A Mother's Hand A mother's hand is there to carry My weight when I was born A mother's hand is there to stroke When I cry with forlorn A mother's hand is there to wash Away the day's dirt and dust A mother's hand is there to feed Since being healthy is a must A mother's hand is there to support When I lose balance from my walk A mother's hand is there to clap When I start to babble and talk A mother's hand is there to soothe When I acquire bumps and bruises A mother's hand is … [Read more...]
Lesson from Elle {Sharing}, Cymplified!
Sharing, a concept that is not easily grasped by children since they are moving in a world where they are the center of everything, and admittedly, not by us adults, too. Children's innocence is amazing, they don't hold grudges. Their beautiful hearts are ever forgiving. Even though these kids were bossy and didn't play with her at times, my daughter Elle still wanted and insisted to share our food with them. And that brought to my mind this lesson from the Lord: So, I … [Read more...]
Loving Mommyhood and Blogging, Cymplified!
This is an official entry to Dainty Mom’s Bloggy Goodies Contest, in celebration of the Dainty Mom blog’s 2nd anniversary. Loving Mommyhood Ten years ago, I would never have envisioned myself as a wife and mother, and a stay-at-home one at that. I am not exactly domesticated, you know? I didn't really adore children and I am terrified of the pain childbirth brings. But here I am, with three babies and trying to be the best mommy that God wants me to be. So far, I find myself loving … [Read more...]
A, You’re Adorable, Cymplified!
I dedicate this song to my three adorable children! Whenever I look at their tiny faces, I feel like busting into this song. I thank God for them each day. I pray for their health each day. One of the things I love about being a mom is that I get genuineness from my kids. They sincerely adore me and are truly happy to see me. *sigh* The video below is funny, especially when Cookie Monster appeared. It's just so weird that a puppet has a girlfriend. A, you're adorable B, you're so … [Read more...]
Gymini Kick & Play, Cymplified!
This gift Cayla received last Christmas seems to promise less time carrying her. Tiny Love's Gymini Kick & Play proves to be an environment of visual and tactile stimulation for my baby to keep her occupied when awake. The only instrumental music played here is by Mozart. The device with the switch says so. Each move produces sounds because of the hanging rattle and chime, the pop-up objects on the mat with noisy plastic inserts and the pad that lights up while playing animal sounds … [Read more...]
The First 365 Days Memory Keeper, Cymplified!
Being a mother, the desire to record each and every one of my child's milestones is a natural thing. But when life (read: feeding then burping the baby, sleepless nights, changing the diapers) gets in the way, updating the first yawn or the first sneeze in the baby book gets waylaid. Enters mommy guilt for forgetting such a significant event in my baby's life. Admittedly, if I wasn't gifted with a baby book for my first child, I wouldn't think of buying one until it was too … [Read more...]
Mommy Treats, Cymplified!
I'm glad I got to experience Mommy Treats. Thank you, Ms. Paola for sponsoring a game in the baby shower at Medela House. I got to sample a week's supply of bite-sized cookies and muffins. I have to say they were yummy! I wasn't turned off by the supposed to be bitter aftertaste, which I found the strongest in the chocolate muffins. My favorite was the banana walnut flavor. When I felt a dip in my milk supply two weeks prior to this day, I ordered another week's supply of lactation treats. Of … [Read more...]
