And it rained

Almost a week before the Semana Santa, PAGASA had already warned Filipinos that they will be having a rainy holy week ahead. As always, we just shrugged off any news about the rain and took the weather one day at a time. As Holy Monday came in, the heat was becoming unbearable that [...]

Ang Binawing Regalo

It’s friday once again.  I am usually excited about weekends, excited because I will be on my restdays the next two days.  However, today is a different friday.  Today reminds me of a different thing.
It was a week since I came to know that I was pregnant with what  could have been our second baby.  [...]

The long wait is over

A few days from now, I will be celebrating my 33rd year here on Earth.  As most of us, I have my birthday wishes as well.  You see, I lost my mom, a few months back.  On her wake, I have been trying to look ahead to this day.  This is going to be my [...]

Praying for an Angel

“Angel of God,
my guardian dear,
To whom God’s love
commits me here,
Ever this day,
be at my side,
To light and guard,
Rule and guide.
Amen.”
Have you been touched by an angel?  I have been, just recently.  I was cleaning our house last weekend and I was about to dispose old newspapers which are starting to file up on our living [...]

My Little Chef

Jian had always been vocal about what he wants to be when he grows up. He wants to become a chef. I know it was very unlikely to hear this kind of dreams from kids. Infact, I have not heard of any other kids who said he wants to cook when he grows up. But, [...]

A day in the Wild

Jian has always been tugging on us to go to the parks.  Unlike kids of his age, he seems to enjoy the beauty (and heat!) of nature instead of the comfort being offered by the malls. Lucky for us, because these parks does not actually ask for a lot for entrance fees.  It also is a [...]

Praying for Motherhood..the second time around

Roughly four years go when we decided to have another kid.  I stopped the pill and waited to be pregnant in the months that followed.  It was in the same year that we found out that my left ovary was not so healthy.   I was one of the many women who suffered from Polycystic Ovarian [...]

Sino ang kamukha ni Jian?

MyHeritage: Look-alike Meter – Family finder – Family tree templates
Kung sino ang talagang kamukha ni Jian has always been a topic of debate sa pamilya namin. Kahit sa mga kaibigan namin, this has always been a topic! Finally, me sumagot sa mga tanong na ito. The look-alike-meter decided, walang daya yan…All I did was provide [...]

Victory at last!

After all the exhaustion that we had from organizing our family reunion last Valentines Day, we are now thinking of having a BIG break. It is actually more of a victory party for all of us. the reunion was such a blast. Everyone who attended had a night to remember, well those who were not [...]

A day in the City of Manila

It has been Hubby’s yearly promise to went to the Feast of the Black Nazarene. Since we dated (oh well, yes that was fourteen years ago!), I have been tagged on this yearly occassion. There was only one time when we were not able to attend the feast;that was last year because I happen [...]
