Back to Work

"Mommy, hwag ka pasok sa office! Hindi na! Dito ka na lang house."

"Sa ___ (says name of my office)? Well, okay. Ako, wowork din dito na lang sa house." (By this she means she will play with her new laptop which I got from the Richwell sale --- found in my next entry).

Oh well, that's the life of a working mom. This is the life I choose to live so I better just make the most of it.

Pictures here: We had some goody bags and party hats for the guests too. The party started at 12 noon with a short prayer and a cheerful happy birthday song for Zoe: Then it was chowtime right ...
