Handog namin ngayong araw na ito, Para sa aming nag-gagandahang mga ina, Ang pasasalamat at pagmamahal, Na sana’y inyong madama. 💙 Salamat po’t hindi nyo insip ang sarili, Hinayaan nyong mapagod at mahirapan, Dahil sa loob ng siyam na buwan, Kami’y nakitira sa inyong sinapupunan. 💙 Hindi kayo noon makatulog ng mabuti. Hindi masyado makakainContinue reading “A mother’s day poem”

DIY Mom
One of the best decisions we made for our home is putting our old floorboards on the wall. I like to keep things simple and minimal, so even though I don’t decorate the whole house, decorating the wall brings some attention to any celebration and to the celebrant. I like to reuse and repurpose. HavingContinue reading “DIY Mom”
His Eye is on the Sparrow
And He watches over me and my family….. We were recently at our friends’ place, which they call The Lord’s Camp. Our girls were with their two friends. They went into the pool together while I was watching them in the front porch. I got distracted when our friends (the owners) arrived though, and IContinue reading “His Eye is on the Sparrow”
What Do You Love About Mom?
The girls gave me cards for mother’s day, and in the evening, during dinner, King asked the girls what they love about me. ❤️ So what do they love about me? Danae said that I was patient with them even though they give me gray hair. Hahaha. They always say I’m patient but I reallyContinue reading “What Do You Love About Mom?”
Radical Change
Motherhood. A beautiful gift from the Lord. But a gift that takes work and many times, lots and lots of tears. I remember the time, well one of my big moments of great frustration (believe me, there have been quite a few), I was crying out to God because I was at my wit’s end.Continue reading “Radical Change”
Mirror, mirror….
In our home, King and I always remind our daughters that the tongue has the power of life and death. God knows we struggle with this too, but it’s easier to point it out when we hear our kids saying negative words. Story of our parenting lives right? Practice what you preach. Preach what youContinue reading “Mirror, mirror….”
I Don’t Want You to Die, Mommy….
I don’t know if it’s because she is the youngest or because it’s just really her personality, but Gianna is majorly clingy to me. She really loves me and even though we are constantly together, she still tells me that she misses me and wants me….. to do everything with her, even though there areContinue reading “I Don’t Want You to Die, Mommy….”
To Moms!
To all the hardworking moms out there…. Exhausted? Frustrated? Feel unappreciated? Confused? Torn? Misunderstood? Overwhelmed? Stressed out? Feel like nothing is going right? I have two words for you….. INDOOR PLUMBING. Yeah. Let that sink in for a while. Even though you can’t just magically get rid of allContinue reading “To Moms!”
Mother and Daughter
I think it was last week when Danae stayed with me in the supermarket after dinner, while King brought the two younger girls home. I appreciated the company, especially because she’s not anymore the toddler that she was, who would get her own cart and stash sanitary napkins and other things in it. I alsoContinue reading “Mother and Daughter”
It’s a good thing!
I am a stay-at-home mom. Even though my older girls go to school everyday, I am with them at breakfast and after school. It’s not often that I go out, though I do drive them to their after-school and weekend activities, because the littlest one is with me. I have to plan my moves. I’mContinue reading “It’s a good thing!”
