God is sending us another miracle!

Truly God answers prayers in the exact moment when He feels you are ready for it. After seven long years of constant prayers and waiting, God finally answered my prayers, not to mention Bea's prayers which goes along this line: "Jesus please give us another baby, a baby boy, only one please!" I don't know about her, but whether God gives us a little boy or a girl, it doesn't matter. What's important is, He has finally answered our prayers! :)

25 Rules for Mothers of Daughters.

I found  this article in the internet. I did not write this article and found it to be applicable to me and my unica hija. So sorry I didn't find the name of the writer since it was written anonymously.

25 Rules for Mothers of Daughters...

1. Paint her nails. Then let her scratch it off and dirty them up. Teach her to care about her appearance, and then quickly remind her that living and having fun is most important.

2. Let her put on your makeup, even if it means bright-red-smudged lips and streaked-blue eyes. Let her experiment in her attempts to be like you…then let her be herself.

3. Let her be wild. She may want to stay home and read books on the couch, or she may want to hop on the back of a motorcycle-gasp. She may be a homebody or a traveler. She may fall in love with the wrong boy, or meet mr. right at age 5. Try to remember that you were her age once. Everyone makes mistakes, let her make her own.

Beaboo Anecdotes Series

Bea playing with her leappad, teaching me how to play Brave (from the movie)

Bea: mommy.. so thats the LEAVING DOOR!
Me: the what? you mean its alive? like a "living" door?
BEa: no mommy! that's the "leaving" door because its where you go when you want to leave! (and she says it as if its a natural thing to have "leaving" doors in every house.)

Bonding Moments...Baking

Kids are such a joy to work with. They are passionate little souls that help you wholeheartedly once they put their minds and hearts into something.

At times when we feel like eating cookies, rather than just buy them, we bake them! And what better way to bond with your little ones than baking!  Whats fun about it is,

Bea's New Tweety Neighbors

photo from the internet

Just this weekend, while Beaboo and I were playing (yes I play with her too :) at the backyard, there was this little tangerine Maya bird (who looks a lot like the photo on the left) going back and forth in one of Lola Cora's hanging plants...

DIY Christmas wrappers and presents

"Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas... dum...dum... dee dum...."

I can't help singing that song as I see Christmas decors everywhere - in the mall, the lanterns and lights adorned on houses we pass by at night...Of course, in our house our tree has been up since after Beaboo's birthday last October, thanks to our official Christmas decorator - Lola Cora! :) It has been a tradition to decorate our house and put up our tree right after Oct 5. since Lola has to go back home to Paranaque after that. So yes, it has been Christmas-y in our house really early. 

But yesterday, I was busy wrapping a few Christmas presents. And my little girl was busy on her own. Guess what my busy little bee's up to?
