MM#66: This I Give You. . .

Mommy Moments day once again and Thanks to Chris for this sweet meme that every mom bloggers really enjoy.

Today, it's all about the things,value or tradition that we passed on to our kids.

Anyway, this are the toys that my FIL sent last week ,together with card and the birthday money for Kendrick's birthday.  It's not a new toy but the value is priceless,why? Because it's husband's old  toys.I'm just hoping that Kendrick will take good care of it as well so he can pass it along to his future kids.

Me on the other hand, if there's anything that I gave to my children, it's the love of reading.

and because of that, they are both now a reader that sometimes I regret because they can't passed a night without me reading two books for them,lol!

Shopping Day!!

We will go shopping today for their school stuff as we promised the boys,  as I told them that this is also the day (actually yesterday)  that they will going to get their monthly allowance from the government. (Yup! each of them received $200 monthly from the government,that's how they do it here in Canada regardless of the family's income, unlike in US, you need to be "poor" before you can qualify for any government benefits. )  Basically, the only things that we need to buy is clothes, as I already took care of their school backpacks a few months ago,even before their summer break,I already started buying their bags and their lunchbags.Regarding school supplies, they don't need it, the school provided everything, as in literally everything,from pencils,crayons,coloring books,books, as in EVERYTHING!,seriously,the only thing that the kids have to do is to show up in the school's front door. lol! The school will give each of them what they call Agenda Book, it's a big notebook which basically what the teacher use to communicate with parents, that's where they put all the notes for parents and the boys activity,but all the test papers,reviewers and everything is well-provided and have to stay in school unless it needs a parents signature. I told my husband that we will buy Kendrick just one pack of crayons,so his bag is not totally empty, lol!I really feel bad to those young students in the Phils because their bag is so darn heavy!!!as if they have the whole school in it!  Here,  the only thing you can find at my boys bag is,like I said, their agenda book,lol!all the other school accessories have to be in their classroom.

I actually received the letter from the mail today for Kendrick's schedule and all the papers that I need to sign, like his permit for computer usage,field trip,and any other activity that they can come up with.

I am looking forward for another exciting and great school year for my boys. :)
