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 ...

Since it is still June, it's still Father's month, haha!

But, who wants to be uncomfortable, right? I know I don't! Most people, if not all, want to live a comfortable life. Parents, most of all, desire for their children to live comfortably. It would break their hearts to see their offsprings in an uncomfortable, if not, hurtful situation.
There are many things that could make us squirm or cringe.
Change could be uncomfortable. So ...

Recap, Review, or Reflection? Cymplified!
Recap. Review. Reflection. Whatever.
Blogs are expected to post a year-end entry or a reflection of the year that was, it seems. There are also some that look forward to the things that the new year will bring. The "one word" that will hopefully be the guidance to achieve goals. Shall I do a recap, review, or reflection? Or that "one-word"?

Last year, I was reading a book called The One Year Love Language Minute Devotional by Gary Chapman. This was on top of the ...

July Birthdays, Cymplified!
July birthdays this year are sentimental for me. The idea of celebrations excite me, yet knowing that two of my children will be older, tugs at my heart.
Ten
The eve of my eldest's birthday, I strung and stuck these words on the wall to surprise her when she wakes up.
I made them with an electronic cutting machine!
Here's the dainty girly cake we bought from Red Ribbon Bakeshop. It's our go-to cake shop.
