Kids Say...Star!

I commended Zel (12) and Kel (10) for their narration for their class presentation during the Dec. 24, 2009 Sunday School Christmas program.  I told them that their narration was very clear.

"Thanks, Mommy," Zel answered, "although it was a bit hard because it was in Filipino."

"And I was very careful to pronounce the words right!" Kel added. 

Ariel was also excited "I also did some narration for our Sunday School class presentation...did you hear the star?"

"Oh, yes, Daddy!" Kel quickly replied, "we know it's you..."

Pause.

"...the star sounded old!"

Laughter.

Kids Say...Sisters!



One evening at home...

"Let's put up a band and call it Santamaria Sisters, with all of us in it!" Kel suddenly declared.
"But you are just two sisters!" Ariel remarked.
"Oh, me and Ate are sisters. Mommy can be our sister." Kel casually replied.
"And how about Daddy?" I asked.
"It's ok. Majority wins!"
Kel gives her joker-face look.  Zel smiles. I laugh.  And Ariel shakes his head.
