Smurf village app

This app is a nice and fun app. If you have Snoopy Street Fair, it’s exactly like it, but nicer, and the best part is, it’s free!

Have a nice day!

Get your Formosa cheesecake now!

We tried this the last time and it’s big, a little bit medium, but big. It is very delicious. And fair priced. (Php120 for a loaf – Daddy)

And that’s all. Keep it refrigerated. *hiccup*

Formosa Bakery is located at 518 Banawe St., Quezon City.

Nathan & Nicki’s summer playdates

Today, Nathan and Nicki are headed off to separate friends’ houses for separate summer play dates. Nathan will go to the house of Caths’ friend, R, whose kids, H&R, are good friends of Nathan’s; the three are total tech geeks, which means Nintendo DS’s, Wii’s, and PSPs all around, I imagine. Nicki, meanwhile, will playdate with the two daughters of her colleague R. This, in turn, means Barbie dolls, faux cooking opportunities, and Lego (!).

Summer marks a good time for children to playdate with friends who otherwise wouldn’t get to see them. What kind of playdates would you want your kids to go on?

Nathan enjoys praise and worship

Yesterday, I joined Nathan and his nanny Edna at the 4PM service of the church in Greenhills we attend. I say I joined them because I don’t normally get to worship with them; I’m usually up onstage as part of the worship team. That day was different, and boy!, did I have a blast!

Nathan really threw himself into the praise. For most of the songs, he was standing on a short ledge with me right behind him to support him, and he was jumping and dancing with the song. At many points, he grabbed my hands and clapped them along with the beat of the team. I was so happy my son enjoyed the praise and worship, and I do hope that he will grow up to be a phenomenal worshipper in his own right.

My vision for Nathan

Last night, Cathy told me Nathan asked her when we were going to the ‘Greenhills church.’ I was thrilled because I took it as a sign that Nathan was enjoying Sunday school. (Cathy may have doused those hopes by saying he was enjoying the ‘Mommy time,” because he and Cathy have to walk around while waiting for me to finish singing. I still think he enjoys Sunday school.)

Regardless, I do have my own little vision for my four-year-old. Nathan’s naturally bubbly personality easily makes him a great kid to have in Sunday school. I imagine him welcoming new kids to Sunday school the way he usually does, by greeting the child “Oh, HI!” then offering him a share of whatever is in his hand at the time (crayons, chips, a toy, whatever). He’s cooperative and funny, oh-so-funny!

My son is old enough to engage kids his age.

Cathy and I claimed Nathan for Jesus the minute we knew she was pregnant, and I will do my best as his Dad to be a good role model so he’ll have someone to emulate. I know Jesus will use him when the time comes. Nathan’s gonna be a world-changer, by God’s grace!
