She's my daughter, the eldest.
I'm so happy and proud for her because she had passed the test for continuing her study at the best Jesuit high school here, in our city, Kolese Loyola. It will started on June.
Hmm...time fast so quickly for me! Still captured in my mind how cute she was as a little girl. But now....she's taller than me! To my eyes she's getting on the way becoming a 'young woman' already.
She heart drawing sketches and love playing Looklet online lately (fashion creating game).
Getting to know what she heart in from time to time always interesting to me.
This pic is created by her. Sometimes she plays editing her pics with Picassa, trying every effect.
I'm so lucky to have her :)

Today I collect some of her pics and create a new album of hers in my flickr.
Amazing to see how she's growing up so fast from baby till now!
Happy birthday, Natalie.
I'm so thankful to have a daughter like you.
There's no other who could fill your shoes.
I love you very much!

Daughter (Dochters)
My hubby sent this song of Marco Borsato via email to me last night.
I like the song and the words is beautiful. If you have a daughter you should hear this and read the English lyrics I've translated. Just beautiful...
I think that's not only about how fathers feel to see his daughter has grown up, but moms too.
This is the English translation:
Quarter past seven on Sunday morning
I hear a voice very softly to me asking
Are you awake, Daddy?
Get cozy with down?
Do you just work or are you free today?
And then you go with me on stage?
Ohhh, what time is fast
Yesterday I saw her for the first time she was here in m `n arms
What she is beautiful and what is the time her
I `m n blink eyes and see how they are always a bit changed
But how big they may be
In my eyes it always remains small
Quarter past seven on Sunday morning
I hear the front door very gently opening
And I hesitate to fall asleep, she is at home
I `r much prefer to go, but she had asked me if I do not want to stand
They now find its way home
And ohh, what the time is fast
Yesterday I saw her for the first time she was here in m `n arms
What is she pretty
What's the time her
I `m n blink eyes and see how they are always a bit changed
But how big they may be
In my eyes it always remains small
And sometimes, when I `m n blind
We walk together "beach,
Her hand in mine
And then she pauses time
Is the weather just like when
And she'll need me
I love her
As she was
I love her
Quarter past seven on Sunday morning
Is it my voice that makes her gently awake
Today is your big day
What she is beautiful and what is the time her
I `m n blink eyes and see how her heart is good for another is
But wherever they may be
In mind she is here with me
In my eyes it always remains small

Today is My Girl’s 13th Birthday
Each year on your birthday,
I think about how thankful and fortunate I am
To have you in my life.
I always have a place reserved
Just for you in my heart
I want you to know
You're really very special
And each year my feelings
Continue to grow
Warm wishes and love
I'm sending to you on your 13th birthday
I wish all your dreams will come true
Just like the way you imagined it,
Or better.
Never give up on your dreams
I'm sure being such a daughter like you
That is generous, kind, loving and true
make you always be as bright as the stars
That shines above

Natalie's Drawing Sketches


My daughter, Natalie love drawing so much! I often see her drawing on her sketch book or even on any paper she could found at home. My hubby and I often amazed by her talent in drawing. Nowadays she likes to do Manga drawing, a kind of Japanese comic style sketches. Here are some of her works..

I don't know what's her reaction after I post them to my blog.
Sometimes she get a little "mad" when I or her father enter her room quietly just wanna see her beautiful pencil sketches.. Well, maybe that's a teenage swing mood :)

Her First Nails Polished
Last night, like the other usual nights I was reading a story book to Ian before his bed time. He chose ‘The Saturn’. Thanks God, he chose a new one! I’ve already read the same ‘lift the flap’ book of “Farming” six nights in a row before! Maybe that would be the first night of ‘The Saturn’ before reading it over and over again.. :)
We only have 2 bedrooms for the 3 kids, so Ian as the youngster must sleep with his big Sis since he never get to sleep on time when he sleep in his brother’s bedroom (Almost “forbidden” to put the 2 boys in one room for sleeping together although their ages almost 7 years apart).
After read the book I have to pass my daughter’s bed to turn off the lamp. At a glance I saw her nails sparkling by the lamp light. I took a look at her nails and asked spontaneous to her,
“Did you polish your nails?”
With a shy and a little bit guilty face she nodded. Didn’t know how to react to this situation, I looked closely to her nails and said, “Nice color, but how did you get it?” (I don’t have any, you know..haha..poor mom!)
“My friend asked me to try her new nail polish at school yesterday”, she answered.
Lucky me she polished her nails with soft pink *almost nude* color. Good taste!
As a matter of fact I was a little bit surprised about her colored nails Gee…it was a new beginning of her teen’s era. I almost forgot she’ll become 13 the next two months.
Last night was my first ‘cosmetic experience’ with her. I believe there will be another in the future.
What should I do? ;(
