requital: make them happy!

7.16.2009

I am what I am and where I am today because of the generosity of some kind souls around me. And I am so thankful for that.

These people did not ask me for anything in return. And I think the best thing that I can do for them as requital to all the kindness that they’ve done to me is to be in their side in times of their needs as well as remembering them during special occasions like birthday, Valentines day, Christmas season, etc.

During my free time I also tried my best to see them personally. Sometimes I bring K.A. with me so they will be able to play with her too and of course to be able for K.A. to know and familiarized the faces of all the people that are close to my heart.

Simple things indeed but it means a lot for them. Showing them that they are always remembered makes them happy.

my dream as a mom

7.14.2009

To dream anything that you want to dream.
That’s the beauty of the human mind.
To do anything that you want to do.
That is the strength of the human will.
To trust yourself to test your limits.
That is the courage to succeed.
~Bernard Edmonds~

You already know how proud I am of my pretty little angel-K.A. As she grows older everyday, she never fails to amaze me. She keeps me inspired to strive harder.

And as a mom, I really want to give her everything she needs and everything she wants. I do not want her to experience any of those “not-so-good” experiences that hubby and I went through.

I want to nurture her with so much love and care. I want her to grow up as a lady with sharp mind, a God-fearing soul and a loving heart. I really want her to have all the best things that world has to offer-the health, the wealth, the beauty, the success and happiness all throughout her life.

And that’s my dream as a mom. To be the best mother in the eyes of my little angel-K.A.

KA’s top five kapamilya TV shows

7.09.2009

KA got her addiction on TV from her father. They can actually stay watching TV all day long. Unlike me I prefer music than TV. Mas may time kasi ako magtrabaho kapag sounds lang.

There are children/cartoon shows and other TV shows that she loves to watch from the Kapamilya Network, Kapuso Network and from ABC 5. I still have to ask my sister for the correct title of those TV shows from GMA & ABC because I am not so familiar. Sila kasi madalas magkasama eh. For now, here are her top 5 kapamilya TV shows:

Mr Bean. Before taking her midmorning nap she’ll gonna watch first Mr Bean. You cannot force her to go to sleep without watching it. Ewan ko, pero tuwang-tuwa syang panoorin si Mr. Bean. After the show she will be the one to turn off the TV and she will sleep. Automatic na yan!

Wowowee. Upon waking up from her midmorning nap she will ask her tita to turn on the TV and she will watch Wowowee. She knows how to dance the giling-giling. Favorite nya rin si Willie but she calls him Wowowee not Willie. Everytime KA hears Willie’s song she will say Wowowee. One day, she saw one of Willie’s billboards along Commonwealth Avenue and she said, “Mama, wowowee oh”.

May Bukas Pa. Of course, we will not go to sleep until the program is over. She knows that after the news her favorite Santino will follow. Hindi mo sya maloloko. She knows the time. She even knows if the program is over or it is only a commercial break.

Singing Bee. During weekends syempre hindi rin sya nawawalan ng favorite shows. She knows and calls Cesar Montano as singing bee. Lol. She loves music that’s why she loves singing bee. She used to enjoy watching myx before but since we still don’t have a cable connection in our new home eh nagtitiyaga na muna sya sa singing bee and she likes it naman.

Going Bulilit. KA as a silly little girl loves this show. Kakarelate sya eh. She loves to laugh together with the kids of going bulilit.

There are times that I thought of letting KA enter the showbiz. What you think guys? Ambisyosa ko noh? Hehehe. Uhmmm… time will tell and we will give KA the chance to decide on what she wants to be. She is a smart girl anyway.

shopping made easy!

September is our foundation month and in line with that we have series of activities that mandated everyone to join. We have run and bike for peace and many other activities that will be held during that celebration. And since September is a busy month for us at work, we need to buy shoes that will suit the occasion. A good biking shoes and running shoes for all of us who will join the main event are required.

Good thing is shopping nowadays really made easier. You can just seat down, browse an online shop and look for your desired product. It’s hassle free. No more waiting in the line to pay at the cashier, no more traffic and no more sweat at all.

So every time, you think of buying clothes or shoes for a special occasion try to consider shopping them online. Check if they are available on any online store and if they are cheaper and more convenient than to buy them in the shopping malls.

happy father's day!

Quick updates!

6.19.2009

I’ve been to sick ville again. It all started last weekend. While my sister went home, I took charge of the household choir and the baby sitting.

I got so tired; my body does not seem to cooperate. I had sore throat, and suddenly got a fever on Sunday evening and I chilled. I decided to rest on Monday hoping that the fever will go past. But I chilled again on Monday evening. That made my hubby to panic because I haven’t experienced such thing before. He decided then that we better see a doctor on Tuesday morning just to make sure that swine flu doesn’t hit me. Good thing that the doctor said it was an ordinary flu and I just have to take enough rest. Take some vitamins and plenty of water.

But problem doesn’t ends there. Because as I started feeling better, my daughter started to get fever as well. Her body temperature reached 39.3 degree Celsius. The highest fever she ever had. That made us panicked again. We had to be awake for the whole night to look after her, gave her medicines and wiped her with lukewarm water.

Times like this make me feel sad and wish na sana sa akin nalang lahat ng sakit na nararamdaman ng anak ko. Dobleng hirap kasi kapag sya ang maysakit.

I’m feeling much better now. I still have cough but no more fever. But my daughter still has a fever pero medyo konti nalang. Sana soon gumaling na rin sya.

For the meantime, please bear with me and allow me to fully recover first from this situation. I know I owe you a blog visit. I’ll catch up as soon as I can.

Happy weekend everyone!
