Nagising ako at "hala mag tatanghali na!" Saad ko at bumangon na ako mula sa pag kakahiga "l-love wake up na it's 10 o'clock na" saad ko sakaniya at dahan dahan minulat ni sandro ang kaniyang mata

"Good morning love!" Bati ni sandro saakin

"Good morning too!" Saad ko at bumangon na ako at nag tungo sa banyo upang makapag hilamos and toothbrush na. Sa bahay nalang kami maliligo dahil naligo naman din kami kagabi plus para masundo na namin yung kids.

After toothbrush and washing our face ay nag check-out na kami sa hotel all goods na kaya naman sumakay na kami sa sasakyan.

"Argh late akong nagising" pag reklamo ko habang naka tingin sa paligid

"It's fine.. wala namang class yung mga bata kaya ayos lang yun" saad naman niya habang busy sa pag da-drive.

"Pero kasi i promised that maaga tayong uuwi" saad ko sakaniya

"Love don't worry it's alright" pag kalma niya saakin kaya nag phone nalang ako.

Nakarating na kami sa tapat ng bahay nila mom and pops si sandro nalang daw tatawag sa mga bata at mag papa-alam kila mom and pops and one thing kasama nga pala nila pops sila anna and simon dito sa bahay dahil hindi naman na nag pagawa ng bahay si simon at gusto rin nila mom na mag stay sila simon kasama nila kaya lang wala yung mag asawa at si art ngayon nag mall i guess.

"Hi mommy!!" Masayang bati ni Mallixa and she even kissed my cheeks gumawa siya ng paraan kahit na nasa backseat sila.

"Hello baby" saad ko naman sakaniya at nginitian ko ito "Thank you and bye mom and pops!" Paalam ko sa mga ito i opened the window nalang nag paalam narin ang mga apo nila sakanila.

"Mom why are you late??" Pag tatanong ni Ford saakin

"Because late kaming nagising we're sorry for that" saad ko sakaniya "Have you eat na??" I asked them

"Yes, breakfast" sagot ni fierro saakin at nginitian nalang nila ako hanggang sa nag drive na si sandro pauwi sa bahay.

We arrived home safely we don't have driver here kasi maid lang then pag papasok ang kids sa school i'll drive for them.

"What do you want for lunch??" I asked them, naka-upo sila ngayon sa couch nag ke-kwentuhan na.

"I want some siniganggang!" Saad ni Apollo naging favourite nila yon because when i was pregnant of him sinigang by sandro ang pinag lihian ko noon.

"Yeeeeee!" Pag sang-ayon naman nung tatlo well mahilig talaga sila sa Filipino foods especially pag dating sa ulam.

"But sinigang by daddy!" Saad agad ni Apollo

"Yeah sinigang by your dad! Go daddy sands cook some siniganggang for us!" Pang a-asar ko dito pero totoo naman siya talaga ang mag luluto.

"Tsk hahaha okay fine!" Saad ni sandro at tumungo na sa kitchen sumama si Apollo at Mallixa well alam na? Alam na kung sino ang malapit kay sandro! Walang iba kundi yung panganay at bunso.

"Hi poppa!" Bati saakin ni Mallixa she calls me dad, poppa and daddy but yeah it's up to her naman.

"Oh hey there my little princess" i greeted her back and give her some forehead kiss "What are you doin' here huh?" I asked her

"I wanna watch you cooking and wanna help you too" she said and smiled

"Dad me too! I want to help" Apollo said so i smiled because they really want to help even though i don't ask for any help.

"Sure sure! So Mallixa you wash the veggies and kuya do you know how to cut vegetables??" I said and asked Apollo

"Yeah dad into oval?" He asked me because it was a radish for sinigang and some veggies pa.

"Yeah just don't make it into cubes hahaha" i told him and he laughed

"Dad what do you call this again??" Mallixa asked me while she's busy washing the veggies "and this one was your favourite?" She added

"Sinigang na baboy with Gabi is a Filipino pork soup with taro cooked in a sour broth. Sinigang is my comfort food, and one of the first few dishes that I tried to make way back when I was starting to learn how to cook."

"Ohh" her reaction and her mouth turned into 'o'

"Dad when i was young like 6? I don't know what exact age i was back then when mom cooks sinigang it's delicious!"

"You know naman your mom is good in everything that's why i love her so much" i told them and i smiled

After that i start cooking the sinigang and i'm just waiting it to be cooked and serve it into the dine-in table.

"Woooh! Smells good poppa!" Mallixa's side comments she here by my side still observing with his kuya Apollo.

Busy yung tatlo doon sa kitchen kaya naman kami dito tamang daldalan lang tamang tawanan.

"Mommy are you going to attend my music class??" Ford asked me

"Of course darlin' i am!" Nakangiti kong sagot sakaniya "I'm excited for it na nga eh" i added

"Really!" He sounds so excited that i am attending his music class and bakit naman hindi! I have to show a support for my son.

"Of course!!" I said and give him some cheeks kiss. All of them have different class like Apollo have sports class while ford have music class and fierro have a sports class also and my only girl have Ballet class. But all of them had a Taekwondo class for self- defense tho.

Ayon na nga nag kwentuhan lang kami hanggang sa tawagin na kami ni Mallixa

"Mom! Brothers let's go and eat" Mallixa said so we followed her to the dine-in area it's our lunch!

"Wowwww! Galing talaga ng daddy sandro na yan hahaha" saad ko sakaniya but yeah he's getting good at cooking.

"Tsk hahaha let's go and eat na" pag-aya naman ni sandro saamin.

"Our prayer leader for today kuya Apollo" i said and yeah before eating we always set a prayer.

"Let's put our hands together and bow down our heads" he said and we did that "Bless us, O God. Bless our food and our drink. Since you redeemed us so dearly and delivered us from evil, as you gave us a share in this food so may you give us a share in eternal life." He prayed "In Jesus name we pray" he added

"Amen!" Sabay sabay naming saad at nag umpisa na kaming kumain ng lunch

"Wow dad! It's delicious!!" Saad ni Mallixa

"My faveeee" Apollo said after sipping some soup on his bowl

"I love it mahal!" Saad ko naman sakaniya syempre papahuli ba ako.

"Thanks dad for cooking" saad ni Ford sakaniya at kumain muli..

"It was good daddy" saad naman ni Fierro

"Aw thank you i love you all" he said and smiled at us.

After that ay kumain nalang kami ng kumain we really enjoyed the Sinigang by sandro.
