Why Am I Blogging?
**Just a heads up, this is a long, very personal story of why I am blogging. ** Have you ever felt like doing something but can’t? Either you don’t have the inspiration, the tools, or someone’s discouraging you. Have you ever felt like writing something but you just ignore it or you are just procrastinating? Those times that you’re just talking to yourself, ideas coming in, and thoughts pouring, it’s overwhelming! You promised to write everything but when you find the time and you’re ready to write everything, you don’t know where to start. All of those thoughts that you so carefully organized in your mind are gone! And, you…

The Joy I Felt When I Found Out I’m Pregnant
It was a busy week in my world of freelancing and I am having a normal change of attitude when I’m expecting my period. I have a 25-28-day cycle but I freaked out when I missed Day 1 last March 2016. The thought of being pregnant came to mind. We were married for 10 months then and was not really trying to conceive, be pregnant. I told my husband that I missed my period. As we wait for the right time to check, we had this mixed emotion of fear, excitement, and what-ifs letting the days pass by. I took the test after 7 days. March 26, 2016 (we slept…

I am a tired mom, but happy!
I am a tired mom, but happy! Nakakapagod mag-alaga lalo pa at dalawa lang tayo madalas sa bahay, palaging puyat, hindi pumipirmi na malinis ang bahay, hindi makapagtrabaho si mom kasi ang clingy mo – gusto mo palagi ako kalaro at katabi matulog, hindi tayo makagala na tayo lang kasi hindi kita kaya buhatin mag-isa pag napagod ka na maglakad (laki at likot mo po kasi), ang dami mo na din ‘watdat mom?’, di ko na masagot minsan kasi paulit ulit e. Pero makita ko lang yung smile mo na yan at happy ka, aba anak, nawawala na pagod ni mom. Hindi literal na nawala ha, syempre tired mom pa…

Clean Up Song Lyrics by Cocomelon
Clean Up Song Lyrics by CoCoMelon (formerly “ABCkidTV”) seems to be my favorite song nowadays! I think all moms can relate especially if you have a toddler and if your house is super messy every single day! So, the lyrics of this song deserve a space in my blog. CHORUSClean up, clean upWe all had fun todayNow it’s time to clean up andPut everything away! Over here and over thereUp and down and everywhereAll the toys and games we playedAnd one big giant mess we made Over here and over thereUp and down and everywhereThere’s cars and trucks and boats and trainsAnd buses and a model plane Over here and…

Toddler Story
On a scale of 1-10, gaano kakulit ang toddler ninyo? 😭😭 Nagluto lang ako saglit, sabi ko behave muna sya. Pagsilip ko nakahilera na yung diapers sa sofa. 😭😭 Tapos sabi ko keep na niya yung diapers kasi madudumihan and hindi sya toy, alis ulit ako to check yung niluluto ko pagbalik ko, ginawa naman nya costume! 😂😂😂 Ending, natawa na lang ako. Kesa ma-stress pa, I took a picture na lang.hehe Nagligpit din naman sya after, 3rd pic, storage box is lagayan niya talaga ng toys siya lang nakaisip na dun ipatas yung diapers. In fairness, natuwa naman ako sa idea niya.haha Sometimes we feel so overwhelmed sa gawaing…
