March starts with a recount of Chapter February.
As I march into March with nonchalance as I kiss my children's cheeks before they entered school, I had a plan to post a few key moments of February.
Come evening, I was suppressing a slight feeling of panic as I thought of the things I have to do before May arrives. It's also the month when the children will have their fourth quarter exams.
It's always a stressful time for me. To nag and help my kids review. To print pages upon pages of review ...

A poem called “Our Love”, Cymplified!
When I was much younger, I loved to compose poems. Especially ones that rhyme. I have the notebook to prove it.
As I read it now, they seem childish and shallow. But, it felt great to create and create, even without showing them to anyone. I didn't need any approval.
Recently, when I write poems or draw or paint using watercolor, these ideas do not flow as well as before. There's something hindering me from even starting and taking the first step. Probably myself or the doubt that it ...

Parents’ Christmas, Cymplified!
the parents' Christmas lists
'Twas the year before Christmas, and all through the world, plan-ahead parents are writing down potential gifts for their family and friends. The parents' Christmas translate to seemingly endless lists.
A list of the gifts the mommy, the daddy and the children were given. Doing this gives them the idea of what to expect or the amount they could reciprocate in kind. Also, the past gifts that the family gave out, so there'd be no duplicate. I confess I do not do ...

Family Getaway: Romantic Hillcreek Gardens Tagaytay, Cymplified!
The first reason I snapped up a deal for an overnight stay in Hillcreek Gardens Tagaytay on Deal Grocer is because the room offered has two queen-size beds, perfect for our family of five... As of now. While the three of them could still fit in one bed.
The second is, I wanted a beautiful place for our wedding anniversary getaway. Hillcreek Gardens just screams romance! It's a wedding venue after all.
There was even a garden wedding ceremony on the day we checked in.
Third reason is the ...

Family Day Out: Sweat It Out At Okada Play, Cymplified!
Summer vacation means bored children at home.
I have joined the horde of parents who want their children to avoid using the gadgets for hours and hours. These devices are addicting and children have a hard time controlling themselves. If they are to use their eyes for something, I would rather they read books.
My eldest, Ella, said that reading books without illustrations or pictures is boring... Until, she read Rick Riordan's The Heroes of Olympus series. She finished the five books this ...

Appreciating Daddy, Cymplified!
Since it is still June, it's still Father's month, haha!
A short but sweet post about appreciating daddy...
And all the people (the moms, the siblings, the uncles, the aunties, the godfathers, etc.) who are like dads; giving guidance and sharing strength.
To the dad who would not miss the birth of his child for work or for the world, who is there to ensure his newborn is well-taken care of right from the start. He is there when his wife is recovering... Providing her with everything she ...

Gratefulness List at 37, Cymplified!
I cannot deny it. I am getting near 40. Three more years and then, I'll be 20 again. Isn't 40 the new 20? :lol:
This post is about my appreciation of the experiences throughout my life, but summarized.
Gratefulness list at 37 years old. In no particular order.

Having studied in a Christian school is one of the things I am thankful to my parents for. This is where I first met and believed in Jesus Christ. ...
