SWEETS FOR MY SWEET

Ever since I could remember, Haligilet had developed a very strong bond with sweets. Theirs was a love affair that blossomed ever before he turned a year old.

As I recall, his fascination, no, obsession, with all things sugary began even before his first tooth came out. Be it be cereals, cookies, chocolates, jelly beans, gummies, yada yada yada, walang pinalamapas si Haligilet.

Case in point...
To further complicate things, he also had an affinity with things non-edible...Both a parent's and a dentist's nightmare, indeed.

Backed by a family history of diabetes, I resolved that I would steer my loved ones clear of known agents of the killer disease. Obviously the resolution was not firm enough. My son slept with the enemy, and how!

I was really puzzled how Haligilet developed such affinity with his glucose fiends este, friends. After all, I have tried to keep the enemy out of our abode for the longest time. But with my weight and waistline, what credibility did I have, right? Hehehe.

Alas, I found the root cause. The affinity had been passed from one generation to the next...
Kung ano ang puno, siya rin ang bunga.
