Then 2020 year turned out to be a surprise new baby blessing! We were all super thrilled to have Euan that year, we couldn't perceive pandemic without this cute little guy.

Borrowing a car - make sure you fill up the gas at the same level (better if more or full tank) when you borrow it.

"Train Up A Child in the way he should go, so when he is old he will not depart from it" Reciting it now that I have 3 kids feels different. It felt heavy, hmmm not easy... yes difficult but doable. How can I raise someone without breaking them? How do I show them the way? How do you make them feel loved while you discipline them? How do you teach them to value the things emhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15561475997205729140noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24888605.post-30306577954084456442022-06-21T16:22:00.004+08:002022-06-21T17:27:27.734+08:00Almost half yearHow fast was 2022?

Children, Obey your parents in

I’ve struggled with obeying my
parents yesterday. I got so many errands to do, have to accompany hubby in the
project he’s currently doing the whole morning and I got to go and pay her
Meralco bill and she also requested me to go to the doctor’s clinic to ask

I was not ready for this. Thea was quiet I wanted her to talk but she opted to close her mouth but this little guy is like a parrot who repeats everthing he hears be it good or bad so we better watch our language when he's around (well everytime naman dapat).

For friends, hmmm maybe.
For married couples, NO.
You have to choose to love your partner every single day even if it feels like you are the only one exerting effort.
Marriage is a commitment and growing up is not a ground for annulment.
So choose who you will marry wisely because if you make that 'till death do us part" oath you are binded for life.
