I Saw A Ballet Presentation

Last night, I saw a ballet presentation at the UP Visayas Auditorium.
The performers were no less than the members of Ballet Philippines in honor of the UPV graduating students and their parents.
The auditorium was full pack.
So I could see the performance, Tatay Mel had to carry me while he sat on his chair. When I got tired in that position, I decided to stay at the alley. There I saw the whole stage, and the whole performance.
But then I noticed that there were other children behind me. They were sitting on the floor, while I was standing.
I enjoyed the dancing.
Before we left for the presentation, my Tatay Mel told me to look at the dancers carefully so I could teach my Tita Chen-Chen, my new Yaya, ballet.

Am I Smart?

Am I smart, let me count the ways!
Two days ago, Nanay Bing prepared leche flan.
This is my favorite.
While eating supper, Nanay Bing gave me about a platelet size leche flan.
Of course I was so happy to have it.
While eating, Nanay Bing asked me where to go with?
Would it be with Tatay Mel?
Then out of the blue, I asked Tatay Mel: do you know how to cook?
Everybody just laughed.
Tatay Mel said that he knows how to cook rice and boil eggs.
Two nights ago, while we were taking our supper, and we talked about eggs.
This is also one of my favorite foods.
Tatay Mel asked me if dogs lay eggs.
I said no, only birds lay eggs.
How about people, do they lay eggs? Tatay Mel asked me.
I said, "only birds, I said!"
But Tatay Mel said, some fish also lay eggs and so are the crocodiles.
Thank you Tatay Mel, I said.

Primary Complex

For almost two months now, I have been suffering from intermitent cough.
And my Mommy has noticed that I have been losing weight. And my appetite.
I have been taking my cough syrup, and my vitamins. And lately, I was enhaling ventulin for supposedly my "asma". But still I have been losing my appetite.
So last Monday, my Mommy brought me to my pediatrician, and I was asked to have a test to find out whether I have a primary complex. After three days, went back to my doctor.
Result: Positive.
I was given three different medicines for two months.
How did I get it?
My Mommy told me that my Tita Inday who was taking care of me while my my Mommy was at work has TB. And perhaps because one of my playmates, our neighbor, also has this problem: primary complex.
It's good that my sickness was immediately noticed.
But I am strong. I can recover my old health.
Thanks to my Nanay Bing and my Mommy who are so supportive of me.
