Dating Lovebirds

Monthsary celebration is becoming not that special to us as compared to those days before we got married. I don’t know, maybe because we were both preoccupied with our everyday responsibilities making us forget those special moments. It was like a mortal sin before if one of us will fail to remember our Monthsary during our younger years (college sweethearts). Who can relate to this? Lol. Our Wedding Anniversary though is an exception! We always find time to celebrate our wedding anniversaries. Who wouldn’t want to celebrate one of the happiest event of being married? It doesn’t need to be... Read More

Just Listen

A bit exasperated a few weeks ago and decided to release some of my unwanted anger by talking to a friend. As they said, one of the best ways to vent out frustrations is to talk it out with someone you trust with. But sometimes people whom you trust interpret it negatively. She jumped into advising me in directing my concern to the person involved which seemed she was unwilling to console me. Instead of listening first, as a human instinct she automatically provided feedback on what needs to be done to face my annoyance and judged me based on my story. Life doesn’t... Read More

Daisy Our Beautiful Flower

A devastating news hit our family when one of my sister’s co-teacher turned into her closest friend and eventually became like a family member to us met a vehicular accident yesterday. We’ve been praying for her recovery, however, her sustained injuries were too serious making her body to finally give up. It’s one of the most hurtful events I never and will never be ready to face. I’m scared to even discuss about death and imagining being left by the people I love. When I heard it from sister, I tried my best to control my lacrimal glands from getting... Read More

The Importance Of Play

It’s one of a difficult task for us working Mom’s in making sure our time between our career and our roles as a mother are both balanced. We can’t afford to sacrifice our motherly role to our kids just to satisfy the demands of our jobs and vice versa. If one of our obligations is compromised, it’s going to give us lots of stress to fulfill the gaps of our responsibilities. Perks of being a Super Momma! During our rest days, Mon and I will always find a bonding moment with our Akyn. Having a child doesn’t only mean providing him with his basic needs and... Read More

Gift Giving Ideas for Our Fathers

This post is sponsored by Gifts Less Ordinary but the content and opinion expressed here are my own. It’s one of the most challenging task I consider in looking for a perfect present for my husband, for my father or any male friends of mine. Unlike for ladies, where I can completely relate to those stuff which women would want to receive as a gift. There was one time, when it took me several hours searching for the best gift for one of my male friends during our work related gift giving activity. It was a waste of both my time... Read More

I Am A Mother

“You’ve received the greatest gift of being a woman, and that is to become a mother.” I got this compliment from a nurse on duty just after a few hours I gave birth to my only son. It was a blessing which I could never have imagined the unique happiness motherhood can give me. This day marks another year for us mothers to celebrate our special day of giving life to another beautiful soul. It’s an honor to be called a Mommy. Why? Simply because being a Mom requires a lot of self-sacrifice to the point of sometimes exhausting our own... Read More

Ibabaw Mountain Resort

Once in a while it’s best to take a break from the usual routine of being part of the working class. Who wouldn’t want to switch off their work mode button? It has been planned weeks ago about our beach/swimming pool outing to unwind a bit and escape the busy city life for a day. Our first choice was a resort in the northern part of Cebu. Unfortunately, it was fully booked for our chosen date. Must be a blessing in disguise on why weren’t accommodated. The location would take at least 2-3 hours of travel and may take more...

A Glance To His World

What a night to remember we had yesteday! My husband’s employer invited the family members of their employees for the office official blessing. I was hesitant to visit due to some time constraints and also, I am not really fond of attending to social gatherings not unless I know someone close to me who shall be present on the event as well. I had persuaded Mon to attend our pool party with my colleagues last Thursday. It was just right for me to reciprocate to his request in engaging for their office gatherings. How was the experience? If there’s someone who... Read More

Let Me Post It

When Social Media became a hit as one of the channels to socialize with people way back when I was in College, I got so hooked into it. I had made a lot of friends online without really knowing them personally. I had the chance in connecting to people regardless of the distance. It was like everything was possible! I can post whatever I like, share photos and drop comments if I wanted too. Amazing, right? As I advance my age, I realized some of the negative effects of getting so much engrossed with social media. My private life became... Read More
