Finding Green

Having grown up surrounded by green spaces - a farm and the suburbs - The Shark and I want to make sure Toto doesn't spend the first five years of her life thinking metro Manila is the norm.  When we are not traveling, we scout out green spaces on the weekend.  Purchasing a village sticker for our car gives us access to the gated suburban communities that often have nice parks.  We frequent the Forbes Park playground because it is huge, clean, and has baby-sized swings and slides.  This morning the leaves were falling and it looked a little like fall.  Especially since I was drinking a holiday latte - it's already Christmas at Starbucks!
We also keep lots of plants in the house including this new window herb garden.  Toto was surprisingly patient and interested in the seed planting and we check out the sprouts everyday for progress.  Hopefully she doesn't start eating random plants after we demonstrate that you can eat what you grow...
