>Untold Story

>Once upon a time there was a little girl who was very sickly. Everytime she got sick her mother won’t personally take care of her. She let everyone do it. The girl wishes that her mother should take care of her. The mother just gave money for the medicines and food but never asked the feelings of the little girl.

One time the little girl needed a doctor and everyone around her were very concerned but the mother was so mad to the little girl because she was thinking that the little girl was just acting. It simply hurt the girl. The mother don’t want to spend much for the doctor and medicines and preferred faith healing and herbal medicines.
Now… the mother got sick. Very ill and needs money for her food and medicines. The daughter is willing to give everything to her mother. She is sending money and medicines and make it a point that the mother is doing great.
The mother called one day and she is crying. She is concern for the expenses but the daughter didn’t mind and willing to help the mother all through out.
The daughter is not concern anymore if the mother feel guilty of what she did in the past, all she wants is the best for her mother.

>Overwhelmed!

>

And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Colossians 3:15-17


Today, my heart is full of emotions. I am very thankful for everything that is happening in our lives. I know that God answers our prayers. We’ve waited for it for almost 4 years and finally all our dreams are coming true and reachable.
Thank you Jesus!

>Vikings – The Eat All You Can Restaurant

>



Last Saturday, We decided to invite friends to come with us to Vikings. This is also part of my birthday celebration. Vikings is the newest Eat all You Can Restaurant in the Metro that we haven’t tried yet. It read good reviews and so excited to try it myself.

I thought it is just like the typical eat all you can restaurant that offers seafoods and smokeless grilling. It has different food varieties that everyone will definitely love.
They are offering the following:
Japanese Food
Korean Food
Italian Food like pastas and bread
Chinese Food
Spanish Food like paellas
Pinoy Food like lechon…
When my husband called them a week before for reservation it was already closed for reservation so we decided to walk in and hoping to get a seat. It took us 2 hours to finally get in.
I love the food and of course the place!
We will be visiting Vikings soon to try other foods.

>Hey!

>I’m still here!

It’s a busy week for us. Well, we are preoccupied by our daily routines such as sending Gareth to School and Therapy Center, Pillow’s Birthday Preparation and of course as a Country Marketing Manager.
Everyday Gareth has a class and therapy so we are very busy attending all this and so happy that there are some visible developments. I can’t wait for more.
About Pillow’s birthday celebration, I already booked the following:
Venue
Venue Decor
Photography
Videography
Cakes
Cupcakes
Host
Food Carts
Today we bought the 40 toys as prizes at Toy Kingdom. We are like kids when we are picking the toys. I so love the feeling. I miss the feeling of being a kid again and I just keep on picking toys I wanted.
By the way, I also hire a Party Planner to manage the event and I hope everything will turn everything so perfect!
We are doing this for my little girl, this is our celebration for giving her to us and of course for surviving the hardships we had during pregnancy.

>Love! Love! Love!

>

I know that I am very good this year! We’ve been through a lot of ups and downs and sometimes I want to give up but happy that I am still here.. holding on!
Hubby bought me the things I wanted and I really appreciate that He pays all! Thanks my dear!
The gifts are:
1. Kindle 3
2. Fossil Bag
3. XOXO Watch
4. Isey Miyake’s Perfume
5. Suede Boots
When I received all this, hubby loves the giggles in me.
XOXO

>What’s UP?

>I am busy reading ebooks lately through my Kindle3. I have 3,500 free ebooks from the seller and I am so happy! Of course I can’t read all the books but I am trying to choose something that interests me.

I have 25 books saved in my Kindle and so excited to read my first 25 books. I still find time reading between 2am to 5a.m when I’m done working and just waiting for the managers to email me if they have concerns but most of the day they are not bothering us so I think it’s the best time to read.
I am also downloading scrapbook templates for Pillow’s Guest Book. I hope I can create unique pieces.
It will be a busy weeks ahead but I will still try to update my blog regularly.

>Very Special Day

>
It’s just a like any ordinary day. Hubby woke up early to drive Gareth to school. Actually, I should be with them but I am too lazy to get up since I sleep late at 5a.m. and besides I have works to do so I decided to extend my sleeping hours til 1pm.

Hubby went home with a Cake then headed to Shopwise for Pansit ingredients.
I have a very special celebration with my husband, kids and siblings. So happy!
I am very thankful to God for the great 32 years and I hope He will continue to bless me of perfect health, opportunities and love.

Lord, thank you for giving the great husband and wonderful kids. Thank you also for having my family around me though they are not always great but I am happy that no matter what happens we stick together!
Grant me more patience and love so that I can continue to share the best in me. Guide me always because sometimes I am not always nice.
Thanks for the best years!
Happy Birthday to me!

>Spender?

>For this week alone I will be spending 20k for shopping alone! OMG! I know that I need to stop! okay… just let me be.. it’s my birthday month!

Weekly hubby is giving me allowance to shop but sometimes I don’t use it, instead I save it so I am still a good girl.
But lately.. I’m not. My orders from U.S are here and I need to pay in full and I want to get the kindle 3 soon so there…
After all this… I realize I should stop. Of course I know when to stop. I am not really into it but when I am stressed or depressed my only outlet is to shop online.
Lately, I think differently. 70% of our income goes directly to our savings account but I believe that it will not earn that much so I decided to put it somewhere safer but earns more.
So I look for a Financial Advisor and so happy that I found someone that has a passion in it. I learn a lot from her and tomorrow we will be meeting for the first time. I am excited and all my questions are ready.
I can’t wait.. and I think this is a wiser decision so far.
oooppss maybe I’m just getting old or matured? but no matter what you called it, I think I am wiser now that I am 32. 😀

>Waiting for my New Kindle

>

I’ve been eyeing this for months but still not convince if I really have to get it until I downloaded ebooks and my eyes got irritated reading ebooks through my laptop. The screen of my laptop is harsh to my eyes.
This is really fun.. I can read my fave books anywhere I go.

>Excited!

>

I got a text message today from a friend that my orders are here, she is the one ordering my stuffs from U.S. I usually order items from Amazon, like books, toys, bags, clothes and shoes. I let her order it so that I can save the super duper high shipping fees.
My orders are:
Fossil Modern Cargo Convertible Tote
I’ve waited for this bag because this is my birthday gift! I never thought that it will come right in time. So happy!
I order this for Pillow. Actually, I spent too much for toys. I believe that kids should be given toys appropriate for their age and abilities.
This is for Gareth. He really needs educational toys a lot. Actually he only prefers playing cars and trucks but I stop buying it anymore because I wanted him to try other toys. I know this is somewhat boring for him but he really needs this one. This is also one of the tools he is using in the therapy center.
I also bought books, actually guide books and I can’t wait to read them.
Now my new shopping list is ready…
