EFFORTS

09.09.09 This is a stormy birthday for me...My husband dressed the twins and they went off to school. He didn't bother waking me up for my special day... The weather is so cold that I didn't even notice that they left.. I was still under my blanket and cuddling my pillows.. When I woke up, I read my mobile phone with 23 unread messages greeting me a very happy birthday...

I get off the bed and was surprised to see a gift from my hubby outside our room..It was wrapped in a pink wrapper and with a message on it. I was touched by his gesture because I know that it is an effort for him going to the mall and such an effort also picking a gift, having it wrapped and placing a message on it because he is not the type who loves to do such things. But surprisingly, he did and I am very happy... When I get down the stairs, I saw the white board of my twins with messages on it also. I noticed that my tears shed out of joy...I was walking outside and my nanang greeted, smiled and hugged me...I opened my facebook account and a lot of greetings were also there...My family from Dubai and my brother osep called to say that they remembered me on my day.. These are what birthdays are all about.. being able to see our worth..being able to feel that we are truly appreciated.

At this point in my life, I am very blessed to have a loving family who values me more than anything, a good health, a circle of true friends, a career, a growing business...I couln't ask for anything more...More than anything, I thank God for everything he keeps pouring my life...

LEARNING HAVEN

This is our seven month old daycare center...It is called "SALINGKET" which refers to an individual who is made a member of a group even though he or she does not possess all the requirements for membership. Derived from the words "sali" meaning to join and "pusa" meaning cat. "Pusa" acts here as a placeholder;

The center caters to the early preparation of kids before the formal schooling... We now have 28 students. Half of it is from the morning session and the other half is the afternoon session. Most of the kids age ranges from two and a half to four years old.

Building this daycare center is not easy but I would also say not that hard for me and my mom who is an educator for almost 30 years now.. except that we really need to establish it within our limited budget.. It is not that hard because it is my Mom's passion to teach and mold the minds and characters of the kids.It is her calling...The center is built out of the desire to produce well rounded and competent individuals with good character..More than just the business, it is a fulfillment to see a child's progress thru proper teaching and education..

I will be posting more about salingket in the next few days...our mission/vision and our core values..

Have you ever taught your children how to pay respect in a Filipino way, like "pagmamano"? Ask even a two year old child from Salingket and they will teach your children how...

monetize

My blog is 6 days old..It was last sunday when I tried to write something and finally arrived on - create a blog at blogger.com. It's very easy and user friendly..I've read so many reviews and forums on how to create a blog and was surprised that you can earn also from it.. I have no idea on how it works, but I just told myself to give it a try..I have read the forums and it says that you can earn thru adsense but it really takes a while to get approved, the forum said that it takes a month or 20 posts or so...I was not really expecting to be approved, I just enjoyed writing new post..I added widgets , pictures, and I was excited to write new experiences here..Finally, just this morning, I was so happy to see this in my mailbox....

Congratulations!

a seed of faith

"God is good, God is great..Thank You Lord for this day, Bless us in our way, and make us good children always...Amen.


This is the simple prayer of my twins, everyday..I am very happy that at a young age, we were able to teach them how to pray...we are able to make them realize the concept of our Creator, the concept of gratitude and a simple seed of faith.. My constant prayer is to give them a good heart and a life worthy of the Lord..with these I know that everything else will follow..

It's crafty time

My free times are best spent on my craft works, this is where my creative juices splurge and my best ideas sets in..I love the end results of my art works as it represents my positive, happy and simple things in life..It is when my mind is focused and free from any worries..I love to do trinkets and crafty things, until my highschool friend introduced me of POLYMER CLAYS..I initially bought one in deovir SM North only a few bars of it until I enjoyed doing so.. these are not ordinary clays that we buy from any bookstore as it requires baking them in an oven toaster for a few minutes or so..here are some of the works that i would like to post.. iwill be posting more in the next few days..ciao!!
