Bakit Hindi Naman Natin Nakikita si God?”

Kwentong Tobias. One day last year, (I can’t remember when exactly) out of the blue, my 3 year old Tobias asked me, “Bakit di naman natin nakikita si God?” (Why can’t we see God?). So I tried to explain that eventhough we can’t see Him, He is real. He is

As a mother comforts her child…

Isaiah 66:13 As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you… So for some reason, I suddenly felt so down and sad. (Getting one of those spiritual attacks) Too bad for the attacker, I’m armed and armored! Okay, crying now while typing this, oh how good it is

In His Time.

As I look through the beautiful photos of my maternity shoot with NicePrint at Concept Room Studio, I couldn’t help but be amazed at the roundness of my belly, that an actual human being is inside. What a miracle! What a blessing! What a wonderful feeling to carry a baby

Off Days

My boys wakes up at around 6 in the morning without fail. And when they wake up, they make sure I am awake too by cuddling, kissing and hugging me. By pulling my face and laughing, by singing out loud and laughing and talking with each other. And this morning,

Overcoming Hormones

If you notice, the last post I posted on this blog except for the one yesterday about the Breastpump Giveaway was last December! December! And as I write this, all I want to do is go back to bed, lie down in front of the TV and do nothing! I
