                Dave, my nephew just memorized his Alphabet! I was so happy for him, that at 3 years of age, he learned a lot of things already. I mean, I taught him couple of tricks already when he was young; like when I say,“Nasan ako?” He’d answer back with, “Nasa puso mo.” He calls me, “Tito Batista”, “Pare”, and now “Daddy”. But this one’s different. It’s English Alphabet! I mean, for a 3 year old, it’s like naming 26 strange lines and curves for the first time, that’s not easy. At age three, your child has the capacity to recognize letters on sight. By age four, according to the National Center for Education Statistics, 43 percent of children are proficient in recognizing letters by their shape (http://www.livestrong.com/article/105819-literacy-skills-3yearold/#ixzz1CMyjhmQx). Well, he recognized their shapes and memorized all of them in a short span of time! Even though he’s like the usual 3-year-old kid that you see at your neighbor's house – oftentimes makulit, matigas ulo, makulit, and… super makulit; he can be cute and sweet din naman. I am, and will always be so proud of him. Probably because, I became a part of his success, that’s why it made me feel as if it was also my success. In all fairness to my cousins and Tita, they never gave up teaching Dave; props to Kevin Macrohon, for teaching Dave all-day long. To think that the only thing we used for teaching was a pen and paper, no fancy books and alphabet songs; man he's quite amazing. It became even funnier the other night, when we saw Dave reciting his alphabet while still asleep! Haha!

It is always an accomplishment to see our loved ones attain success. They say once you felt happy for a person, that’s joy flowing unto you. So I encourage you to continue inspiring people and bring joy to each and every person that you know. Not only has it satisfied their hearts, but also yours.

Testimony:  Joy is far better than Happiness.

Life Lesson: Patience is a virtue.

Godly passion: Inspire people. Share a word of love.

Good news: There are so many things in life to be thankful for.
