DroolWorthy: I See RED!

Since it's still my birthday month, I think I deserve to post a piece on some of the material things I like. They are such beautiful eye candy - I don't mind just looking at them over and over again! In no particular order....

1. The Balenciaga Velo, in Coquelicot (Such a tease!). My current ultimate material wish.

2. Proenza Schouler Shoulder bag - this was a Valentine special, and I regret not remembering what it's called. It's now MIA from the website! I hope I run into this one again soon....

3. Celine Luggage Tote in Lipstick Red - this is actually Amanda Mull's bag - from the purseblog. I love how it looks against those clear acrylic chairs.

4. Yves Saint Laurent Chyc (I checked the spelling twice) in red. Classic.

5. Or maybe, for a more casual day, this YSL clutch in red patent leather.

A little late - but a happy May to everyone - for selfish reasons, it's my favorite month.

K's Point of View: Still the favored one

Saying goodbye to K on Monday mornings are particularly difficult. Today, as I led her down the stairs for breakfast, we had this conversation.

K: Mommy, will you feed me?
Me: Not today, K, mom has to go to the office.
K: Aaaaw. But I like you to stay here.
Me: Mommy has to go to office to work. Remember those ballet shoes and dress you like? Mommy has to work so I can buy those.
K: I like pink! (how easily distracted!)
Me: So you stay here with Yaya A, and mom will get ready for work now ok?
K: But mommy, I like you to stay. How about si Papa nalang? (How about Papa?)
Me: What?
K: You stay here and Papa go to office!  
(DH has a schedule that's a lot more flexible than mine.... I don't think he'd like to switch with me though!)

I wish it were that easy, K! 

Fast forward to later in the afternoon, when one Yaya asked her "if you like papa to go to office, why do you keep following him around the house?"

K: Eh kasi mama is not here. (Because mama is not here).

2 points for Mom!
