Family Day at The Fort

Yesterday (Saturday), we went to The Fort to play baseball and frisbee. First, we dropped of Jenn at Victory at 3pm because she had to practice together with the whole music ministry as they would sing the following day. Then, we parked the car and looked for a vacant lot near the NBC Tent.

Kitkat is good at hitting the ball, and Boing is very good at running after it ;)

After playing baseball, I taught them pinoy football, which I used to play when I was a small boy.

Here are some of the pictures taken at The Fort:

I told the kids to thank Papa God for making it a great day to play there because it rained so hard the previous day.

We didn't just cherish the quality time we had, but also the opportunity to play where there won't be any space to fly a kite anymore in 10 years or less.

After the games, Kitkat, Boing, Yaya Merlyn and I headed straight to Go Nuts Donuts. The kids enjoyed watching how donuts are made. Of course, it was more enjoyable for them to eat it :)

After eating, we fetched their mom. Instead of going back to the lot, we went to the playground of Market Market, which is just right across the Every Nation Building.

This is what Boing usually tells us when he would like to make lambing: "Dad, Mom, can we go to the playground, and ride the rollercoaster, and see the monsters, and pop the balloon, and eat ice cream?" He is referring to Fiesta Carnival in Cubao were we went on his 4th birthday together with his Ninong Olie and Ninong Vin's families. The Market Market playground is one of his favorites.

I would always tell my children that they will be better than their parents. I was surprised to see Boing climbing up this spiral thing by himself! I told Jenn I never did something like that when I was young. Well, I guess that's part of what Magz said about boing being a "Braveheart". I'm sure Kitkat and Boing will do far more than what Jenn and I will be able to accomplish in our lifetime. They will grow up to be leaders after God's own heart and He will bless them with wisdom, good health, long life and more than what they could ever think or ask for. They will make Papa God smile by bringing many many souls into His kingdom and equipping these people to do the same. This is their purpose. Their tools are whatever they have, including their skills.

Oh, by the way, the picture on the right is a proof that throwing and catching frisbee is not that easy. Nakakapagod din pala :) We are thinking of making this as our official sport hehehe.
