a few months ago my brother's family, me and my younger brother went out,We go to this place ISDAAN is a place where you can eat at the same time u can view take pictures on some statue there.Its so how amazing the place is where the kids really enjoy took a picture of statue to like superman, snow white , incredible hulk and diff cartoon character too. To name some the statue there is some political figures like Pres. Obama and his wife, our very own Pres. Cory Aquino, and Pres. Joseph Estrada., some where monks some are animals such a very beautiful place that my nephews enjoyed...I was of course so happy to seeing so much happiness and excitement in my nephews eyes...they shouted with so much joy, they also ride on a boat, and have some face painting. I was laughing so hard abt the youngest nephew he said hmmm aunt when will be the time we go out like this again? i said soon baby sure we will coming back..he smiles and said yehey!.. You know aunt i will never get tired promise i will be good in school if we will be back here again...i can see so much joy in their eyes i may say you really cant buy the true happiness of a kid in just simple things like this...

A child has no care in the world. All he knows is to play, laugh and enjoy. Indeed, simple thing can make them smile and can surely make their day. we adults should take a mental picture of a happy child when we are feeling down and as if the whole worked has turned its back on us. I child do not worry about anything. They do not think of problems. We, the adults, experience a lot of things in our everyday life. We often complain because of stress or because we are just too tired or not happy. We should think of that happy child and stop. We should be able to appreciate life and see the beauty of living.

I know that place, I'm just an hour's drive from there. But I prefer the smaller and older resto, the Palaisdaan just a few meters from it. The food there is much better, and we prefer the relaxing ambience there. For kids though that new place is heaven.
Anyway, on to the discussion, when my kid siblings surprise me with mind boggling statements like that, I find it so refreshing and i always have this silly smile on my face. Their innocence is a breath of fresh air. Sometimes I would deliberately try to engage them in some grown ups discussion by asking them questions just so I can hear what they think. Even us adults can indeed learn from kids' POVs.

Its such a nice feeling that you made your nephew happy. And I'm sure the smile that you got from him is very priceless. Its true when they say life when your a kid is so simple, so fun and so innocent. I wish life is always like that, everything's simple.

Yes, the truest little people of the world. Cute. and very educational place too. of course the short boat trip could really give joys and happiness. It was a different experience and learning that's the reason they were very happy. It was far from Mc Do and KFC adventures. Yes simple things make us all happy. Feeling kid also LOL.

That is one of the most treasuring moments of every human, being with their family and having a good time together.Of course,happy bonding would be incomplete without the presence of kids and babies. They are the apple of every members' eyes. Kids or babies are very sweet and giving their want is a pleasure with us. I think that happy experience of your nephew will take him as his motivation to study harder.

Kids are easy to please and their happiness and excitement is to shallow that's why I love kids. My nieces and nephews are so happy even when we go to the park or have some walks. Or even when I cook some snacks for them. Kids are very appreciative even to the tiniest thing you do for them. My 5 year old niece is excited every time I ask her to go with me for a walk. She's happy every time I pony her hair. Kids happiness is real. They bring happiness to the family.
