Happy Saturday

This morning, I invited Matt to see and greet Mister Golden Sun for a dose of Vitamin D. It’s a beautiful morning and as luck would have it, a kid -pulling his broken toy cars ambled by while we were outside.
He stopped and talked to Matt (who was in my arms then). My son […]

Mama Is Thinking Aloud

Matt runs and scrambles for one window to another whenever he hears children’s voices and laughters -it’s heartbreaking at times. He so badly needs a playmate! It would have been lovely to have a brother or sister for Matt now.
Sometimes, he talks and plays hide and seek with the chickens. It’s so […]

Personalized Gifts

In a couple of months, Matt will be 3! How time flies. From a crawling baby boy, he’s now a flying boy. But seriously, he’s growing into a fine boy and I’m happy. But because it’s his birthday soon, I’m already on the lookout for something better to give him. […]

But I guess I really […]

We are Legends

I’ve given birth to a cartographer and linguist! And more amazingly, I’ve given to someone who discovered the lost continent of Atlantis!
 
“My name is Milo Thatch.”
 
What is your name again? I’d ask Matt.
 
“My name is Milo Thatch.”
 
How about your real name?
 
“My name is Milo Thatch and you are Kida.” So now not only do I […]

Crafts Ideas For Everyone

Spirit??

“The Name Of the Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen”
Matt echoed before my mother. He was saying this before eating his breakfast.
After the “amen,” he paused and said, “Spirit? Bad spirit?”
It was all I could don not to laugh as my mother earnestly explained  “spirit” in simple terms.
