How sweet it is to be loved by you


yeah, so what?

Oh yeah man, life is sweet! Though Micro has never turned down cake, we do limit his intake of the luxuries of life. However, Lola doesn't seem to abide by that rule and takes every opportunity to indulge him. Don't worry, I've "scolded" her on her actions-- and not that Micro is in danger of childhood obesity (my son is not even in the 10th percentile in weight, people)--but because starting him this early on sweets is no good for anyone--especially for Mommy and Daddy--who really pay the price for the sugar "crash." 

Why is it that filipinos always want to 'stuff" their kids and grandkids. It's as if they never hear the words, "No, thank you. I'm full." If you've ever gone into a filipino household, you know what I mean. We bombard you with kindness and force you to eat whatever we have on hand to eat--and you can't say "no." Ever. 

Anyhoo, Micro seems to enjoy indulging in a cake that Lola got him for Easter this past year and I couldn't help but smile when I see these pictures. Because I know just how good a delicious, sweet treat really is. Besides, in life, one must afford themselves an indulgence every now and then. Because, you deserve it.


Happy Friday everybody! If you're near a Krispy Kreme today, stop by and grab your free doughnut to celebrate National Doughnut Day (only in America, right?). 

this must be what heaven tastes like
