Most often than not, we forget the simplest rule of washing our hands from time to time during the day. Busy as we are with a lot of tasks, we should not fail to keep ourselves aware of what these could do to us. Just days ago Tabby was chatting me about his left eye being all puffy probably caused by allergic reaction of some sort. I told him to observe in the next hours or probably like two to three days before deciding to consult a doctor about it. …

These pictures were of November 19th when our Grandpa Toto and Grandma Pie came to visit family and relatives here in Las Vegas. We all enjoyed a very sumptuous dinner at Buffet @ Asia which happens to be just around the block. And look what we’ve got going. Cousin madness! Emily and Eugene are great kids! See how much fun we had! We actually made ourselves burn all those calories we took in huh?

I haven’t blogged yet about this last photo, but I’m adding it up here. It’s still …

Now I know love isn’t painless. But it’s worth the risk; its worth the fight.
We both know it is.

I just wish we can be together on this special day. Life is indeed worth being with you. Even more than that. And I’m better with someone - I’m better with you. I’m a whole better person with you.
Here’s a song for you, Sweetest. You know I can’t sing! But I do dedicate this one for you.

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I …

Two years gone by,
How time has flown,
We can’t believe
how EA’s grown!
She’s such a joy
and much fun too,
Oh my! Ann, your baby’s
turning TWO!

It’s Erin Alijah’s 2nd birthday today! Why don’t you drop her a line or two, or perhaps the full Happy Birthday song plus a sweet hug too!

It seems like it was just yesterday that she had her first birthday. From Tito Tabby, Tita Danica, and Yzzy - we wish you a very happy birthday! Have a blast at your party later!

Daddy arrived home finding a very noisy toddler today! Look how she makes gibberish sounds. Apuchi Puchi Puch! I don’t know if I got that right but that’s how it sounded like. I miss you little icay!

A rule of thumb: Less is more. The less a toy does, the more opportunity a child has to create and learn from it. Simple toys are easier for children to use, require less supervision and last longer.

1. SAFETY FIRST
Toys should match a child’s developmental level and age and should not contain unsafe, toxic or flammable materials, sharp corners or small, detachable parts. They should also be clean.

2. DURABILITY
To survive a child’s repeated handling, a toy must be made of sturdy, reliable materials.

3. EASY TO USE
A child must be able …

Our first few days left all by ourselves were more of happiness that haven’t sank in yet. Overwhelming. We were also enthusiastic enough to walk to church which was two blocks from our place. Too bad the chapel was closed. That is what it is here, the have schedules on which hours they will have their doors open to the Catholic community to attend mass. Instead of heading straight home, we managed to take pictures of ourselves and ofcourse - the mass schedule so next time we head off, we …

At times when you think there’s nothing else you can do, a tiny light magically presents itself and turns things for the better.

So that was all I need. A very deep heart to heart talk with my God’s Gift. And I tell myself, why can I be stupid not to find the answer when it is (or he is) right in front of me - through the webcam that is. I know I have been on my very unlikely self lately. It seldom comes out you know. And having that …

I bought a Hoops and Yoyo Birthday card two weeks before her birthday. I mailed it the next day hoping it will arrive around the Christmas season if not on the exact 18th. I was surprised to hear that it just arrived two days ago! Hahaha. Nevertheless, I wasn’t that disappointed. Why? Because my little girl adored it. Look at her! Smiling so much hearing all those:
“Happy Birthday!!!!”
“You missed it!!!”
“I missed what???!!”
“Hahaha! You missed the brithday!”
“Oh no, no, no, no, no!”

Its  card that says loud crazy greetings when you open …

I have been learning how to drive lately. I passed my automated driving test exam, and now I’m up to the road test. After passing that, it will just be a matter of time ’til I get my own car and be on the road. But as a woman, it can be frustrating sometimes to have such vehicle problems. But wait, Los Angeles Auto Repair, as I’ve researched on is actually a good find. You can let your hand do the talking! Search through their wide geographies and estimates you …

Surprise! Here you go Sweetest. My desperate attempt to collect and collate my baby pictures with Yzzy’s baby pictures. You need to come up with your version too - once you get out of the very busy schedule you have that is. Oh well, maybe when I go home we could make yours then. I hope this justifies somehow that Yzzy looks like me! I tell you, its Tabby’s eyes that make her look so not-like-me. She is, and always will be a prettier and better version of Mommy.
Be …

Has someone ever told you God answers you?
For a lot of days now I have been giving myself heartaches. Honestly, I am so longing home. I have gone over Yzzy’s pictures for the most number of times than anyone could ever have. And it pains me to just go all through them knowing she’s growing up too fast without me. If you are reading this, and you think this is just nothing - all blabber. Please, spare me from another heartache. You’ll eventually feel how I feel if you ever …

Poor kid, doesn’t know how her mom misses her so badly behind those smiles. I’m just glad she listened to me when I told her she needs to be strong for me. And that she needs to smile a lot for me not to worry about her. And that she’ll be a good girl so Daddy won’t have any problems with her while I’m away. I can just imagine how strong my daughter is. Isn’t she? She’s just a kid but for me as a mom she is doing wonders. …

…How can the place you so long for be such a nightmare? I have been getting a lot of comments and chats asking me of how I am here. Its just too hard to explain. To shell of yet no one can ever feel what it feels like. I just want to find zen and peace right now. Total silence.
