If there’s something that we all agree and enjoy within our family, it’s music. As they say, “music is the universal language of man” and I am glad that despite the generation gap, we still enjoy each others’ types of music. But how can you enjoy good music without good music player, speakers and headphones? Talking about headphones, my daughters and I share these a lot, not only because the kids use their ipads a lot this vacation, but because I also use them when I work. A good quality headphone is a must...
As parents, my husband and I always feel that it’s our moral obligation to teach our kids to be caring to Mother Earth in our own little ways. We teach them to throw away their little paper thrashes and candy wrappers in the right places, by filtering the left over food from our plates and not let them go down the drain, and to recycle as much as they can. But there are still more ways to teach little kids of what they can do to be more caring to nature and fortunately, Kidzania Manila came up with a summer program to help parents...
On April 22, 2016, it’s going to be our Mother Earth’s birthday, do you know that? According to Smithsonian.com, the earth is about 4.6 billion years old already and it’s turning a year older this coming Wednesday. You may think that our Mother Earth is quite old but actually, it’s not the age we should be concerned about but the major problem that Earth is currently facing. Global warming. We’ve already heard about this crisis for many years already but as years pass by, we are also more and more experiencing...
This summer 2016, we’ve tried a new experience with the whole extended family, a day trip in a private pool in Calamba, Laguna. It was our first time to have this kind of escapade and we all wished we stayed a little bit further. I found Casa Primera by searching for private pools in Laguna in Facebook. Their page was easy to search but we also searched for other options. Finally, after checking the photos of different Facebook pages, I decided to contact Casa Primera for their rates. What I liked initially in Casa Primera is that...
Have you ever felt sick at work but you still need to finish your job task? Or if you are at home, you couldn’t go out and bring your child with you because of personal reasons? You need to go to the doctor and you’ll realize that it will take you long before you will arrive to the clinic because of the traffic. After your consultation, you need to go to the pharmacy. That’s a whole lot of stress and anxiety in one day. There’s one app/website service which tries to give solutions to these problems. MyPocketDoctor. MyPocketDoctor...
Getting enough rest as a mom is one of the most difficult things to accomplish, given all the tasks you need to do in a day. There are the household chores, devoting time to spend with your children, cleaning the house and cooking afterwards, and even working alongside for those work-at-home mommies. In the United States, it has been reported that the number of stay-at-home working moms has risen by 800% since 1860, as featured on a Live Science post. Thus, how can moms get the rest they deserve?

Do you feel the same way sometimes, having that guilty feeling when your kids are at home during vacation and you can’t just bring them out everyday? I do. I am a work at home mom and there’s no way I can leave my job. They are in vacation but I am not. If I don’t work, I won’t get paid. After praying to God to give me patience and wisdom (believe, I need to do this when I feel impatient), I realized that there’s no reason to be guilty. We are doing a great job providing for our families, and for WAHMs like...
We’ve been to Tagaytay twice and we’ve checked in at the same hotel during those trips. The first was when we attended Mommy Bloggers Philippines Halloween Party at Sky Ranch and recently when my daughter had her graduation retreat in one of the retreat centers in Tagaytay. Our first stay in Destination Hotel wasn’t that good. It was a stormy day and we were tired when we checked in after a day of organizing and hosting the Halloween Party. We checked in a P3,300 a night room in Destination Hotel. It was a 30. sq.m. Superior...
