family get together

We just got home from a despedida party for the husband’s cousin. It was tiring but I was happy eating all the seafoods.

I was sitting with the young ones (they were together last night clubbing, I was invited but didn’t go with them. Yeah, I’m such a killjoy) when I noticed how white the skin of my niece was. I bet it’s a bummer trying to get a tan, and she confirmed that indeed, she just gets red after sunbathing. But I told her she can use tan spray, tan towel and the like. She said she was advised the same by friends but hasn’t tried.

There came also the party coordinator of the debut that we attended the previous weekend. I had the chance to get some ideas for my son’s birthday, which I haven’t really started preparing yet. Oh shocks!

My daughter had fun playing, dancing and singing with her (second degree) cousin. I saw them holding hands while singing. How sweet. These simple things that made my daughter happy, make me happy.
