Her New Stroller

Two weeks ago I bought Faith a new stroller as I promised it to myself, she doesn't have any personal toys she always got them borrowed from Kuya Yanyan or some old toys of Ate Mj. A new toy for her is not bad at all, she said wow when we saw the stroller in the display area and did not let it go until she saw bikes and scooters near where the toys are. She said wow again in a big loud voice.

But no, we cannot afford to buy yet the scooters or the bikes, I mean she got one scooter at home so I guess one is enough for her and besides she doesn't use her scooter that much because there were big kids who also would like to ride in it and accidentally hit Faith's toe nails, that's why sister Merlyn hang it somewhere for them not to get it easily.

Meanwhile, I have to motivate Faith to like the toy stroller and not those bikes, eventually she got interested with it then we hurriedly took Faith away from the scooters.


Live Chat

Have you ever visited a website, bought a product on the web, or just needed to trouble shoot your computer but did not have the time to call a customer service number? It has been my experience that one of the best ways to solve the problems is by using a live chat program.

Live chat actually lets you talk to a customer service rep that can help you solve your problem. If you own a business, one of the best ways to provide great service to your customers is by having a live chat capability on your website. Speaking from personal experience, I have found the customer service reps on the sites I have visited to be helpful, polite and very knowledgeable about the products they support.

A Helping Hand and Tips To Raise Smarter Kids

I was surprised with Faith yesterday because when we were falling in line to pay to the cashier, the guy before us was busy picking up his goods inside the basket in the floor, Faith was standing beside me, she was observing the guy yet then suddenly she picked up those goods in the basket and she handed it to him afterwards, the guy smiled at her when he extends his hand to Faith.

When it’s our turn, my youngest daughter still did not stop to help me, she was the one who picked up those goods that we shop in the grocery, and then gave it to me after; she has been very helpful while Mj was off to the CR. When Mj approached us to the counter, Faith was happily met her Ate while I paid the cashier for the things we just bought.

I know all of us wanted our kids to be smart when they grow up, and I am one of those parents who are aiming and wishing my kids to be witty at school or at any activity they will join. Last week, I spotted a Smart Parenting Magazine in the magazine stand inside the mall, since it has been awhile that I didn't bought magazine for me to read, I thought this is the best time for me to grab their issue this month.

Let me share to you the tips to raise smarter kids.

1. Create a loving and supportive environment.

Of course other people outside of your home, your relative perhaps can attribute your child's mind development by accommodating and promoting positive attitudes. Thus, building a loving and supportive environment helps make them feel safe and capable of being whatever they want.

2. Allow children to interact with other kids and increase their playtime.

Allowing them to interact with other would help them develop their social skills now and in the future. Interaction would also help them to build up leadership skills and emotional intelligence. Playtime is another means for natural learning, it allows them to experience and even learn different things in significant context.

3. Practice your kids to watch TV less.

Though it provides entertainment and an also be a tool to effective learning yet it decreases to develop your kids verbal skills.

4. Provide the right nutrition.

Adequate nutrition nourishes the brain and helps pave the way for better learning. Preparing them nutritious foods like fiber and essential vitamins and minerals would help your kids to be healthy

First and foremost I would like to say thank you to Mommy Willa of Smart Mommy for sending me a nice award.

I love blogging because since then I really like to write, I remember I had a diary that I kept from elementary to high school, I compiled like how many notebooks already but when we move out, it was misplaced and I can't find it anymore. Well if anyone will find it, they couldn't read it still, because I wrote it by code, and I am the only one who knows what’s the meaning of the code. Lol

So even I am not a good writer as good as anyone here in blogosphere, I still want to do it. It is really my passion to write what's in my heart and in my mind, so it is either they like it or not I guess this is a free country and perhaps it is my right to express my thoughts here, just pardon me if you happen to be confused my writings. Hehehe



Anyway, let me send this award to Clarinda of My Rendezvous, Fe of Journey of Life, and Judiel of My Life's Collection.

Their Modus Operandi

I would usually withdraw my money in a ATM machines, there are times that I would shop until sun down and I need to withdraw money at night time going home, the place might spooky or so creepy not with monsters or ghosts but theft and some burglars. Even my sister warned me of that because there might be some people who would snatch my money at that very moment, from then on I would avoid withdrawing money in a dark place where a ATM machine is located.

Now, since Christmas is just around the corner, you must be aware that, thieves are striking again these seasons; BSP (Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas) warned those cardholders to be more alert and have to watch out those thieves because they seemed to be kind and helpful when they approach you. They would victimized you even you withdraw inside shopping center, their modus operandi is they would approach when the cardholder just finished her/his transactions, they would tell the victim that there is a 500 pesos bill stacked in the machine, then right after that, they suggest the victim to make a balance inquiry of his/her account if it has a deduction of 500 pesos, then the suspect would intently observed the PIN number that you had encoded in the cash machine, they would drop a bill and would claimed that it is from the machine, when the cardholder is busy picking up the money, they would switch the ATM card so quickly from the machine.

Another modus operandi is what they called shoulder surfing, it is when the suspect stands close to the victim and will stealthily memorize the PIN number you encoded. The BSP offered some tips for us to be safe and secure with our transactions, when you are typing your PIN number in the keypad machine, shield it with your hand and if you notice that there's someone is standing close enough at your back, tell him/her to step back, or allow the next person to do and her/his transaction first.

If you spotted that a slot for inserting card does not seem right, walk away and don't do any transaction of that machine, do not share your PIN number even with your family and relatives and absolutely not with stranger.

Mommy Moments: Let's Pretend

mommy moments


Though my morning was not that good because of Mj's complaining me about her classmate who punched her on her tummy and I went to school in an instant to report it to her teacher, I will give the details on my other blog.

Moving on, since it is Mommy Moments today; I would set aside my temper for once and would enjoy the fun here. So here is my entry for this week.

My eldest daughter pretended to be the blue princess when she joined a pageant contest way back on her kindergarten days.


She was also appointed as one of the angels during their program when she was on her second grade.

And I would like you all to welcome the new Rambo girl in town, my very own little Faith, with a lollipop that she kept on licking.

Uhmmm Tsalap!

So I woke up so early this morning to prepare Mj a burger for her to bring at school for snack, I usually gave her biscuits and a drink and I realized yesterday, I guess to make her a burger would be a big treat. When we went to the frozen section, I bought patties, cheese and bread.

This is my first time to make a burger, it was easy I know and I can prepare it quickly. But the thing is my brother in law is usually the one who cook every morning except this morning since my niece doesn't have classes yet. So I really have to get up as early as I could and prepare Mj some food. I thought she doesn't like the patty since I didn't like the way it taste, but when I let her tried a little she asked me if she could bring two burgers. My sister Irenie like it too and Faith as well, it was funny for my youngest because every one bite, she would say "Uhmmm Tsalap" and when she pretended to give some of it to her doll in her new stroller, she would still be the one to say "Uhmm Tsalap"

I made five burgers and they ate it all, maybe it was really "uhmmm tsalap" hehehe

I Must Go Now

Today is the schedule for Faith's vaccination and I must prepare real fast, not to mention that I have to send a lunch for Mj at school, she woke up late, no actually my clock was late and I thought it was yet 7:30 a.m., so we ask her to buy a rice on the nearest store after she took a bath.

I was surprised when her carpool arrived before she even take her breakfast, we were really panicking, she needs to take her breakfast, good thing that sister Irenie bought a bread last night so I put those breads on her pack and ask her to eat that in the carpool, I hope she would really eat it.

I must go now, I need to get some things done as fast as I could and that means now, whew! The rain just pour aarrrgghs!!!
