Earlier @ Shopwise Festi...

"Hi, I'm Afa."

A boy in school uniform introduces himself. He shows his ID, with his name RAPHAEL, printed in bold. And he reaches out his hand to me.

"Oh, hi, Afa! I'm Lorie."

"Are you shopping for chocolates, Lorie?"

"I'm just getting a few for my kids." I answered back, smiling. :)

"You must be a very nice mommy. Am i right, Lorie?"

"Haha... I believe so, Afa." I said.

"You look nice. You must be a nice mommy, Lorie.

Get them this (showing me a pack of these candy-coated chocolates)! They will love this. And they're fun, Lorie. You see, lots of colors."


"Okay, i'll get that. Thanks, Afa!" I thanked him as i left the aisle.

"I'll see you around, Lorie!"

And we met again while they're queued at the cashier. Then he introduced me to his classmates.

Nakakatuwang bata :)

Before they left, he said:

"I like you, Lorie. You were nice to me. You're not afraid to talk to me."

"I really don't talk to strangers. But you made my day, Afa."

"You don't be afraid of Afa, okay? It's just an extra komo-some (i believe, he meant "chromosome")."

The kid really made my day. Kahit dumudugo yung ilong ko when i speak to him, i had the purest smile. Iba talaga when you speak to a kid with a pure heart. Nakakahawa ung joy ng personality nya :)

Trick or Treat 2013. Super Late Blogging.

Halloween's the time of the year when aton gets herself ready for some fashion experiments. But this year, her mom was quite busy. we weren't able to prepare much for Trick or Treat.

Keber though! LOL. My kids were still fab for Trick or Trick!

We just got whatever we already have in our closets. Except for Anika's costume, which I got from a thrift shop in Kadiwa for I think, 50pesos...


It's a porcelain doll's dress. It's quite long and the armholes are tight, and it needed a little fix. So I did some adjustments to make the dress fit my princess :) 

Here are my three little indians on their Bellefort Trick or Treat:


And these are their candy bags-- an old pumpkin pail, an emptied glue pail (from APO  cement), and a furry bag:


We also joined SM Dasma's Trick or Treat on the 31st:


I had them wear their old costumes (anika wore the same costume from our previous t/t event)..


Truth is, my legs would really ache every after a trick or treating event. Should i care more? What's important is.. my kids are enjoying. Kahit paisa-isa lang magbigay yung ibang mga tenants, they're always happy with what they receive. And at the end of the day, i'm sure that my indians had a blast. :)


For the love of my three little indians.

Xoxo,
