Today is a special day for catholics all over the world. I was excited because this is the first time that we were able to do Visita Iglesia as a family. We visited 14 churches yesterday and we had a great time. Not only are we able to be awed by the beauty of these churches but we were also able to reflect on the true essence of the Holy Week as a family. As my entry for this week's Mommy Moments, I've chosen a photo taken from one of the churches yesterday. This is one of my favorite amongst the churches (and one of the two guys favorite as well). And it goes very well for today's theme which is Rainbow colors. This is the altar of Saint Joseph the Worker Church in San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan. It was the first church among our itinerary. We loved the look of the rainbow colored stained glass on the altar and the huge area outside the church. It was also very solemn and quiet inside that you can only hear the chirping of the birds. The kid was even asking if we could perhaps go to this church some other time and chances are we will be.
As for today, we just spent the day with each other cuddling and exchanging stories. 'Twas a very rare occassion indeed that the three of us spends time like this so I really enjoyed my two days off for this week. Something that I would not exchange even for 260% additional compensation for working on these days.
Happy Moments Mommies!
