Growing up, I always see my mom hand washing our clothes despite having a washing machine. Soak overnight all the whites, spin in the washing machine then hand wash whatever is still dirty. This has been my routine as well. Yan ang naging batayan ko ng MALINIS. But syempre as years passed by, nauso na ang mga automatic washing machine. I always thought this will save me time and energy. But no, 7 years later, naghahand wash pa din ako.

It makes me anxious whenever I am outside and then all of a sudden my phone died. Ewan ko ba, but I feel like I am undressing in public. Ganun ako hindi mapakali. I guess it is because of my upbringing too.

Growing up,my parents would let me go out with friends as long as I update them of my whereabouts and call or send them a message once I’m on my way home. So I can not have a dead battery. If malolowbat na, it means I have to go home regardless if I just arrived or not.

Nosh and Kickstarters PH teamed up for an outta’ this world of parent-child bonding activity. Arriana had fun playing soccer with her Super Strawberry team. As you know, Arriana always plays with her brother. But this time around, there are professional coaches guiding them. I like how Kickstarters PH adjust to each kids and not the other way around. Arriana was able to follow the drills and even wanted to continue playing even after the game.

Christmas is the season of giving and sharing. Growing up, I am excited whenever this season comes. It is the time where most of our balikbayan relatives visit the Philippines. We normally have exchange gift. We had all sorts of kinds already from white elephant to monito-monita. Growing up, we know that Santa is not real (but we don’t kill that dream for other kids) Like how we were brought up, I always want my kids to know that Christmas means giving more than receiving. So no gift is small or big.
