My Rocking Cradle

I am a stay-at-home mom. My son is now a 28-month old Little Dynamo. He loves to be with people. He loves to be with children. And that observation doesn’t just come from me:-). A few weeks ago, I was determined to put my son in a daycare. I knew he was ready for it. [...]

Today is not about man vs. woman… neither is today the day of the feminists… Today (make it everyday) is ABOUT and FOR every woman who is comfortable and confident with who she is and what she is. Have a great day!

Just when it was beginning to drizzle…   ME: Look, anak. It’s raining. We can’t go out. Little Dynamo: Mommy, no. Not raining. ME: Look, the people have umbrellas. So, you see, we can’t go out today.

Last Saturday was another “ME” time. My boys (husband and son) allowed me to spend the day with friends at Nami Island. Cathy had invited me the week before for this Foreigner’s Free Festival at the island. The festival is from February 28 – March 8, 2009. I am just so glad I accepted as [...]

My husband and I feel that it’s the right time to have another Little Dynamo. So, I am eagerly looking forward to another ten months of glorious pregnancy:-). I am quite lucky to have been spared of the stretch marks during my first pregnancy but I wouldn’t want to take anything for granted. This early, I [...]

 I saw this picture from Inquirer.net today. Majestic and grand. The wraparound cloud with seven birds was a dramatic addition which the surgeon/photographer chanced upon. Lucky! What makes this volcano stand out from the rest is its almost perfect cone. I remember a school performance when I was in grade school about the myth of [...]

I found an interesting site for women who love to stay sexy, slim and on the go. Skinny and the City offers tips on how to stay slim and fit without the usual obsession of counting the calories from the food you eat. More than the food, the website has a free newsletter where you can [...]
