I went to SM City-Dasmarinas to pay a bill and buy some important stuff. As I’ve been doing before, I thought of dropping by BOOKSALE.

Before reaching the book shop, I promised myself that I’ll get just one book preferrably by John Grisham or Stephen King. But when I got there, my plan simply vanished into thin and I ended up getting these:

Last night I read an article about Toni Morrison and upon seeing Paradise I didn’t think twice in buying it. For how much? Php 45.00!! Its unread, in good condition, hardbound with dust jacket.

Since Uno and Jed learned to say the word “book”, I always look something for them. For Jed, a nursery rhyme ‘board book’ featuring The Eensy Weensy Spider with stylish holes in every page and another Curious George for Uno. Too early for a comic book? I don’t think so. Uno is attracted to different reading materials including Jollibee ads so why not a Spiderman comic book? The boys fell asleep with those reading matters beside them. Bed time stories will continue tomorrow.

Oh, the other important stuff is one of these:

By the time I was done with my shopping, i was carrying six bags, the box of the potty trainer plus my backpack. Fortunately, a good looking SM trainee [with emphasis on good looking] assisted me in carrying the bags until I reached the exit of the mall. While we were walking I thought of striking a conversation but he to be in a deep thought. I just thanked him afterwards and he went on his way back to the supermarket.

Jed was seated on my lap. I was trying to visit starfall.com so we can have our little lesson but he kept on pressing the keypad. He paused every time there was a TV commercial. When I was able to open MS-Word, I just let him do his thing. The result, his first encoded document. I saved it and I will show it to him when he is old enough. I doubt if he can tell me what is it about.

I told Jed that I’ll just get a snapshot of his toys and will return them at once. But I couldn’t convince him so he tried to grab the toys as soon as I put them in the keypad. Can anyone tell me how to cajole a 1-year-and-six-month-toddler so I can get a decent shot?
