to a medium built puppy. Yes, she's still a puppy. She still have those sharp pointed teeth but eventually it will change to a adult dog teeth. Lola said Colby had a nice wavy fur. Then I had a sumptuous breakfast. Pinoy's all time favorite - HOT PANDESAL. And hot choco on the side.


After the breakfast and few chats with Lola and brisk walk with Colby, we head back home.


That morning exercise is a good idea and I think Colby was thankful to be out in the world. It made her alive and a percent healthier. Because just like us, humans, dogs or even other animals needs a stretch.

Sure-real Moments

---> UERMMC Hospital, January 13, 2011         Sophia Ailee was 8 weeks then. Just about the size of a tadpole with normal beating heart. To my awe, it made me say, Oh my god, as I saw her on the ultrasound monitor. She's there, definitely there. ---> Amisola Maternity Hospital, February 22, 2011, Pelvic Ultrasound         Our dear baby has grown a lot. From being a tadpole-like to a human baby body with head like her Didi (shorten term for Daddy), little arms stretching and crossed legs. Her spinal cord and bones in both arms and legs is already formed but still maturing. As I saw her thru the monitor, feels like I can almost touch her. It made me teary eyed during the session. Our baby is perfectly fine and that was an ease on my part and Charles, too. Phew! ---> Twist. Kick. Roll. Punch.         Sounds like a video game, right? We just need some super powers. Hahaha. It is very o...

Happy Mother's Day

 I know this is long over due but it is still the month we celebrate Mother's Day, right? So lend me your yes and ears for a while. May 13, 2012. The whole world pays tribute and cheers for the greatest woman of our lives - our mothers. Many names have been called to her. Mom, Mama, Momsie, Mamita, Mimi, Mommy, Inay, Nanay, Mudra or Mudang (in gay language here in the Philippines) but whatever names you call them it will still give a tinge of pride and joy when you call them. On this day, many send their greetings to me thru text (BTW, I'm already a mom). I'm thankful for it but I felt a little awkward. I just told myself, I am officially a mother. This is my first ever mother's day celebration. I greet my mama and she greet me back, and we laugh. We spend the day at home watching movies and eating what's on our fridge. Let's us thank our mom for they are the only person who will love and support us all the way. For us moms, always and forever give ou...
