Sissy


I am so glad that yesterday my sister paid us a visit.. She said that she didn't miss me at all but she missed the kiddo.. Okay..


We went to a salon to pamper ourselves.. We had hair treatment..(hair spa, massage, foot spa, manicure and pedicure!) Wheeee! I just feel so relaxed!

Reminiscing our childhood days.. we've been through a lot of arguments, fights.. I thought that our parents love her more.. and guess what??! that's what she thought too.. But as we grow up, we learn to appreciate each other.. We became bestfriends.. We share each other's happiness and we are there for each other during the low points of our lives..

We are so opposite.. Physically, she has white skin and i am tan.. Our features are not very close.. Simply put, we don't have anything in common physically... People who don't that we are sisters won't even recognize that we really are sisters.. and a lot of times, we met friends and officemates in the mall, resto.. and they would ask.. Who's with you? and we would say, "She's my sissy.. " and people would just say.. "Really?! You don't look like her".. Errr! But lemme tell you, we are both pretty! hahahahha
I am loud and straight forward, Sissy is reserve.
I am impatient, Sissy is so patient.
I am very proactive and demanding most of the time, Sissy is shy.
I tend to be impulsive, Sissy is decisive..
I am sometimes careless and clumsy, Sissy is keen and careful..
I am very opinionated, Sissy prefers to listen.
In terms of attitude..
Probably, we have tons of differences and list would just go on and on and on... But I'd rather count the common things that we have..

> same parents.. hhahha!
> we both love each other
> we love our family..
> we are both hardworking
> we are both dreamers ..
> we want each other to be happy..
> we support each other's endeavors
> we are ready to fight for each other..
> we love GOD
and a lot more..

I love my Sissy very much.. God created us to be different and that is because.. she would fill in what's lacking in me and I'd do the same..

I would never be complete without her..

Blogger friends, How's your relationship with your sissy and or bro??

God's Discipline

Among other responsibilities of parents to their children, the first and most important is teaching and helping 'em grow in the word and discipline of God..

Unless our children grow in God's teaching and discipline, they will never fear doing the wrong things.. They will not learn to value relationship.. They will not learn to share.. They will not value life.. Fear of God will bring 'em to a good future.. a future that is away from vices, illegal drugs and immorality.

"Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord."

Monthly Swap



simple pleasures organized a monthly swap this February.. She thought of "Accessories" as her theme for this month.. Hmmm.. I must admit, am so addicted to accessories.. watch, earrings, belts, hair bows, anything that would add glamour, elegance and beauty to women! I just love 'em!!!

So there, after visiting her blog (a worth reading blog!) and knowin' that she's initiating a swap, I joined! It took me some time to look for stuff to send my swap mate.. Now, I finally have it and will be on its way to Australia this morning.. Before I drop it to the post office, i'll take a picture of it and post it.. (probably later..) I just hope my swap mate will like it, because its really a personal pick!!!

I just wanna share how excited I am to share stuff I have to people who would also appreciate it! wheeeee!!!


Of course, this is also one great way to make bloggers across the globe closer.. watcha think?

Great Idea!
Thanks Kay for initiating the swap!!! (=:

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

See comment for details...

My Valentine..

I call him my Own..
He is the man behind my every success..
He keeps me moving..
He is my shopping buddy..
I tend to be unreasonable at times and talk nonsense, yet he still listens..
He prepares great meal! He knows the kitchen more than I do!
He appreciates my entire being..
I can be myself... I need not to pretend to be somebody am not because he accepted me and love me as who I am and not who other people wanted me to be..
He makes me feel beautiful everyday, despite of bad hair days!
He understands and knows what's on my mind without me telling him.. hmmm...
He makes me smile after a long and very tiring day.
When I need a good laugh, he just have to fart! hahahhaha!
He turns my bad days to good ones by simply, rubbing my back and kissing my foreheard..
I need not to say what I want because he already knows it..
He turns ordinary days to special days because of LiL surprises he brings..
He makes me see the other side of things.. and leads me to a great realization..

Love is having him..
Love is living with him.. spending my life with him..
Love is holding his hands..
Love is bein' with the Man of my Life.. The father of my most precious possesion..
My Hero.. My Big Daddy!!!

Its always good to celebrate Valentine's Day with the Man to whom I said "I Do.."
I Love you My Valentine!!!

Love Thy Children

"Do you always love me mommy?"

Not all children can and would ask this question.. But for sure all children want to have assurance that their parents would love them not only when they do good but also during those times they commit mistakes..

If our love is just manifested and based on our children's achievements, our children won't be true to themselves and to us.. This can have an effect on his personality, character and self-esteem..
As parents, we have to show our children that we love 'em not only when they achieve somethin', when they receive honor/recognition in school and when they get high grades.. When our children commit mistakes, fail, need improvement, get high with drugs, get pregnant at a very young age.. this is the perfect time to make 'em feel we love 'em..
This is loving our children unconditionally..
God, our father loves us unconditionally.. Pass it on to our children.. ------
I've decided to regularly post an entry about parenting.. I am tagging this as Parents 101.. Hope my entries would help us moms, dads to be great parents..
Bein' a mom and/or a dad is indeed the most challenging and rewarding career in this whole wide world! Agree??!

Super MOMS!

Last December 11, 2006 My LiL' Kiddo's nanny left the house to get married.. It really surprised me.. She never told us her plans and we were caught offguard..

So there.. got no nanny for over a month now and still in search for a great person to take care of our LiL Kiddo while mom is away.. Hope she'll enter our door very very soon and stay long..

Though, we got no nanny.. I am so blessed to have a Mom and MIL who are very supportive and loving..

Let us talk about my mom.. She travels from heavy Mondays - Lazy Fridays even before the sun is up (around 5am) from her house to our house.. and goes home at 4pm and sometimes 6pm.. Imagine that?! She never complains.. She even says "You are even doin' me a favor.." I get to see my beloved grandson everyday.." My mom, does all the work for me.. She takes care of LiL kiddo.. She feeds him.. She cleans our room.. She cooks.. She even does the laundry.. She just does everything! I really can't thank her enough.. (now tears are fallin' from my eyes.. ) I am just so lucky and blessed to have a mom like her! How can she love us this much?? How can she not get tired?? How will I survive without her???


LiL kiddo with Mama Nids
Now, my MIL.. I am one of the fortunate ladies who have a great MIL.. I know some folks there do have a LiL somethin' against their MIL or vice versa.. Great thing, I am blessed with a great MIL.. She works as a school teacher.. and after work, once my mom goes home, she takes the next shift taking care of the LiL kiddo.. Like my mom, she never complains, and we feel that she loves the Kiddo very much!

LiL Kiddo with Mama Baby


Oh wow! I have two great mothers!
How will I make it without these two super moms???

My FamiLiA

My family...

They are the reason why I live a very happy life!

They are my joy!
They are the reason why I am so blessed!

They keep me moving.. They are the reason why I work hard..

They are behind my every success..
They lift me up whenever I fall and stumble..
They make me stronger everyday..

They make my days brighter!
They turn my bad days to good ones!

They make me cry because of happiness..
They wipe off the sadness that this life brings..
They make me sing happy songs!
They make me dance like a dance guru! hahahhah!

They make our LiL house a castle! and I am the queen!
They kick out the stress and pressure brought about by my damn career! wahehhe!

They make me feel I am the prettiest woman in the world! Thanks Mr. Universe! (my Big Daddy!)
They rock! They rock my world! Great job LiL Kiddo!
They are my number 1 fan!

My family.. makes me complete...
