Incoming school year is a few weeks away and like in the previous two years when enrollment is still being done online, my daughters needed to submit their requirements so they can get listed.

It’s just sad that after what seems to be the best Christmas since Covid 19 happened, here we go again, it seems that we are all back to zero. But despite this scary number, I noticed that the number of people dying was minimal compared to before. So thankful for those who dedicate their time studying this virus and the...

Sleep is very important but apparently our kids, most of them, just love to go to bed later than they ought to be. That’s why they love sleepovers, late night movie watching and overnight trips. I notice all these with my kids. But though getting into bed late can be permitted once in a while, it’s not healthy for growing up kids to have insufficient sleep.
