Fitness at Home

I make no secret of the fact that I still go to the gym even now that I am pregnat. I have written several times in the past that I think my first pregnancy was a glorious one because of exercise. Fortunately, the gym is just on the second floor of our apartment so it is [...]

Happy Father’s Day

After a sleepless night last night, Hubby and I are now in our respective computers while our Little Dynamo is sleeping. This is not the Father’s Day that I have planned for my husband. But Little Dynamo chose this weekend to let his father do his “fatherly” responsibilities to him. He was extra clingy to [...]

Witty Boy

I’m just so amazed at how time flies with regards to my Little Dynamo. We just used to carry him, hug him, tickle him, feed him. Now, he has his own wants and demands for them. And this is what’s most amazing! We only used to teach him how to talk. Now, words just come [...]

Joke Season in the Philippines

I abhor Joseph Ejercito Estrada! and that includes all the people who are still behind him to this day… the gullible movie fans, the selfish lawyers, the self-serving politicians, the remorseless mistresses, the arrogant bastards from every woman he had lustful nights with, the legitimate children who are exact copy-cats of their pig of a [...]

Fans for the Summer Heat

The heat is on! It’s summer time and it is time to bring out the fans. I think the most convenient and stylish fans are ceiling fans. There are so many styles and designs you could choose from and they hardly bother you when you move around. Ample various styles abound so you are not limited when [...]

Appreciating “Concerted Cultivation” – thanks to Gladwell’s ‘Outliers’

I used to criticize, and laugh at, at the way some Korean mommies schedule their children’s activities, study time, all-kinds of hagwon time… My few collection of books is pitiful compared to a typical Korean’s home library. I had this first taste of shock when I once visited the house of my son’s friend (they [...]

Friday Frustrations: 20, 30, 50

Thanks to Maria’s Conversations with Moms, here’s my own concern for this week: What’s with numbers 20, 30 and 50 that is so hard for children to remember? My son learned to read his alphabets at 28 months. He quickly learned reading his numbers 1-10 after that. It was a breeze for him to learn [...]

“I love that singing”

Family and friends know I can’t carry a tune. Even a Happy Birthday song is a real struggle for me. That’s how bad it is. But when it comes to my boy, I could sing my heart out. He doesn’t know the difference between good and bad singing, at least that’s what I thought. There’s [...]

Dr. Seuss Beginner Books

I remember reading Dr. Seuss when I was in my elementary years and I guess, I was fascinated by the drawings as the images never left my mind. Now that I have my own Little Dynamo, I was reconnected to Dr. Seuss. I have a few Dr. Seuss books but I thought it would be [...]

Webhosting concerns

I first had my own blog site around three years ago. I still have it to this day but it’s a personal site chronicling the events of my little family. I love that site as it reveals my passion about motherhood. Aside from my own family and motherhood concerns, I wanted to write about anything [...]
