Mommy Irene

     Meg graduated last March 17. Yes I don't have a preschooler anymore. I feel old. (Arte mode) Anyway, the school gave the reminders about their Graduation three days before the event. 3 days ha. It was a Thursday and syempre I had work. The only time I can buy the things needed is Friday. Actually, I had this instinct they would require the kids to wear a Sunday dress but I decided not to buy muna. Buti na lang I didn't because she needs to wear a Sunday dress in pastel color and a closed shoes. I was thinking Sunday dress lang, the same thing they wore during their Moppets in Motion.

     I spent the whole morning before work and my whole evening after work looking for a dress that is not so formal but is perfect for a Graduation ceremony. I was able to find dresses, but mostly white and some naman look very casual lang plus ang mamahal! Not that I wanted a super bonggang dress, but I prefer something like the pictures below.

      Pretty diba? Then I remembered she had a flower girl dress which I can let the modista (seamstress) to alter. Ang tanong, kaya pa ba with the time? Here's the flower girl dress.

     The plan is to cut the dress just a few inches below the knee and add on red ribbons or beads since she will be wearing black shoes with red ribbon. And dahh-rannn!...

O diba you can really save a lot of money when you think of how to cut down your expenses. Hindi biro ang magpa-aral ha. In the sense na you will not just consider the tuition but also the everyday expenses plus the projects, school field trips, etc. You should learn how to prioritize without sacrificing something else. Like the dress, we can be creative and think of ideas. We can be stylish and use our imagination (sabi nga ni Barney) hehe...
