Went to church yesterday with creaking joints & body malaise. It’s actually a no brainer. We require the kids to go to church with us every sunday. It’s one thing that’s non-negotiable so we parents had to set a good example even though the bed was calling out to us.. “commmeee baccck.. lieeee dowwwnnn.. relaaaaxxxx..” Jesus trumps bed! 😛

Ate decided that she also wants a mother-daughter act for her debut. I, of course, was flattered. 😉 Yay, I have a part! m/ I was really starting to feel sorry for myself & a little left out for a while there hehe.

Have you watched STEPMOM starring Susan Sarandon & Julia Roberts? Of course you have! I mean WHO HASN’T?? It’s the best mother-daughter movie yet! <3

There’s a scene where Susan Sarandon was singing “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough“. Oh-em-gee! Ate & I SOBBED like crazy at this part, so when it was time to pick OUR song, this was the first one that came to mind. Best mother-daughter theme song evah!

There was a HUGE problem though. We weren’t SINGERS!! As in, we can carry a tune (some, anyway), but singing LIVE in front of an audience was a different story. Ate suggested lip synching first, but we nixed the idea right away. Personal was still the best, even though we were both out of tune hehe (reality check!). So when a good friend FAYE volunteered her hubby to help us out, Ate & I were over the moon with joy! m/

Gino owns 8th Note Studios. So, after lunch, we went off to get whatever help we can! 😛
