When we adults are caught up in our grown up thoughts and dilemmas, it's easy to dismiss the concerns of the little ones. These may seem trivial to us, but to them, it's their whole world. Having children teaches us empathy, and when we empathize, we model this important skill to our kids. Little Things The little things of the little ones May seem little to us big ones But these little things are big things Like losing a doll or broken airplane wings These little things that make them … [Read more...]
Learning The Art Of Storytelling, Cymplified!
Thanks to my hubby Rix, I was able to go to The Art of Storytelling workshop. Thanks to Manila Workshops and GPG Bulilit Bookstore, I was able to go the workshop for free. It was a sunny Saturday.

Thank God it didn't rain because I took a taxi to the venue, Insular Life Building, Makati. Good thing there are … [Read more...]

Love Is An Open Door Valentine’s Day Card, Cymplified!
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, what plans do you have with your hubby and/or kids? My husband and I don't really celebrate it because of practical reasons like traffic jams and packed restaurants.

Frozen, Cymplified!
Is Disney's Frozen still hot in your home? It is in ours! We still sing the songs from the movie. Yes, I am included! :-D It was Ella's Christmas program in school that day. She's the adorable Christmas tree in the middle. My hubby Rix took photos and videos while I watched on with our two younger kids. Afterwards, we had lunch at Shakey's. Spaghetti, chicken and mojos, anyone? I love family moments like that! And what made it even better was when Rix declared we were going to watch Frozen in … [Read more...]
