Dear Jam, Baby Jam,
It's been a long time since I wrote because I've honestly been postponing. I've been postponing until I have pooled enough significant things I've done with you and myself and/or for you and myself because there simply are days when I'd do nothing. Well, I've done a tad lot more since.
First, your Ninang Charissa and I went out of our (unemployed) ways to sell our handicrafts and old clothes in a Portia Sorority tent during the Xavier Days. I didn't go to (study) XU, neither did your Ninang Jai for we both felt that it was too...(not us) well, don't take our word for it because that's where Mamilou graduated from. Thanks to her Student Assistant Scholarship.
I wasn't as lucky as your Ninang Charissa, though. I felt she was luckier because she was "with" a pregnant woman. He He he! I was her lucky charm in a way. We sold nothing, you and I. But I did name the handicraft batch after you and me - Strawberry Jam*.
Second, I bought your hygiene kit, bought your bottle sterilizer pot and embroidered your cap-mitten-booties set, which leaves me with one more set to embroider.
Third, your Didi called earlier today and he said he has a gift for you - and it's our little secret that we have something for him, too. ;)
Well, I'm going to roceed without numbering the sequence - Mamilou came from Bohol and Manila...what a jet-setter life! From vacation to a career in Manila and she's just so happy - she deserves it, you know. Your Ninang Majal thought you were out into the world already and she was blabbing the nonsense of why I din't tell her. She got the scolding! Haha!
Ooh! It's hot Baby Jam! Ibought a new stand fan from our savings because it will be much needed when you and your Didi arrives. But then again, it's still so warm. Isn't it December? What's wrong with the climate these days? I'm gonna stop here. My beads of sweat have managed to make a jewelry piece around my neck. Oh! I almost forgot! After our America's Next Top Model Mania, we have Project Runway fever! It's nice but I didn't get to buy the two newer seasons. I'm planning to review some old favorites like the Harry Potter series and then some... :D
From your Mimi
