When Your Child Writes the Greatest Story

Found this piece of crumpled paper on my daughter’s bed and read the content before I dispose. My heart melted when I realized how my 11-year old perfectly understood the love of God. As a mom, there is no accomplishment greater than to know that your children are growing to know the Lord. I would…

Our Children’s Dedication

A child dedication is a ceremony in which believing parents, and sometimes entire families, make a commitment before the Lord to submit a child to God’s will and to raise that child according to God’s word and God’s ways. Dedicating a child acknowledges God’s sovereignty not only over the child, but also mom and dad. Parents present…

Submission in Brushing Teeth

My youngest daughter is a sweet little girl, but she does not want to brush her teeth. We don’t know why but she cries when she sees me holding her toothbrush. I’ve showed her different toothbrush songs, bought her a nice toothbrush and her favorite character Minnie on a toothpaste but it still didn’t change her…

2015 Highlights

There were a lot of wonderful things that happened in 2015 and every single blessing is to be credited to the Lord. I’ve listed the past year’s highlights: God allowed that more and more of my family members get to know Christ more. We’ve shared the gospel to 3 of my nephews and nieces and…

Thankful everyday

It isn’t just today, Father’s day, that I am thankful for the father of my two lovely daughters. Whenever I look at him, I am reminded of God’s love for me. I am in awe about how He orchestrated this life – from time I met my husband for the very first time and until…

Katy turned 1

Seems like just yesterday when I was back to the hospital where I gave birth the very first time, this time scheduled cesarean section operation, wearing a gown, waiting for the final moment when my back spine would be injected by general anesthesia (and praying for strength and courage because it hurt so bad) and…

Blessed and Full of Years

My dad celebrated his 81st birthday 2 days ago. What a blessing it has been to have seen him reach this age. What a privilege to have him as a father. Growing up, I would recall him bringing me to school as he fetched my other siblings. He would wash me up after my sessions…

How Can I Improve?

As proud human beings, we always (or maybe I) always think that I am doing well. Well, reality hits me today. I asked my daughter earlier why she would be respectful to me and would not listen to me. I asked her how can I improve? She said: 1.) Have more time for me. 2.) Do not…

2 months

Two months have gone so fast. Well it was two months of literally being awake almost the whole day, washing baby clothes and bottles not to mention the countless times of carrying a baby while singing and a little bit of dancing too. It was tiring, rather, very tiring but I would not want to…

Lessons from breastfeeding

This is my breastfeeding story. As soon as i found out that I was pregnant, I had already planned that breastfeeding would be the path I’d take to feed my baby. I have had read several blogs of breastfeeding moms and I wanted to take the same route. I studied and researched breastfeeding techniques, bought…
