I love kids I love kids. I have many nieces and nephews. I'm always inspire whenever I see them. I play with them, sometimes tutoring them in their school lessons. Whenever I have problems or when I am lonely, they are those who make me smile. When I'm not with them for some period of time, I miss them so much. I really love to be with them. I can go through out my life as a spinster just as long as I'm with them. That's how they mean to me. That's me who will be happy just having them.

How do you say when you didn't do something you should do? Would you use present perfect to express it? example 'I have left the door opened' Mother: Did you close the door? Son : I have left the door opened. I thought Jenny was there. Sorry. I have left the door opened, so the door is not closed. In the Philippines, we have expression such as 'Naiwan kong bukas ang pinto'. It means that I left the door open unintentionally. We have expressions that starts with 'Na-' and it means two things: the action is in the past & unintentional. Could I use present perfect to express it? We have already equivalent expression of past tense. 'Sinara ko ang pinto' means 'I closed the door.' All verb with '_in_' such as kinuha, sinulat, sinira, etc are all past tense. Thanks.

In 'My feelings then,' does 'then' mean 'after' or 'that time'? Could I use 'then' as a means of 'that time in the past' and not 'after'?
