He hides a TREE in a SEED.
He hides a KING in a SHEPERD BOY.
He hides a SAVIOR in a BABY.
Aren't you excited to see what HE's hiding in YOU?
Be prepared for the BIG blessing that God will provide YOU
in the coming days....just believe."
-a reminder for us that we all have our worth no matter how small or big it is. We are all God's children and each one of us have unique talents, skills, or abilities that are of BIG help to others.

post birthday party

day after her birthday, may natira pang cake and she's so happy to see it, kaya pinagkanta uli namin siya ng happy birthday song and here's how happy she is

hahaha, buti may cake pa
blow your candle
lipat ng pwesto, di ma-blow sa una eh
oopps, tumikim pa
but the sad part is she cried so hard after this kasi she's not allowed to eat cake pa (as advised by the doctor)

Winning Friends - Why Do We Need Them?

got this from maricel (momhood moments)

  
We need friends for many reasons,
 all throughout the season.
 We need friends to comfort us when we are sad, 
and to have fun with us when we are glad.
 We need friends to give us good advice,
 We need someone we can count on, 
and treat us nice. 
We need friends to remember us one we have

raigna turns 2

raigna turns 2 yesterday. we planned to celebrate it together with our families and close friends. though few days before she had been suffering from diarrhea due to some bacterial infections, thanks God looks like she's getting well (hope so). it's kinda sad nga lang to see her payatot in her birthday. 

unlike last year on her first birthday, the weather is fine. last year kasi it was raining so hard and we thought we couldn't celebrate the way we planned it buti na lang the rain stopped in the afternoon. my brother's friend Osang made a pink gown for raigna, (he/she makes gowns kasi) so yun na lang pinasuot ko, sayang naman kasi
hubby requested for pancit canton and maja blanca instead of the usual spaghetti, and i opted for carbonara (my favorite)
thanks to manang mila and ate cherry who cooked these yummy food
just to make the mood more festive i bought these 5 balloons and made this wall decor
and of course, birthdays wouldn't be complete without kek(as raigna would say), thanks to ate nhyza, ate krista, and kuya carlo for the cakes.
she really loves the kek, can't take her eyes off them
my dashing lil girl on her 2nd birthday

speaking of shoes... again

looks like usong usapan ang shoes ngayon, i wasn't able to post pix dun sa shoes tag ko kaya bawi ako  today, but it would be raigna's fave shoes and slippers . raigna used to have a lot of shoes mostly courtesy of my sister in law, which she brought along when she came home from japan. i said used to kasi di na nya kasya ngayon, ang bilis humaba ng paa nya. now that she appreciates them di na nya kasya, and it's so funny when she would try hard to wear them         
to date 2 pairs na lang ang kasya nya from the pix above. kaya i bought her these
                                                          green ballet shoes
 but she still loves these so much kahit na labas na half of her feet
trying to find this kind of slippers para naman di sya mukhang kawawa pag suot nya, hehehe.
   
 ako naman i'm more into flipflops, i love them, here are some of my collections:  
                        
                                                              havaianas                       flojos
  
                                                         
                                                                                      ipanema

Husband Program Glitch

grabbed this from melisse, (found this so cute and funny, hehehe)

INSTALLING A HUSBAND Dear Tech Support , Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0 . In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as: · Romance 9.5 and · Personal Attention 6.5, and then installed undesirable programs such as : · NBA 5.0, · NFL 3.0 and · Golf Clubs 4.1 . Also Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2. 6 simply crashes the system. · Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail. What can I do? Signed, Desperate. ================================================= DEAR DESPERATE , First, keep in mind, · Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while · Husband 1.0 is an operating system. Please enter command: ithoughtyoulovedme.html and try to download Tears 6.2 and do not forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update. · If that application works as designed , Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5. However, remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5 , Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1 . · Please note that Beer 6. 1 is a very bad program that will download the Farting and Snoring Loudly Beta. Whatever you do, DO NOT under any circumstances install Mother-In-Law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources.) In addition, please do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 -program These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0 . In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend · Cooking 3.0 and · Hot Lingerie 7.7. Good Luck! Tech Support

blog, blogger friends

it's been quite a while since my last post. kakamis din ang pagba blog. with blogging i was able to release my sentiments and express what i really feel without the fear of being criticized simply because THIS IS MY PAGE  right?, hehehe.!!! and what's more endearing about it is that i was able to make friends online, napaka techy na talaga di ba., we don't really know about one another but we were able to establish a mutual understanding thru our posts, we were able to relate with each other's experiences and stories of life and i really appreciate those advices, comments and messages. i was able to learn new things, new ideas, techniques especially about being a mother. sometimes i find relief when i read other blogs and we share the same feelings, akala ko kasi minsan ako lang ang ganon ang pakiramdam o ginagawa.
 i never really thought i could be in this field kasi i'm a frustrated writer, i can't even compose a good essay. when i was still in school i really hate it when  exams are in essay form, i would rather have it identification coz i'm very good in memorization but for God's sake wag naman essay. i remembered almost failing my history subject  kasi ang exam laging essay and i can only answer for at least 3 sentences and then the end na. straight to the point kasi akong mag answer kaya 2-3 sentences tapos na. also during my high shcool days naman, i joined our shcool paper staff and for that whole school year wala akong napublish na article simply because i haven't done one...i can't coz i don't know how, hehehe. pampadagdag lang ng extra curricular kaya sumali ako, hehehe, bad me. 
that's why i'm somehow happy now coz i can express into writing what i wanna say, tnx to blogging tlaga and to all my blogger friends, u may never know it but you really inspire me all.

my mom's shoe size - 8 1/2  

my size - 8 

my sister's size - 8

maluwang lang ng konti yung kay mama and wider kasi yung feet nya kaya di ko rin masuot yung mga shoes nya and di kmi pareho ng taste, hehe, i'm more on parang pa hiphop yung dating(that's how she describes my shoes). as to my sis naman kasya ko mga shoes nya and sandals but di bagay sa feet ko mga styles nya kasi she's maputi and have nicer feet than me kaya pag ako ang nagsuot di bagay talaga, but when i give her shoes or sandals i make sure na bagay sa kin yung style and color para pwede ko hiramin, hehe.
sori wala me pix ng shoes kasi i love flipflops more
