So, you wanna know something?

"You wanna know why?"
"You wanna know something else?"

"You wanna know why?"

"You wanna know something else?"
and it continues like that. On and on and on....with random information inserted between each "you wanna know."

I remember my mom telling me that I was always saying "Why?" "How come?" "Because why?" Apparently I was more of a questioning child and Holden is more of a telling child. It is utterly cute and perfectly Holden. Nate and I grin over his head every time one of the tirades of the "wanna knows'" begin and trust me we are grinning a lot because not a day goes by!
Well, you wanna know something else? Tomorrow morning bright and early we are going here:


Ah yes, my lovely gorgeous addiction known as Boracay. 60 minutes on the plane to spend 4 days relaxing on the fine white sand. I am hoping that it doesn't do much of this:
but even if it does it won't matter. Do you wanna know why? Because we will be out of Manila. Out of the smog and the people and the city and the chaos. This certainly is one of the benefits of living here.

You have a rough life, my dear! Here's my only question -- how does Nate get that much time off work? Is it a Phillipino thing?

Have fun!

Looks like you are having fun. Check out my new family blog. We had a good time for the 4th of July.

Julie, I only WISH Nate had off every Filipino holiday, there is one almost every other week! We just schedule our trips around the long American holiday weekends so he only has to take one or two days off.
