MY GIRL IS NUMBER ONE!

Today we received a very pleasant surprise when we got my daughter, Kaye’s card from her new school at VMS… she got top honors for her class…hurrah! Hurrah! I knew she would do well in class considering that she was a valedictorian in her previous school in Kindergarten but I never had hoped she would become the top in her class…I guess the fact that she was a newcomer and was placed in the third level section this Grade One contributed to that fact, too. But even if she was top one, she failed to make it to the entire batch Top Ten…I guess most of the top students would belong to the cream section. I think her standing was only 14th or 15th for the entire Grade One…nonetheless, I am just so proud that my daughter did so well. Now, we would have to strive harder to make it to the Top Ten circle…but at least, I guess I can be assured that my daughter would belong to the Cream Section next year.

LINGGO NG WIKA @ VMS

It’s the first time for us to celebrate Linggo ng Wika with VMS and for the past few weeks I had scrambled for an appropriate attire for her to wear. I was able to finally borrow one from an officemate whose daughter was the same age and built as mine. And since they already had their celebration earlier, she willingly lent the dress so that I don’t have to buy a new one for something that my daughter would just wear for a day…

I went on leave for work today so I would be able to dress her up and put on some make-up on her. Then, we proceeded to the school for the Linggo ng Wika program. The place was small and expectedly cramped with so many stage mommies jostling for space to watch over their kids. I was content sitting at a corner and only went out front when her turn to dance arrived. My daughter looked so pretty in her yellow terno…she looked like a real dalagang Pilipina of old times.
