My Ginisang Munggo, Iron Man, and the kids....

Dear Mama,

I intended to write last night, unfortunately I was so exhausted that I slept upon arriving home. Yesterday, the kids and I went to SM Clark to watch the movie Iron Man, cause I have promised them that once they all get well we're going to watch the movie.

As you know, they all got sick and the last weeks were very stressful and tiring for me. I was worried sick cause their fever has been recurring and I have no one here to help me. Fortunately, you were here and touched them. Had it not been for you, I know I wouldn't be able to take care of them. Thank you Mama.

So as I promised them, I took them to the Mall after EA's enrollment. Yes, they are all enrolled now for the next school year. After we had lunch at home, I asked them all to get ready and we headed for the mall and straight to the cinema to watch Iron Man. If you were with us, we could have watched The Forbidden Kingdom where Jacky Chan is, actually it was my choice too, unfortunately I was outvoted.

As usual, even before halfway thru the movie, the popcorns were already over. And I bought two big buckets at that! Anyway, everything went fine. Altho I was a bit worried because it was so cold inside the cinema, and they all just came from sickness. Luckily, they didn't have any problem, altho they all got cold. After the movie, we roamed around the mall and they played, I mean we played, a few games at the Quantum amusement center before we had our dinner at Kenny Roger's.

After dinner, we were about to go home when we met Lingyen their cousin and gave the kids P100 each. So instead of going home, they asked to go back to the amusement center where they played a few more games. After which, we finally went home at almost 8:00 PM where I went straight to sleep upon arriving home. I should really work on my stamina, I get tired easily lately.

But what I am most excited about Mama is that, I was able to cook for the kids the other day. I cooked Ginisang Munggo for them... whew! I thought it was just an easy dish, I was wondering as I was straining the beans, how come you were not complaining when you were cooking! I was worried too, because I thought it didn't turn out well... but as we were eating, they said that it was just fine. In fact, it was eaten up to last drop! So I can cook after all! Am now thinking of cooking more of real foods for them instead of just straight from the can to frying pan dishes, I know they need more healthy food.

I will tell you again once I cooked more real foods for them. But I know, nothing can substitute for your cooking... which are always appetizing, cause you cook them all with love.

Take care now Mama... I miss you.

I love you.
