Vivo City
Outing with Mag, SP and kids.
Our kids were all around the same age. Mag's 2002 (ds) and 2005 (dd), mine and SP's 2003 (both ds) and 2005 (mine ds, SP dd), so they got along very well with each other indeed. The moment ds1 met clarence, they begun discussing ultraman, power rangers, x-men, wolverine, spiderman, superman, what not...
But I got laughed at by Mag and SP when Clarence was holding this figurine and I said "Hey you've got ultraman!" when it was a Power Ranger he was holding. SO ok... I can't tell the difference at all... But when it came to deciphering what the 4-legged colourful animal on Mag's dd's stroller bar is, SP the zoologist couldn't tell whether it was a frog or tortoise, while I couldn't dedice if it were a tortoise or ladybug and the owner, Mag, didn't know either. Looks like toy makers these days like to confuse us.
We had lunch at Thai Express and then proceeded to Zara cos my dear friends at HC are getting a practical and useful farewell gift of a winter jacket for me!! I chose a black wool jacket, and really like it because of the high collar. I will wear it and post the photo when in Utah, and I will think of you all fondly whenever I wear it, haha.
After that it was the kids' time, so we let them play at the open air playground and then at Toys R Us. They enjoyed themselves so much horsing around together, the 3 boys clicked so well.
Although ds1 got along very well with his church friends, but they're all girls and I can see that the way he plays with girls and with boys is totally different. With boys together, they seem to have innate understanding and bonding that enables them to play (and fight) better. Maybe that's why at the younger ages, boys always stick to playing with boys and girls don't like to play with boys too. :-)
rainbows every day, do not worry for the morrow
