My Rocking Cradle

I had been wallowing in my own (bad) health the past week that I had been here in the Philippines that I hardly took notice of the plight of other Filipinos who fell prey to the nasty temper of Bagyo Ondoy. Little Dynamo and I arrived in Manila Monday last week. We were picked up at the [...]

Running shoes are a necessity in my life! But much as it is embarassing to admit, I wouldn’t know the difference among all these various sports shoes. So, to be on the safe side a pair of basic running shoes is good enough for me. I use my running shoes in the gym, in my [...]

I remember my high school English composition class. We didn’t have computers back then. Who has?:-) While I was in the house the whole week last week, I finally took notice of this: It’s an old typewriter, an antique one, that has been with the family for… I actually don’t know. LOL. Unfortunately, I don’t know [...]

What’s with perfumes and colognes that make us choosy and crave for those which appeals to our senses? With so many fragrances to choose from, it is good to know that we have Fragrances Buying Guides to help us determine which is best for us. But of course, that does not mean that we have [...]

Around two weeks before Little Dynamo’s scheduled surgery, he woke up in the middle of the night and said, “Mommy, I want to go to Disneyland“.

Even then, they get all the available help that they can on the subject. The internet has introduced a new medium for Online Math Tutoring and it is available twenty-four hours a [...]

My mother’s side of the family is deeply religious. It is not a quality I have inherited but I do hold on to my faith. Anyway, my aunt never fails to remind me that things happen in HIS time, not our time. The surgery of my son and the activities I planned after the surgery [...]

South Koreans can go to the US without a visa for 90 days because of South Korea’s inclusion in the US Visa Waiver Program. Neat. My friends once suggested that hubby and I avail of the permanent resident visa as soon as we reach our 5-year stay here in Seoul. We are not keen on [...]

At last, we can move on! I have written about recurring fever and VUR in my previous posts. But I haven’t really made any connection with these posts with our Little Dynamo. I guess this post will be the most personal post that I can write here. Now that the surgery is over and the [...]
