This is a quick update. Today, I have received a letter from Maria’s school requesting for hearing and vision screening. She already had these requirements during registration but they have asked again. The reason for this request is that, Maria is gifted and is being tested to be in a gifted program.

My husband and I decided to send Bianca to a Pre-k program. She is attending the same school that Maria went to last year. We enrolled Bianca in a 3-day-class. She will go to school every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Two weeks ago, her school had an open house for the parents of the new students. Bianca was very excited about going to school, because her Ate Maria was going and she could go too. I had just finished dressing Bianca, and I put her, ‘Dora the Explorer’, backpack on her. She was very excited to be wearing it. And even though she was about to get into her car seat, she...

I was very confident that the diet pills would work; and I became dependent on them to take care of my weight problem without exercise. After I spent a lot of money for diet pills, I began to realize that none of them work. Last year, after my vacation in Philippines, I gained 15 pounds.
