My Kid the Destroyer

I know that I have mentioned many times before that my only daughter is a very playful err…mischievous kid. I don’t how and when she started to have this weird fascination with windows. She loves climbing it, washing it (yeah, she splashes it with water), okay it’s more of splashing than washing, making silly faces by pressing her face on it and lastly she loves destroying the blinds too. I don’t why no matter how many times we tell her not to touch the blinds, she still ends up wrecking our venetian blinds made of hard plastic. I guess we have tro resort to buying wood blinds then for a sturdier and more durable window blinds. And if she still gets around to ruining it, maybe we’ll just have drapes instead.

Low Maintenance

It’s true that diamonds are girl’s best friend but if you can’t afford it just like I do, sapphire rings will suffice. Until such time that hubby can get me a real diamond, hehehe! Anyway, I don’t really mind if he doesn’t coz I’m not a jewelry type of girl. I’d be happier if he’ll get me a pair of shoes or a bag perhaps. What can I say, I’m just low maintenance.

Like A Kid

This coming July it’s going to be my beloved Father’s 68th birthday. This early we are already conceptualizing how we are going to surprise him on his special day. We are thinking of a children’s party theme with balloons, clowns and the works. There will be a big cake with 68 candles around it so he’ll have 68 wishes as well. There will be party hats and ice cream for everyone of course. I need to find a party planner stat. And to think of some chocolate ideas for dad’s birthday since he’s a chocolate lover err… make that monster. That even if we forbid him to stop eating it coz we are afraid that he might contract Diabetes, he still manages to sneak some in his room. Oh, I can’t wait to finally tart planning for his party. This is one party that we would like him to really have fun and just enjoy like he used to when he was still a kid.

Like A Little Boy Again

On Christmas Eve when everybody started greeting each other a very Merry Christmas, I pulled hubby to our room so I would be the first one to give him a gift. I was quite nervous because I didn’t know what would his reaction be since I got torn between titanium watches and a new cell phone. Good thing that I stuck with the former because I don’t think that I’ll ever see him as happy as he was if I got him another gadget which he already has a lot. His smile was priceless. He looked like a little boy who just got a shiny red toy car for a present.

Lesson Learned the Hard Way

I’m on the brink of losing my mind on how to make my eyelash grow back already! I don’t know what else to use or what else to try. I shouldn’t have listened to my friend when she said that I should cut it so when it grows back it will be thicker and longer now it looks like I don’t even have any and mind you I have spent hundreds already just to make like the way it used to but to no avail. I have learned my lesson the hard way and sad to say that it cost me my lashes. Next time, I won’t just listen to anyone before doing anything. I will research and ask around first. Tsk, tsk, tsk!

Exact Same

On the morning of the eve of Christmas, I remember that I was still doing last minute Xmas shopping for the boys. Every single year, I always find it so hard to think of gifts for them that’s why they are always the ones on the last on the list. Compared to women that you could give almost anything and they will all find it cute, men on the other hand dislike cute items coz that would make them gay if they do. So to make things easy, I got all of them exact same gifts, Martor USA utility knives. And what do you know they were really happy to receive one.

While We Work

Our Nanny has been with us for more than 3 years already. She first came here when my daughter was just barely a month old. She used to be very good in taking care of our girl but lately it seems that she tends to forget a lot of things or just being plain negligent of my child’s needs. The culprit is Television. She got so addicted to it that she can’t take off her eyes of it. My husband already suggested to install security cameras around the house. So we will find out if she’s really doing her job as a Nanny or not while we are away and working in the office. I know that hubby did not mean any harm, he’s just worried for the safety of our only child. I’m still thinking about it but I might give in soon since there were a number of instances of her negligence already.

I bet some parents out there are having trouble in finding ways how to keep their children protected from the cold weather. It’s not enough to let them wear thicker clothing; they need something that would somehow keep their hands warm too.

Since baseball is quite a forceful sport, you’ve got to have the right equipment to keep your kids safe and away from harm. As parents it’s important to make sure that your kids are properly geared before every game. I’m sure you don’t want any mishaps to happen to any of your children while the game is going on. You should really make them feel secure and confident for them to truly enjoy the game.

It’s actually the same thing in picking baseball equipments for them specifically Batting Gloves because there will be a lot of hand movements in this sport.

Amazing Kid

My niece Hazel expresses an intention that she wants to be an equestrian someday. She’s very fascinated with horses. She even loves stories where horses have the starring roles. In fact her most favorite of all is the timeless tale of Black Beauty. She even memorizes the english horse tack terminologies. That’s how serious she is and mind you she’s just 7 years old.

Extraordinary Christmas

Exactly one month and two days from now, it’s going to be the birthday of the most important person in the world, My Jesus, Our Lord. It has been years since the Christmas Spirit has left me or it was the other way around. Ever since my grandmother died, it was hard for me to celebrate Christmas like we used to. This year, I hope to revive and regain that once lost Christmas Spirit by looking for it in unexpected places, in the most unpredictable people, in unforeseen events. This year I’d make a pass on one of the nikon cameras that I have been wanting to have and spend my time looking for my extraordinary Christmas.
