June 15, 2000

Mabuhay!*

We have been home in Manila for almost two weeks now and boy, what a schedule we have had so far!... There's definitely no relaxing for me, while Orion, although busy meeting cousins and new friends, seems to be doing well. Everybody loves him here and my only concern is that he gets overwhelmed by all the attention that he is getting. I can't always take him with me when I visit the construction site (our new apartment) but my Mother says that he does well without me the whole day.

He still has the "holding the poop" problem and that's just the very frustrating part of all. He also gets very "sookey" at times and just wants to hug and cling to me and cries for no reason at all. Guess it's all attention-seeking but I wonder why he feels that he is being ignored still. On my part, I really am so drained from all the travelling and planning that I have to do before we move in to the new place.

Orion has regaled his audiences here with his nursery rhymes, dances, playing the piano and just his friendliness. He can already sing his ABC's and has finally mastered making a "peace" sign (which actually means 2 years old also) with his fingers. He has been given so many new toys including 2 new sets of choo-choo trains that are now all over the place. I have not "unearthed" the rest of the toys and books that we have left behind here the last time.

Papa Aaron will be arriving today for a short visit as well as to attend an aviation symposium so we are all getting ready for his coming. So I have to cut this short now as we have to pack stuff again for our travel to the airport.

See you again soon.

From the Philippines,

Kelly and Orion Flynn
