My Adorable Bee

I missed this. And it made me re-think about priorities and being a working mom all over again. But I took time away from work already to attend his recognition day so I guess, this is the trade off.


When I saw the pictures of this adorable bee at their year-end presentation at a theatre at SM Southmall, I was happy and wistful at the same time. His costume barely reaching his ankle, my boy is really a kid and not a baby anymore.

The presentation

On God
Jared calls me at the office
J: Mom, Tati and I are talking
M: About what?
J: About God and phlegm (ahhh, this got me confused!)


On his mom being vain
M: Jared,  do you think mom is pretty?
J: (without missing a beat) You are pretty-ful mom!


Holy Week
At church on Palm Sunday
J: Look Grandma, God is there (pointing to the door at the altar)
J: (whispering, as if talking to himself) Why are there many gods ba? (referring to the priests and altar boy positioned near that door)


His nightime prayer
J: Jesus, please protect our house and keep it healthy. Please send the SOCO and the barangay to watch our house.
 
On ambition
At the hospital
Nurse: Do you want to be a doctor, baby?
J: Ummm, I want to be an ambulance (driver)

The Prolific Storyteller

There is no limit to where your imagination can take you. In my 5 year old's case, he's been to outer space, battling the jedi with his top-of-the-line light saber one minute, then back to earth as an office going guy in a convertible car the next.

This boy continues to amaze us every single day, talking like 500 wpm, jumping, laughing and finding mundane things funny. Part of me wishes I'm with him 24/7 to document all that he says. But this blog is the next best thing. So when I find myself too tired to blog, I remind myself I'm missing on documenting the world and our life today as my 5 year old son sees it: happy, wonderful and always full of surprises.
