original page yesterday






how this happened? the picture profile of this page is from one of my albums! the other small picture (with the arrow is my daughter's picture).

so weird. it's the first time i saw this kind of glitch.



something wrong?



others used to have coffee or tea or milk for breakfast.
i used to have my mouse for breakfast, especially when the kids are still sleeping.
the "not usual" here is the cake! :)

after christmas

Jaki's birthday is on the 27th. we were used to celebrate christmas on the 26th since sometimes even christmas day, my husband works. December 26 is a holiday in italy (Santo Stefano). 27th is a Monday (means working day), so we celebrated Jaki's birthday this Sunday.



scene stealer Zendra. she wants to blow the candle too.




no visitors, simple but fun!

overwhelmed



HURRAY! ZENDRA ARRIVED in THE FINALS. UNFORTUNATELY SHE DIDN'T WIN. THE CASTING and VOTING STARTED LAST OCT. 25, 2010 until DEC. 15, 2010. I only knew about the contest on NOV. 29, 2010. A BIT LATE FOR gathering VOTES.
But ARRIVING IN the FINALS IS AN ACCOMPLISHMENT already. THERE ARE 815 kids in the contest! (Italy & Spain)
(The other one with the sign is my friend's daughter, Elena, who arrived in the finals too)

ONLY 5 SHOULD BE THE FINAL WINNERS, but the Judges can't decide between 2 kids. Hence became 6!

THANKS EVERYONE WHO HAD PATIENCE IN THE VOTING PROCESS. Italian is not so easy.
