Doctors for a day :)

Aside from the free consultations and medicines, one of the many advantages of having a doctor as a relative is the privilege to attend conventions. My auntie, who is a doctor, happens to be married to a doctor as well. They attend AT LEAST ONE conference annually. They check-in at hotels, and let us come and swim. This year though, my uncle's abroad, so my aunt isn't really thrilled about the convention. So, she invited me instead to attend the 49th Philippine Pediatric Society Convention as a delegate. Of course I said YES, since I can't really say NO to her; she's really nice, plus, she told me that we could take home everything we get. Knowing that was a Pediatric Society, I got excited. I was sure they'd be giving away some kids' stuff.

My aunt, of course, had two registrants, one for herself, and one for her husband.
My sister came with me, so my aunt skipped the convention, and let my daughter and sister got inside with me.
Upon entering though, one of the marshals, restricted my daughter inside, which upset me. The place was well-decorated. It was VERY CHILD-FRIENDLY; There was a rainbow,  2 castle displays, balloons and mascots everywhere. I honestly think that didn't make any sense. I mean, who would love such an environment more but kids? But I had no choice but to follow their rule, and let my daughter go. So, she just came with my aunt to the mall.

 


 

 

huge meds :)

over-sized small things never fail to amuse me :)

 

It would've been more fun if they had let my daughter in with me.

BC Bloggers Meme: Count Your Blessings!

Oh yeah!
BC Bloggers makes blogging a BLAST!
See for yourself!

Anyway, this would be my THIRD ATTEMPT to join BC Bloggers Meme.

I've been drafting posts for the previous memes, but never really finished any of those two.

Main reason?

 I have been very busy scouring from one place to another in pursuit of a language book for my daughter.

Another reason?

Ever since our laptop, which I regularly use, crashed,

the most convenient means of internet access for me would be thru our tab.

I, however, cannot upload photos on blogger there, which was unfortunate because I wanted my entries to have photos.

I could use another laptop,

but minimal usage must be observed.

I'm starting to blab again.

Haha.

Anyways, I'm not quite sure what to put.

I hit rewind, and thoroughly looked for blessings I received this past week, but it's all a blur.

Now, this is difficult.

But there's got to be something.

We are always blessed. We just fail to see it sometimes, especially the small ones, but blessings are always with us.

Proof? We have air to keep us breathing.

But for the past week, here are some of the blessings I have noticed:

1. REALIZATION - I know I have been BLESSED when it comes to my daughter. And this morning, I have come to realize another blessing I have in her. I NEVER HAD TO TEACH HER HOW TO WRITE. I helped  my little brother with his assignment earlier, and it was a headache. He can't even hold his pencil right. HAHA. And then it hit me. I never had that headache with my princess. In fact, the headache would be to restrain her from holding pens, and doodling on anything.



2. I REPAIRED HER UNIFORM - Again, about my princess. As much as possible, I don't acknowledge it whenever she gains weight. I'm not sure whether to or not to believe in 'USOG', but most of the time, she gets sick and/or loses weight when she gains. This is why I just feel blessed having to repair her uniform to give her more room to breathe. :))

3. ONE TASK DOWN - The pursuit for the language book of my daughter is overrrrr. ;)

4. MORE TIME - I thought I had sign up for this week's BC Bloggers CommEx, but the spreadsheet established me wrong. HAHA. It was a BLESSING in DISGUISE. I now have time to make up for the time spent scouring.

5. FAMILY BONDING - yeah, baby! Quality T-I-M-E will be spent with my family laterrrrr. ;)

**This list could go on forever. Blessings come our way everyday in different forms. Let's count our blessings, and embrace them! :)
