HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
It's been a quite a journey for me guys. As I recall the moments, and all the mommy posts i made in this blog, I could only imagine the joys, sorrows, moments of doubt and terrible stress and doses of happiness motherhood has brought me.
True. Motherhood changed my whole life, what with the two misfits but still I know we will make it through.
I never thought being a mom is the greatest thing that could happen to me. I have never been my best when I became one.
To all moms out there and my mom readers, thanks for the love.
Cheers to us! Please enjoy this is our day!
Hustling once more.
Hugs and Kisses!
From me Adi and Ami

Our Baby Girl's Baptism
Thursday, April 28
LORD, We bring this miracle to you
so fresh from HEAVEN
and ask that you would hear our PRAYERS
and share our JOY for this day
Pour your HOLY SPIRIT
into this tiny heart
and wrap your loving arms around
this SPECIAL CHILD.
May your GRACE freely shine
into this precious LIFE.
and in all the days ahead,
let this heart rejoice in loving
as your own FORGIVEN CHILD.
As we were BAPTIZED,
so we profess our BELIEF.
As we profess our belief,
so also we offer PRAISE.
As then BAPTISM has been given us
by our SAVIOR,
in the name of the FATHER,
and of the SON,
and of the HOLY GHOST
So, in accordance with our Baptism,
We make the Confession of the CREED,
and our DOXOLOGY
in Accordance with our LORD.

Natural Living: Surviving Summer the Natural Way
Sunday, April 17
I know how you feel mommies. Really we are going through one of the most hottest days ever. Literally, it is like boiling water hot these days from where I live. Just Last March 12, I collapsed when I tried to balance myself from getting tripped off.
It was also very humid that day that when Adi and I went from buying some grocery items for our little sari sari store, i fell down as in like plunking down. My whole body crashed on the ground like a sack of rice. It went like that mom jumped off from her seat and papa to help me. I didn't know what happened. The last thing on my mind was oh God I am going to fall down now and I cant stop it.
The aftermath: Wounds all over. Thanks to the Aloe Vera my wounds are now completely healed. |
1. Plant. and water them. Useful water can be waste water from your laundry. They serve as supplement to plants like Banana and Kangkong which are very water dependent. Aside that theses plants provide food, they provide oxygen. Start planting a garden will save you time from going to the market and money.
2. Wash your dishes outside. It is simple, used water from washing your dishes and kitchen wares can be used for sprinkling on your front yard or back yard too. Get the land hydrated. To keep water from circulating.
3. Look ridiculous and wear sunglasses while doing the laundry. PROTECT your eyes from the harmful rays of the sun or do the laundry while its not too sunny. I do my laundry in the afternoon, just when the sunshine is at its low point at about 4 or 5 pm.
That's about it. Don't forget to stay hydrated and when it's sunny better take shade, lucky us there are trees and cool fresh air from the yard.
But still, we take precautions. The hard part of the days are when we can't go out to buy food, so when the afternoon strikes we hoard and buy at the nearby market. It's also good to eat healthy and maintain it.
Start wearing loose pieces of clothes are a great help too.
Climate change is real guys. Stay educated and ready against the summer heat.
Conserve Energy and WATER!

3 Things: The "then" Working Nanay that was Me
Sunday, March 27
Happy Easter All! It's been ridiculously 3 months since I left my day job. And boy oh boy I miss the things I loved at work.
my work station. i miss the pics on my shelf too |
I've said this over and over that it is been my decision to leave my job and be a stay-at-home mom or maybe in a couple of months be a work-at-home mom, but one can't deny the perks of working in an office aside from the comfy chairs and cool aircon (hehe)
I really love to dress up and put on makeup. So there, I miss my (1.) freaking lipsticks! and maybe my cubicle but really they are the lipsticks in there girl. I know!(I don't know where they are now since this photo was taken like over a year ago). If you are a working mom like me who spends most time in front of a PC, it's my way of bringing life to my pale look. so hashtag lipstick, hashtag LOTD (lipstick of the day) was my thing way back then. lol! I guess, it was my weapon of confidence that I only stopped putting it on when I had my second baby.
i love this scarves to death. i got them at a thrift store here in Cebu |
I suddenly miss wearing scarves, of course I can't wear (2.) scarves at home. It's a tropical country and most of the time it's 36 to 39 degrees Celsius from where I live. So, slash the scarves. I remember they were my sort of armor against the cold Conference Rooms, Training Rooms or whatever-rooms include the whatever-corporate situations you find me in. They are there. but not most of the time. Aside that they are comfort, they are a statement. I never knew dressing up was my thing before. I just was simply influenced but I miss wearing them on.
the coffee by the boss. some perks from working |
There are a lot of things to miss especially the trainings from which I can only get from my very awesome day job. I have the best boss and job which I really love I just don't miss these things though: office politics, the toxic co-workers, tight deadlines and missed accuracy or call-outs.
There is always a bad in the good and good in the bad. We just have to learn to live the hell out of it to just SURVIVE. There are a lot of realizations yes. I guess I'll have another chance to do that in my next 3-things-post.
