DAY 266: October 15, 2010; FRIDAY

COUNTDOWN:
7 Days to Strawberry Jam without "J"


Dear Jam,

Here you are. A bit cranky and sleepy for being waken so early off your bed. But we had to wake early up to send Daddy off to the airport. It isn't a good day for me, I am just glad Mamala was around to speak with. I think she felt it and maybe it was her coping for seeing Daddy leave, too so she and I were talking mostly on the trip to Lumbia. It wasn't good not only because he is leaving but because when he left earlier to park the bike in Carmen, you were crying in your dream. It's that painful kind of whimpering and it really tore my heart out. I had to keep my chin up to stop myself from breaking down.

Thankfully, you didn't throw any kind of tantrum when he left. You waved him casually and was in fact so eager to get into my arms. You said "Nah na" (No more) as his back disappeared into the mess of people in the entrance. Mamala also made sure you were distracted with food when we got home. We passed by PAN de PUGON where she bought you food and more food to fill you up. I am grateful to her for keeping me cheered and to you for being a good girl to me especially today. When we had lunch, you put your hands together and said "Min" for "Amen" before I could put the spoon to your mouth. I fell a slight panic of guilt when you had thought to pray without my lead.

Our pet Strawberry Jam is now a Historic Pet in PET SOCIETY and that's something worthy of my attention, whiling in depression.

JAMantic of the Day:
Here's another thing that really cheered me and it's how you answered "Where's Daddy, Kitten?" You pointed to the sky and then made a fluttering gesture with the sound of what to you were wings.

Your MAYmah,
