“The only difference perhaps, was, I was cool, I would not panic, and I would take each situation differently”

–that’s why i admire you the most sexy mom, the way you handle parenting situations like this one. i realize, it’s Ok for a parent to worry, but not to a point of being paranoid.

sexy mom: yes, dear, and really, patience is an “art”, we can make our way through it.

I know you have bright, gifted children, Dine. Bright, gifted are not really the norm. Congrats! My goodness the tongue stunts are awesome. Buti nagpakuha ng picture. I have a daughter who can touch her back with her toes. Lemme see .. where is she … I gotta get it right .. ay, she’s at boardiing school pala. Later, I will really describe how she does it.

There was this test that my friend emailed me — “How normal are you?” I was happy to find out i was far from normal. Normal is boring, I say.

I will read your other entries later. Oh my, you are very prolific.

I’ve only known Dyangelo (as we like to call him) for over a year and I have not once seen him as anything but abnormal and that’s a good thing, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to call him a friend. I’m a bit off my rocker too, see. You raised a good son Dine, and I mean that with every fiber of my abnormal self.

thanks, Naomi. as with most statements, the word “normal” is relative. what may be normal to me may not be normal to another. you are right, we should not “label” our children. i am using the word “abnormal”, mind you, with sense of humor in mind, and with the permission of “the 7″.

what is the definition of “normal” anyway? There could just be passing phases in a child’s growth. I try not to label my children. I’ve made that mistake with my second daughter once . I thought she was slow but it turns out she’s brillant.
