Savoring the moment with your babies is what mothers would always wanted.  Parenting takes a different form, activities such as playing, giving them a warm bath, being with them, story telling, giving them all the love or even getting them a new hair cut.

Here’s another day of bonding time for the family.

So, she finally had her wish.  She wanted to be like her favorite Dora, although we told her many times, that she doesn’t look like Dora because of her chinky eyes, she still had the final say.  Kids can really convinced you sometime.

Clean Healthy Diet

I can still remember the day when I was crying in front of our dining table telling my hubby that I would never see the day that I can be fat because i have been living my life being skinny and oh so thin.  And then comes the time, i gave birth with our first daughter and things changes, i guess my appetite too because i can see my self eating extra rice and having mid night snacks.

My friends would say not to eat chocolates because it can cause miscarriage but i just could not help them.  Now, i have been eaten my words on not getting fat, each day, i wish i have made it differently but we could not turn back the time and now, i have been busy thinking of a good way on how i can get my old self back.   I’m on a diet, that’s the word, you will usually hear from me, i have been trying my best to try the detox cleanse diet to get rid of this extra fat in my body.

Eating moderately, skipping my usual mid night snacks, taking a half cup of rice and sometimes eating only oatmeal in the afternoon makes some changes.  And yes, the result is not that clear but it pays and i believe you would also love to hear about the clean program and improves not just your body figure but also your overall health as well.

Proper diet and exercise as they say can make a big difference but the problem is, i rarely had the chance to exercise so i guess proper diet is the only solution i had.

Greatness comes from humble beginnings

title athlete of the year

When I first held her in my arms, I thought I was dreaming. I have waited for her for five years after having two miscarriages and finally the day came when I have learned the good news that I was pregnant, instead of  tears of happiness, i cried hard on the thoughts of losing my baby again.  But having her in the darkest hour of my life after  a  week of the death of my father seems a perfect gift for a grieving heart.

Being a mother is something a women should be proud of. Many says that you can choose the man you wanted to marry but you cannot choose your children or your mother if the case may be. It’s a contract for a lifetime and no one can break that contract even you.  I don’t know if it comes in random but the fact is, it’s a gift from God that I am very thankful.  She’s an angel from above that gave us so much joy and changed our life forever.

A beauty of Life

At a very young age, she possesses charm, having been able to be included in some magazines and newspapers, it was a such a delightful sight for a mother.

And as time goes by, our angel turns into an adorable princess who filled our life with happiness and joy. She now wants to do things on her own.  She is very talkative and always asking different questions and her laugh echoes on the whole house.

swimming, cooking, posing for the camera and playing music are just one of her favorites

We never dream of  fame for her or achievements throughout the globe.  We wanted to instill to her the true value of education.  We teach her that to be a great person someday, you need a good education and education starts at home not just through reading books but with the love, affection and guidance.

As a mom, I know that Peachy is an exceptional child.  Her gifted traits are showing at such early age and I am sure that she can go along way to become an achiever of her talents and her abilities could be harness by good education.

We can see her enthusiasm, that’s why we encourage her to do the things she wanted to do and assure her that we will be there on every step of the way.

We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love. – Mother Theresa

And our Peachy possesses that great love, just like every kid who loves her kid brother, our daughter is not an exception but what delighted me more is the thought on how she cared for her brother.  Giving me assurance that everything will be okay for her and for his brother because she will be there to take care of him. 

great love- A sister love

Her future is still unknown to us but just like i always believe, greatness comes from small beginning, she might be a young girl today but who knows what she will become in the future, a lawyer just like her daddy wants, or an engineer just like what mommy wants, a doctor just what her grand-mother aspires her to be or perhaps an ambassador of goodwill just like what my father dreams of me. We don’t know what the future will bring but only one thing is for sure.  Whatever, she chooses and whatever path she will walk, we will always be there every step of the way, giving her our blanket of love and affection and words of wisdom.

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon ‘em. – William Shakespeare

Another characteristics she had is she’s not afraid to try things, she would not cry over some problems, she will eventually make it good and find ways to have a solution on her own.  Unlike me who resorts on crying, as early as now, she had a strong will to be able to bit the odds she had and when she saw mommy cries, she will pat my back and whisper to me, “okay lang yan, mommy” and you will forget your heart aches and just smile.

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. — Ralph Waldo Emerson

Although, I wish she can just stay forever to be my loving baby so I can just cuddle her and just read to her and make her giggle, I know she will soon grow up and she will think for herself and do the things she desires. So for now, I will just cherish her toddler days and give her the best love a mother could give, so she will have a good memory to live by and she will achieve greatness so she can look back and be proud of her humble beginning in a place we called HOME.

 She's our Princess, She's our Prosperity!

whatever she do, wherever she goes, she will always be our little princess and we know her heart will always stay with us, because we are her home.

The road to greatness begins at home. – Chinese Proverb
