Let the tita/ninang fascination unravel. Pasensiya na, proud lang po talaga!

1. GIO: Childhood Sweetheart

Meet Gio, my cousin from the States. Though he is being raised far away from us (in New York) by my favorite aunt ergo his mom, even though he only spent September and October of 2005 with us, even though he can be very makulit... I am simply enthralled by him. Especially that cute American accent with matching curving of the mouth whenever he pronounces things with his weird slang. Hehehe... :P

The Amboy

Bang! (A stolen shot since this kid is camera-shy)

2. RAYDON A.K.A. RAI: A boy and a friend

Raydon is always cheerful and curious of everything that I really do think he has a battery somewhere inside that cute face of his.

Doing "THE CHICKEN DANCE"

Oh boy does this boy love cars!
[FYI: He and Ren own about a hundred plus toy cars and at their tender age of 2 and 3 respectively, they could already identify the models of cars! They'd point while staring out the car window in the midst of traffic, "That's a Toyota Corolla!" "Oh, an Expedition!"]

O ano? Cuteness talaga!!!!!! Walang tatalo!!!!!!!!

3. RENZO MIGUEL: Significant [than no] Other

Ren, the older brother of Raydon, is the closest to me among these three. I can't remember just when and how it happened but we're always playing and talking. Pretty soon, he doesn't have anything but "Ninang Rachelle!!!! Ninang Rachelle!!!!!" to say every time something happens. He has a new toy, bumps his leg, is hungry, has just arrived, will go home... You name it. That's his chant! Surprisingly, I never get tired or annoyed of him the way other adults feel once truly close to a child. I find sharing all his "big moments" very fulfilling. I just love the boy.

Good Boy

Bulaga!

Tell me. Honestly. Just how many watts are there in that smile? I'd pay a hefty MERALCO bill to have that around the house all the time.

Just how lucky can a girl be? Beats having Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise as a suitor. Wouldn't trade them in for a Hollywood cutie. They're beyond Hollywood. And I'm beyond happy.
