Lanz's Impromptu Birthday Party

March 3, 2002 ... hay it was just like yesterday ... na nag-labor ako ng more than 12 hours ... na lahat ng saints pati na si st. jude (for the hopeless), isinisigaw ko sa sakit ng tiyan ko, balakang ko, at ng buong katawan ko (haayyy). Mantakin mo, 6 years old na ang baby bubut ko ... sus and if you closely watch him, he is baby no more. How fast time flies talaga.



Anyways.

The Morning of Lanz's Birthday

Lanz woke up in a really, really good mood. Shempre naman he got what he has always wanted, a skateboard! Thanks to tita meg and to tito boyc the smile on Lanz's face never faded since the moment he got hold of it. The phone kept on ringing because of Lanz's birthday well-wishers. Their calls added to lanz's good mood. No party plans for today. Lanz and Lexi will have a joint party on the 16th, its going to be a bit big so nothing for today. Just to make him feel more special on his birthday, lloyd and I let him bring his psp to shool, with this gesture he felt super.

Midnoon

I decided to cook spaghetti for lanz, para naman ma-feel ng anak ko na birthday nya. So off I went to the grocery with joan and my little princess lexi. Habang namimili ako, naisip ko na gawa ko na rin mga anak ko ng special ice cream, the one that they've been requesting from me kaso they caught cough and colds kaya hindi pwede. Tapos bumili na rin ako ng mga meat, chicken at kung anu-ano pa. Nung nasa counter ako, isip ko bili na din ako ng cake para naman may i-blow yung anak ko. Tapos yun na yun. Eh nung nasa goldilocks naman ako, naisip ko naman dapat fair, since sa 16 lanz and lexi ang celebration, dapat ngayon din lanz and lexi din. So i bought a bigger cake and 2 candles, isang 6 and isang 3.



When I got home, i told limmuel to bring his daughter janelle, para naman may bata. Ay, pati na rin mga kids ni patrick, icko and mika. Pati sila edwin and his kid. Tapos I texted tina and angel, na din. And then I got my hands to work. With barely an hour to cook everything i had in mind, all-time favorite spaghetti, chicken pandan, curried vegetable lumpia, and fried chicken, super pressure. Buti na lang my girls, joan and jinky, are very much trained to adjust to my whims kaya hayun super naging mabilis ang trabaho namin.

Maraming salamat sa mga nakapunta. Enjoy!
