Parties Ahead

They say Philippines has the longest Christmas celebration. With Christmas carols airing on radio stations as early as end of September, I cannot blame others if they say we have a long Christmas celebration.

And now that Christmas is really nearing, invitation to parties and celebrations are left and right. My husband has already warned me to pick my events. He is right and I am just pretending to be super mom. Of course I wanted to go to every invite I get. In fact I have been looking for boy’s clothing sale because we have been invited to a birthday party this coming second week of December. I wish there is The White Company here, their collection will fit the celebrant perfectly! But today, I found out that that party is the same time as the Christmas Party of Ayex in her ballet school! It is sad but I have to choose. Actually, I asked Ayex to choose. And of course, she wanted to be with the other ballerinas. If only we can be in the two events.

But as hubby always reminds me, the children’s body is far from an adult’s. They may not say they are tired but they are. And I do not want them to be sick when everyone else is enjoying the merriment of the season. So I will take hubby’s advice and choose the events carefully. But of course, there can be some exceptions when possible. *wink*
