When Lola comes over to visit

Joking around with Lola

My Mom counting money to give my children while the boys eagerly await

Fair and equal

Hosted a dinner last week with only the women in our family

My Mom, sister, and 2 sisters-in-law

Was nice, bonding time

and the women appreciated it to have some time off

In the meanwhile

My kids went out with their 15-year-old cousin

to High Street til 11 p.m.!

It was an enjoyable season

What a wonderful gift we really got

Jesus was born

and the tradidtions and love live on

Enjoy your weekend!

My biggest party yet!

before the troops came

Wii party with some yayas watching over

2 weeks ago, I hosted the biggest party yet for my youngest's birthday

All his classmates came, save for 3, don't worry, there're only 16 of them

but boy, was I on my toes!

They had absolutely lots of fun

and it was amazing how seeing them happy makes all the stress worthwhile

My son had such a great time

And so did his friends

And the icing on the cake, for the designer in me

I was amazed how boys their age

appreciated the house and its design

Wow, kids nowadays are really sophisticated

This is why we moved to a bigger place

So my kids can invite friends

and enjoy the space

Really heartwarming seeing them happy in our home

Can't wait for the next party!

Happy birthday, love!

Can't believe how much my baby has grown
All his pajamas have gotten shorter
I asked him, is it you or they shrunk in the washing machine?

Happy birthday to the one who fills my days with gentleness and warmth
Who kisses me while am asleep
Like some kind of Prince Charming
Who calls me when I'm out just to say where are you, I miss you
Who worries when I even trip
And made me like ice cream because of the concoctions he's made

The one without fail calls me beautiful everyday
And inspires me to always be my best
Happy birthday to the one I adore so much
Who makes my days complete
And leaves me with something to smile about everyday

To that one who makes me proud I was blessed to be his Mom

Happy birthday, my love

Be the first: Mind Museum

posing in front of I-Fairy

I found this cool, the laser harp

It doesn't have strings but because of the laser , it creates sound

My boys givng their feedback on the different exhibits

Pre-exhibit of the soon to open Mind Museum

Today was an exciting day

It was the first ever trial run of the soon to open world class Mind Museum
Where else but in Global City

Got the invite from Manny Blas

Head of Mind Museum & Commercial Operations for BGC

Of course, my kids jumped at the chance!

Though they have school I requested to pull them out

My stand was

A lot of effective learning is done outside the classroom

Can you remember every single lesson from your teacher back then?

But I remember the trips, the travels, the bivouacs

The experiential opportunities that really stay with you

Though my elsdest thinks he's seen it all from other science museums overseas

My youngest was quite thrilled to give out his opinion

I am just elated that Manila has finally come to its senses to open

Cool, educational places such as this

Mind Museum

Coming Dec 2011

Be there!

I have a teenager!

Happy, happy birthday to the one who first called me Mama.
Showed me how much love I am capable of

Can't believe how much you've grown
And how time just flies like the blink of an eye

And all the changes I've seen and observed
How we're now going through that challenging phase of teenhood
But with you as my first
I know the journey will be magnificent.

Happy birthday, my dearest!
