Sunday afternoons are perfect. They are perfect for staying at home, watching TV, surfing the Net, taking naps, or just chillaxing. They are also perfect for rousing ourselves from laziness and doing something together as a family. I was excited when I learned that National Museum has waived its entrance fee for the whole month of May in celebration of National Heritage Month. At last, my hubby Rix and I could bring the kids to a museum! But, as you know, we ended up in Museo Pambata for two … [Read more...]
Googly Gooeys Watercolor & Lettering Workshop, Cymplified!
I have been commenting on and following the blog of Googly Gooeys since... I don't know when. I always find it amusing, light-hearted and I could relate with most of the topics. The colorful cartoons the creator Tippy illustrates make me crack a smile or giggle silently. If I laugh too loud, my children would peer into my screen and probably take over my laptop since the site is very eye-catching for kids and for adults who love colors. I mentioned before that I decided to take up watercolor … [Read more...]
Life Is …… by Judah Smith, Cymplified!
Have you ever asked the question "What is life?" I think that most people, at some point in their lives, have wondered about the reason for their existence. I know I have. Many times. People dabble in different hobbies, even religions, to find out what they should be doing for the rest of their lives or where they should belong. Have you? "Why am I here?" "Why did you make me, God?" "What is the point of all these?" "What is the meaning of life?" I imagine entering a quaint coffee … [Read more...]
The M’s Of Motherhood, Cymplified!
To the tune of 'What are little girls made of?': What are mothers made of? What are mothers made of? Guilt and grace... Cotton and lace... Cupcakes and wine... All things divine... That's what mothers are made of! 1. Mundane Do you agree that mothers are masters of the mundane? Parenting experts say that babies and children thrive on routine. I don't think anything could get more mundane than feeding, changing soiled clothing, bathing, napping, etc. - basically caring for a human's … [Read more...]
Mothers Are…, Cymplified!
Being a mother makes me acquire a deeper appreciation for my own mom. When my children were sick, and their temperatures had to be kept down with frequent wiping using wet face towels & paracetamol, I remembered my mom who would come into my room whenever I am ill, with medicine & a glass of water even in the wee hours of the morning. When I am tutoring my children and helping them do their homework, I think of my mom's patience with me, although there were times that she got … [Read more...]
Easter Egg Hunt at Universal Studios Singapore, Cymplified!
The warm Black Saturday morning promised a sunny afternoon as our group gathered near the entrance of Universal Studios Singapore. Ella pulled on my hand as she was very excited to go in. But let's take a photo first in front of the large rotating globe fountain! Oh, and plenty more photos ahead. Just a warning! Mommy confession: Ella has never been on an Easter Egg Hunt before. It had become a trend in the Philippines for kids to go on one at the end of Holy Week. Much like the … [Read more...]
Online Shopping with iprice, Cymplified!
How do you purchase the things that you need and want when you are a stay-at-home-mom with very young children, and it's very rare that you go out by yourself? And if you do, you limit your time so you could be home at the earliest chance possible? a. You ask your husband. b. You go online shopping. Most of the time I choose letter b. I do not want to inconvenience my hubby. ;-) I know that I said that I plan to own less and create more this year. In fact, I have already given away … [Read more...]
