  • The Joy of being a Mother

    The Joy of being a Mother

    I was 31 years old when I first became a mother. I never thought it would be a gigantic responsibility. I never thought that my life would change big time. When I became a mom, without any lessons, training or proper education on handling children, I slowly learned how to take care of my children.…

  • Spending my Birthday!

    Spending my Birthday!

    Two birthdays of not spending with my husband was quite different.. This is all because of the pandemic. I was really not hoping for us to be together on my birthday.

    Sunday Plug Off

    “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy” – Exodus 20:8 I am a Christian and I have known that Sabbath day (whichever that day is, but for Christians it is every Sunday) needs to be surrendered to the Lord. So I am much aware of it however, for the past few weeks I was…

  • Why am I Different?

    Why am I Different?

    This is a question that popped my mind when my cousins were here in our house last week. I have two close cousins whom I spent almost my entire childhood.

    5 Essential Things to Bring Outside for Kids

    I am more than excited to let my children explore the world. The moment my youngest daughter went outside to be with us in a grocery store, I felt like she was deprived of going out. Though it was not really my fault but the circumstances, I still felt what she missed. Now that everything’s…

  • My Eldest Daughter’s Birthday

    My Eldest Daughter’s Birthday

    My husband and I always celebrate birthdays and anniversaries. Even in our own little ways, we felt the need to celebrate those because it is a blessing to reach such milestone in our lives. A year full of blessings and love from God is something that need to be celebrated. Last Friday, we celebrated my…

  • Children’s Vaccination in the Philippines

    Children’s Vaccination in the Philippines

    Sometime last week, I checked my facebook for any updates about the vaccination of children from 5 to 11 years old. Some of the towns here are already starting the program. I saw that here in our town, our government is asking us (parents) to register our children online for vaccination. I immediately signed in…

    Making Our Own Sofa Cover

    I am really into Arts and Crafts.. This is something that I wanted to indulge but I didn’t have any chance before because I was working. Since I have a little bit of chance now to be exploring on my interests, I grabbed the opportunity. I have been wanting to make our own sofa cover…
