Upon receiving two lovely shirts from her Auntie Geraldine, she showed them to her dad.  MBS: Daddy, wear this. MH: Daddy won't fit. The shirt is too small. MBS: Okay, Daddy. Let's wait until you get small nalang .  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh yeah, MBS has a pet turtle she named by herself. The turtle's name is S.I.O.  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So far, she enjoyed eating Hizon's ensaymada and mocha cake.

(Mommy, where is Di Ku Kong [what she calls her great uncle]?) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MBS sees me bring home Potato Corner and rushes to me. She has a wide smile on her face. She doesn't touch it though. Later on, she goes to me and asks, "Mommy, who is the fries for?" When I answer that its f...

It might be because I'm usually the disciplinarian or maybe because I say "NO" to most of her requests, but this conversation happened while I was in the room: MBS: Daddy, can I play with the pink one?

At 2 years and 9 months, my daughter has learned the art of strategy. @_@
