Milestone Memoir 2009

September 30, 2009

Dear Baby Kitten,

I'm glad you took your time to sleep because yesterday, you were just too restless to sleep for more than 45 minutes. It was your fever and it's because of your other teeth attempting to come out beside the other one that's long been out since you turned eight months. But as soon as your temperature was all back to normal and stable, you were back to your dramatics.

But before that, let's talk about the activity on the 28th. Mrs. Ketkai invited us to join the Chinese Community in the celebrating the Feast of San Lorenzo Ruiz (St. Lee to the Chinese) in their Gusa Parish. Yes, we met their lot and you especially like Mr. Goking, who is presently a City Councilor and who is hoping to run for Congress. It was more than just hi-hello between the two of you; it went from exchanging smiles to gripping and then he was so doting on you because he gave up his bottled water and citrus fruit to you! That's so sweet! I bet you thought him to be another grandpa of yours! So Mommy took the opportunity to ask him for a photo op which he gladly obliged.

Then early yesterday morning, Daddy called. Yipee! He said it was the only time he could chance a call. I'm glad that though at first you were hesitant to respond to his "Jamjams" you finally gave him a couple of "uhmm", "ahhms" and "wwwaaahhh!!". Yes, you threw a tantrum that he just ahd to say how naughty you are as he can hear the hint in your cry. And yes, how naughty you've become, I guess because you know that everybody doted on you and willingly gave in to your wishes. Haay! Naughty Kitten! You threw tantrums during the Feast of San Lorenzo Ruiz and threw a tantrum in Kagay-anon Restaurant in the Feast of the Archangels. Because you knew that somehow Father Raul took you to be the apple-of-his eyes and Kuya Alfred, Limketkai's trusted all-around events man. You especially threw tantrums when I ate and I didn't give your portion as soon as you possibly wanted it. As if you weren't given your part, you just wanted to get your face stuffed, really. HAHA! So there's the lechon, a cupcake, a chocolate-coated cream puff, we even got to the point of giving you the empty bottle of beer to subdue you. HAHAHAH! The cuteness factor!

Wow! That's almost 12 hours of sleep. From 2100Hrs to 0900Hrs! Keep at it Baby!

Love, Mamimeow
