Empowered Princesses, Cymplified!
This video brought tears to my eyes. I don't know why! Post by Everyone Matters. It may be because I love Disney princesses, that's why Elle likes them, too. I don't think princesses are girls who are spoiled and bossy. I think they are girls with substance; especially love, kindness and gentleness. There's a reason or two they are loved by their people, and I don't think it's because of their pretty faces. For me, girls with good hearts and good manners are considered … [Read more...]
Add Mo ‘Ko As Friend by Marlene Legaspi-Munar, Cymplified!
Here's another book I got for free care of @OMFLit in its blogger event I attended. It's addressed mostly to students and the younger generation. It's written in Filipino-English and with words relatable to the children of today. Add Mo 'Ko As Friend is a handy guide to being a good friend, online and offline. Since almost every student is now on social networking sites like Facebook or Twitter, this book offers reminders on the usage of these sites. For example, "don't give too much … [Read more...]
Brave Movie, Cymplified!
This movie had touched something deep inside me. Mainly because it's about the relationship of a mother and a daughter. I can empathize with the way Elinor felt after Merida stormed out of the room when they were fighting. Like Elinor, I treat Elle harshly when in anger, one too many times. :-( Like Elinor, I regret what I did, regret how the situation got out of hand, regret how nothing was resolved. Like Elinor, I cry, consumed with guilt and worry. Brave movie is a reminder for me … [Read more...]
Thank You, God, for Blessing Me by Max Lucado, Illustrated by Frank Endersby, Cymplified!
Thank You, God, for Blessing Me is a children's e-book for children two to six years old. It's about a plump caterpillar called Little Hermie praying to God. He enumerates the blessings he is thankful to God for. This story is to inspire little children to also look around, smile and bow their heads in prayers of thanksgiving. One Christian value I want to instill in my children is thankfulness. I read this with my 5-year-old aloud and asked her to copy Little Hermie and say his prayer of … [Read more...]
Solo Flight, Cymplified!
Thanks to OMF Literature, I got the book Solo Flight by Grace D. Chong and Francie Castañeda-Lacanilao. You might be wondering why I, a married person, would read a book about singlehood. Well, I was curious, for one. And also, before I hand this book over to my Christian, single friend (if she haven't read it already), I wanted to read it first since it was signed and addressed to me. Ha ha! Who wouldn't want to soar and be the best at his or her chosen field or calling? Some may do it with a … [Read more...]
