Infanticipating

16 December 2008


Fatima, Rica, and Me. Sisters in Christ.
(Fatima's Baby Shower from CFC)

It was nice to have the Porpios here last night. It's quite ironic that my about-to-pop-a-baby friend comes here to drop some gifts on a very bitter cold night. I miss small get togethers just like that, we used to have it often last year. I made meatball soup with spinach and mushroom, Fatima brought tilapia with tofu and cilantro. It was fun to catch up with our couple friends...

Our kids had a blast too! They watched Wall-E together, now Diego and Dora are Wall-E and EVA. They had dinner at my son's little table hehehe! They ran around the house playing tag and whatnots. Oh their giggles made the house warm and festive!

And so we discussed about the upcoming baby... how arduous it would be to be trapped in the snow on the way to the hospital. The battery could just die in the cold, etc. Then the husband shared something about his boss' experience a few years ago... he had to stop a snow mower in the high way just to help him clear his driveway because his wife is in labor! Woh! This was mainly why I don't want to give birth on a winter time.

But this isn't about winter, it's about having friends over. It lifted my spirits up. And somehow convinced me that it's okay to have another one. It won't be that bad just as long I get pregnant SOON! Hehehe!

I made a little whisper to God before I slept. I realized I never really asked for Leiko from him. I hope he grants this little Christmas wish... and if my calculations are correct Leiko will share her dad's birthday on September (and Mai's too!) hehehe ;-)
