A Mom's Shoes


When I was a kid. I am always longing for my mom. For her hugs, kisses, presence..
She has been an OFW for so many years.
I can even count the moments we have.
But..
My mom tried to buy me each princes doll I love. She tried to grant every wishes I had.
But since she was all alone providing for our needs, she failed.
I feel so disappointed with her. I grew up without her and accepted our situation. I even never expected the time she decided to stay and take care of me.
We both struggled for the adjustment we need to do. I felt like I am with a stranger. I made myself busy with my work. Years passed and I had a family of my own.
I became a mom.
Everything changed.
I clearly can understand everything my mom went through just to make me happy and her effort to give me a comfortable life.
I am now in my Mom's Shoes.
Sleepless nights. Mom 24/7. Never ending chores. Responsibilities. Thinking about my kids all the time. Selfless.
This is what every girl needs to be ready of. We must start to understand every situation our mom is going through. Why is she like this, or that.
I cannot give everything my kids wishes to. I cannot afford every toys they wish they have. But, I made sure they will not have the thinking I had when I was a kid.
I make them understand and accept our life and be thankful for what we can provide, for what we can afford.
That without those expensive costumes and toys,
They are still a Prince and a Princess for us. And they are our only priority.

My Love for Huawei

Before I was convinced by my husband to buy a new phone, I have been using my Sony Ericsson for 7 years. Yes. Out of trend phone. But it is still working great. No doubt of its brand quality. But since I am jobless now, I cannot afford any of its latest phones. So we decided to buy the Huawei Y6 ii in gold. Simple, trendy, and affordable. Plus the quality. The time we bought my Huawei Y6 ii, my husband has been using his Huawei Honor 4c in gold for over a year. Charging time 2.5 hours. 24 hours or more usage time. He dropped it many times. Still, working good. He have it for more than 2 years as of today. In short, quality of his mobile phone is already proven and tested. Which also helped me decide to choose the same brand. Here's my Huawei Y6 ii Lots of Free Themes on Huawei Themes itself. Camera is so good. With features to love. I got mine from Sm Megamall with some freebies. It's cost that time was 7,999. Comes with a bag, free ...

Bungang-araw / Prickly Heat Effective Home Remedies

It's summer. We all know, that bungang-araw/prickly heat is one of the challenges most of us faces during this season. My kids are one of those who suffers from that itchy skin problem. Here's a list of effective home remedies we have tried: Aloe Vera Gel - this one is very effective. We store it in the refrigerator. The cooling effect is very refreshing and it moisturizes the skin. Calamine Cream - it is to relieve itchiness as per our doctor. MoringaO2 Therapy Oil - our little girl's moisturizer since she was diagnosed with skin asthma. Very helpful, safe, and effective for the whole family too. Cetirizine - the doctor advised me to give cetirizine to my kids when they have skin problems to relieve the itchiness and prevent the kids from scratching. We use Allerkid for I think almost 10 years now. Avoid scratching. It will make the skin problem worst and open wounds will possibly cause infection. Kids cannot resist the call of scratching ...

Mom's hands are always full.. and so her heart.

My family is my life. Especially my kids. Like most moms say, I will do everything for my children. At the age of twenty, I gave birth to my eldest, Five. I have no any idea about being a mother at that time, aside from I need to feed and take good care of my son. Thanks goodness to my mom, for  the one on one hands-on training she gave me. I am so lucky I have her at my side and guided me on my first ever mom life experience. Just like other new moms, I have struggled doing what's right and be aware of the no no's. Everything is new. So much failures and self doubt. I failed to breastfeed my son. I don't have enough knowledge about breastfeeding that time as well as a support team. But still, it doesn't mean I was a bad mom, right? I did everything I can to become the best mom for my son. Each day is all about learning and practicing all about motherhood. I am so proud, I was present during those first crawl, first word, first steps, and with his every miles...
