Matt’s Prayer for His Wound

At night, I always* prompt  Matt to say a  prayer before going to sleep. He’d long memorized “Angel of God” and he frequently says this as his bedtime prayer.  (*that is, when I don’t forget myself)

Recently, there was one instance when he changed his prayer.  This was when he had a swollen wound on his left knee.  His prayer went […]

I Know Better Now

Going back to day I picked my son in school, I have to take note that after the class was dismissed, I saw my son Matt “transformed” from quiet to active and playful. Infact, the moment they were out to the activity area, he immediately engaged in a throwing match with his best pal, KJ. They […]

I’m Ok But…

Upon his request (before going to school), I picked my from his school today.  I was few minutes early so I had time to observe Matt, who was quietly sitting Indian style with his classmates. So glad to see this because I know how active Matt is.
After the class was dismissed, the teacher assistant came up […]

My Special V-Day Gift

Though Valentine’s Day is still some days away, I already received an early gift from my son.

He then handed me a red box (which used to contain chocolates) and even […]

And then he looked at me,  eyed my hair with amusement and […]

Qtime With My Son

This morning, we went to see Matt’s pedia to have his follow-up check up. As expected (and hoped for), the doctor gave him a clearance. Praise God!
We went to the mall afterwards to pick up some supplies. I always love bringing my son to the mall/to the groceries -because he is a pleasant company and a willing helper. […]

A-ok

Looking at the amount of medicine left in the bottle, today could be the last day of Matt’s medication (for his tonsilitis). :-)  Am glad; real glad that he’s back to his active and “eater” self. :-)  And I believe my son is, too since he doesn’t like  taking that medicine despite its fruit punch flavor. And […]
