Our Merry Christmas 2014

Belated Merry Christmas guys! Just got back to work after the Christmas break. Yes we have work today, December 29th. 

So how's your Christmas celebration? Our's is still simple as the previous years of stay here in Bulacan. Initially, we planned to go to our hometown in Nueva Ecija so we can celebrate Christmas with our entire family there. But that didn't push through as my mother can not stand long hours of travel. Also, we have a bulk order to finish. 

Oh yes, we gave in to a client's request but the deadline naman is January 15, 2014. That's why our at our spare time during the break, we do as much crochet as we can. Here are my two boys while we crochet early in the morning.

Merry Christmas!

Let us not forget the true meaning of Christmas ~ the Birth of Jesus Christ.

Merry Christmas everyone!

His First Christmas Party in School

Yesterday, I posted about Matthew's first educational field trip. Today naman, it's all about his first Christmas party in school.

Last Friday, December 19, Matthew's school held their 2014 Christmas party. The little boy was over excited because we told him Santa will give them gifts on that day. So I told him to write a letter to Santa on what he wants for Christmas.

His teacher told us that instead of the usual exchange gift, the parents will send gifts for their kids. They reminded us also not to tell our kids so as to surprise them. That's why when Daddy and I got a chance to go to the mall without Matthew, we bought his wish gift... Bumblebee!

Matthew Andrei's First Educational Field Trip

Last Monday, Matthew had his first educational field trip in Laguna. It's very fortunate that his fever has subsided. He had a high fever since Saturday afternoon and he just laid down the whole Sunday.

It's so painful to see him like that. Our little boy is always hyper kasi. That's why I will never used to see him sick and weak. Thankfully, before evening he's feeling better and his fever subsided.

Today I'll Be More Kind and Patient

The Lord God is showing me so much that I should be thankful for. He's telling me I should not worry about what will happen in the future for He is in control.

The truth is I often lose my faith in Him. I sometimes don't trust His plans. I worry a lot thus I feel so stress, impatient and unkind.

That's why it's a big slap on my face when I realize one day that God will never forsake us. That made me wake up from a bad dream. A bad dream that only me created. So allow me to tell you something that might also help you realize the greatness of God.

Monday Inspiration: Keep Safe Philippines

Another super typhoon is currently battering our country. Although typhoon Ruby's (Hagupit,  its international name) strength has weaken as she made her landfall, it was reported that she claimed two lives already. Now, she's heading to Luzon and will pass through Metro Manila at approximately 8 in the evening today.

With this let us pray that she will not claim any life and may God keep our kababayans safe and warm. May typhoon Ruby exit our country the soonest.

Keep safe everyone!

Flashback Friday: The Little Sweeper

Our son is a very helpful boy to the point that he will get very disappointed when he's not able to help us. I am happy that I can easily ask him to help me or to hand me something. Though there are times I already feel irritated because he won't let us do things without him helping.

What chore he loves to do? Look...

On Christmas Exchange Gift

Since it's already December, expect that there will be a lot of parties and gatherings.One of which is Christmas party, and this year we will have our traditional exchange gift. Last year, we didn't have an exchange gift instead we donate the money to Yolanda victims.

So last Sunday, after hearing a mass, Daddy, Matthew and I went to the mall to look for possible gifts we can write on our wishlist. Wishlist is helpful so as to give us a clue on what we can give to our monito or monita. But before I go on, here's our family selfie :)

Hello December!

Yes, hello December! 

Welcome to the most favorite month of the year.

Hello to traffic jam and shopping rush too, lol. But it's okay because December is still love. Because who doesn't love the cool December breeze that makes us so lazy to get up from our soft bed every morning? And what about the shining Christmas lights and the beautiful Christmas decorations everywhere, most especially at our home?

Of course aside from Christmas lights and decorations, we are also excited about gift giving. Our son just got his early Christmas gift from us for behaving well in school.
