Studying Together

My little Baba waiting for me.

How do you manage your time? One of my co-workers asked me that a few days ago. I smiled and I said, I am still trying to be good at it. I can't help but feel guilty sometimes because I don't see Frankie as often as I want to be. When he sees me getting reading early in the morning, he always tell me, "mama work?" and I answer him yes or sometimes "mama school". He gets excited that he always get his shoes and tells me that he wants to come. I wish I could take him then it would be a lot of fun. I am just glad that he is home and safe with his Tatay. They go out occasionally and if I have a spare time I spend it with Frankie. From as simple as drawing together or watching his favorite shows together. In fact during my midterm week, I studied in his room and we studied together. I did mine while he did his ABC's. Now every time he sees me he asks if we can go study. He likes the books that he have. I always motivate myself that these are all for him. I even have pictures of him up on the top of the other computer where I write my essays, so that when I feel tired and feeling like I want to give up, I just look up and there he is smiling at me. It will get better; I just need to manage my time well, and I think I am doing good at it.
