AMEN (11.07.2013)

Saw this on facebook.  

Very timely.  

Just overwhelmed at work.  This too shall pass.  Still thankful though.  

Can't wait to go home and just hug my kids and my hubby.  

Back to work :)

ON TRYING TO BE THE BEST MOM EVER...

Every mom struggles to be the best they can be for their family.  I am one of that too.  I struggle on a lot of things.  Patience is first on the list.  And I failed a lot of times that resulted to me shouting and ending up all the more frustrated.  I don't want my children to grow up in a chaotic or shouting environment... and yet sometimes I lose myself.  

Then, I saw this video.  This was so heartwarming.  Moms were interviewed and were asked about how they think of themselves as a mom.  And then moms were invited later on to show how their children think of them.  Oh those wonderful messages of love from children.  Can't help but be teary-eyed out of joy.

I guess because we, moms, wanted to make a perfect world for our family, we always feel lacking or we think the things we do is always not good enough.  And how reassuring to hear from your loved ones that, though there may be bad moments from mom, what our children remember is our love for them.  

Yeah, maybe we should be a little less hard on ourselves... Let go of some imperfections... Enjoy our family more... And choose our battles.

Here's the link to the video.  Cheers to all moms and thank you, Mama!

SUPERMAN DOES NOT DANCE

Dear Nathan,

Here is your supposedly dance performance for your 2013 Halloween Party at KDC.  For some reason, you did not dance :)  

Well, I think I know why...

Maybe you're thinking Superman (and other superheroes for that matter) is not supposed to dance but to fly and rescue people in need...

Or maybe, you are just sleepy...

Whatever the reason is, okay lang, because I still enjoyed watching this.  

And when I showed you the video and asked about something, here is what you have to say:

Mommy: "Nathan, what were you whispering to Moe?" (in the video Nathan whispered twice to Moe)
Nathan: "GO HOOOME!!! "

Hahahaha naman anak.  If you don't want to dance, wag nang mang-BI ng ibang classmates hahaha Classic ka talaga, anak!

Happy Halloween everyone!  Here's the video and hope you'll enjoy it even if Nathan did not dance :)
