Another blessing
Maybe it was just coincidence but I'd like to believe otherwise. Two days after Reb volunteered her time for the cancer-stricken kids at PGH, she was given this blessing. I got word that she had been included in the final edited version of the noodles commercial that was shot two weeks ago.
What makes this TVC special is that she is the youngest (again) at 3 1/2 since most of the kids with her were 4 going 5 and 6 years old. It was also one without a script where the kids to be included in the final edited version will be chosen based on their answers to questions thrown at them during the shoot. It was quite a feat since most of the questions were really meant for the older kids. Imagine Reb being asked, "anong magandang asal ang itinuro ng mommy mo sa iyo?" Yaiks. She was able to get back in the game when they gave her lines to say...and because they found her cute and charming while eating noodles.Somebody asked me what my gutfeel is in terms of her chances of getting in. I dared not say I know she'll be included because I know she wasn't as effective during the question and answer portion due to the nature of the questions. I was just hoping she'll be chosen since it was her dream way back when she just turned two to be a commercial model of that brand of noodle (sorry, can't tell yet since it hasn't aired). Hahaha...wish granted.
I would like to think that wishes granted are just good deeds coming back to you though maybe not always tenfold. Yet a wish granted will always be a blessing...and a shower of blessing is just too much to just receive...it must be shared or passed on...and hopefully that circle of giving and receiving is something Reb will truly understand, appreciate and more importantly put into action when she becomes older and wiser.
