feeling the summer heat

I admit that "mother" is overly glorified by our society. Reams of paper and reels of films have expressed the love of a mother. But as Oprah Winfrey says:

"Biology is the least of what makes
someone a mother."

I strongly agree =) But I won't bore you with my thoughts about motherhood. I have something else more interesting to share. To celebrate MOTHER's DAY, Tito Alex and Tita Stella treated the family for a pool party. They rented this newly opened resort called R&R. It's just a few winks away from our house in Novaliches so the 10AM-5PM dip in the pool is so sulit. Plus there's not much of travel time involve that can tire you so we still look and feel fresh when we got there. It's a big pool and there's only 27 of us who came. Too bad Russell and Kuya Rommel missed it =( LJ isn't there too. Just the same, we enjoyed the short dip, the food, the sun and most especially the time to bond as one big family.

Since the whole resort is all ours to explore, everyone seemed to enjoy the day. The girls are busy with the food (preparing and eating them too), the boys have their overflowing supply of beer, the kids are in the pool from start to finish, Jackee is glued to the Magic Sing microphone... and me, oh well... I'm busy with what I do best =)

I wonder how it feels like to have a swimming pool right in your backyard. Hehe... day dreaming, huh!?! It was a short dip, but relaxing indeed. Heartfelt THANK YOUs to Tito Alex and Tita Stella!!! Hopefully we can do this again some other time =)

Oh... I have to go. I have a sleep over bonus at R&R with Jackee. Room 3. Yippee!!! So we're going back there (after SHOP duty) for a goodnight sleep. I wonder if we can still use the pool for a night dip... hmmmnn. I'll give you updates tom for sure =)

some are scolding mothers,
