A Soldier with his Weapons
Having three boys in the house is somewhat a head ache sometimes, but most of the time they love to play ball games with his brother and cousin, playing play station, watching cartoons on television and computer games is their past time but sometimes they love to play toy gun with his elder brother and that is one of my reason why I choose also a toy gun as one of his talent during the talents night competition in the search for star kids in their campus.
During his talents night competition they have a part that they will dance and how happy I am seeing my son dancing on the stage with plenty of people watching. I am very proud of my son maybe all mothers are very proud to their son especially when he is one of the chosen pupils in their campus to be one of the candidates.
After their fashion shows with their friends my son run to me and happy to share his feelings when he is on stage and he told me that mommy? Am I cute on stage? And I told my son that, yes son you’re very great and mommy is very proud of you. Until such time that we go home my son is very happy with his performance on stage and so the mommy.
Talent’s Night
In an early morning while preparing for the things to be done on the talents night, all candidates were having their final practice on stage for their presentation and modeling. How cutes watching the kids on the stage, I wait for them until they are done with their practice done late noon and the sun is getting heat and the kids are very much exposed to the heat of the sun. After their practice we went home for our lunch time and I let my son Niko to stay in the house take a rest for we will be attending the talent’s night and we also need to practice for his chosen talent. Through my own imagination I came up with my own idea what talent should I teach to my son, I get a toy gun and a toy hand grenade and let his elder brother join in order that they two both sparring on stage but his kuya (elder bro.) cannot be killed by a bullet so what my younger son did was remove his military uniform and under his uniforms he has an attire of being a Darna (super woman) and he push his brother and it fall down and died and from a military man he became a super woman, and the people begun to laugh. That’s all and his talent was done.
Choosing for the Right Nanny

Companion at home is a must for those who are mothers who are alone in the house, most especially now that my partner is working away from home and I have kids to be taken care of. Just in my case I two younger boys both are going to school everyday, every morning and I still have my pre-school niece which is also under my care so in total I have three kids now in the house and take note they are all boys and it’s not easy to take care of the three boys in the house without a nanny, me alone in the house is hard to handle and I badly needed a nanny to assist the daily chores. And one thing more if I have some important things to transact outside the house whom will watch for the kids for I can’t leave them in the house alone remember they are still kids and we don’t know what are their thinking.
Sometimes we can tell to our selves that maybe it is better to have no nanny in the house for sometimes they are also hard to be with, good if we can find a better one but sometimes we need also to adjust their moods for we are the one who badly needed for their service. But in my case I really need a nanny for I can go anywhere I want and do business outside the home without any hesitations for I have a nanny that can taken care of my kids when I’m out.
Secrets of a Lasting Relationship
husband & wife
Everyone of us, has different ways on how to handle the relationship, Some people say that it depends on both couple on how they handle and worked for their relationship.
In my case I have also my own opinion on how to make a lasting relationship; it’s just simple Yes it depends to both of you on how to handle, but we need to worked both like for example, if your husband has something to buy and he badly needed it but the wife say ‘No’ for they need to fasten their belt for they out of budget for that particular item. And the husband keeps silence until the arrived home. And that’s the beginning of their misunderstanding. To avoid the situation is that we need also to understand the needs of our partner for he don’t demand also to buy something if he don’t really need it and our partner also knows about our budget. So understanding is one of the secrets of a lasting relationship.
Another one is to love and to be loved. We must love our partner and vise versa because in most cases when the husband and wife stay longer or having a longer relationship the love disappear and it’s not a good thing to happen. We need to find ways and means or new technique and gimiks (strokes) on how to refresh your love with each other just like the first time you meet.
Love and Understanding and sharing of ideas also is the top most secret towards a happy and a lasting relationship.
My Love
hearts day
After so many years of loving you,
After so many things we’ve been through,
Still I couldn’t find the reason,
Tell me why am I in so much love with you?
This is to thank you for being by side
For comforting and caring when I was all confused inside.
This is for the phone calls you make every day
Just to tell me “I love you” every minute of the day
We are in the best years of our lives
Nine years on our journey together
I want to grow old with you…and you with me
I want to love YOU—FOREVER.
This is a short message that I sent to my hubby simple but full of love.
It’s More Fun to be Fit
To enjoy the glow of good health, we must exercise. I don’t recommend that we develop bulging biceps or go in for exhausting road walk and going to the gym. But I do say that if you will regularly devote even 15 minutes a day, preferably before breakfast, for 60 days to the simplest set of exercise even at home. I guarantee that you will enjoy the increased physical buoyancy and mental vigor that are necessary in these times. Perform them faithfully and you can take puffy inches of your waistline, recondition unused muscles, feel better, work better and live longer.
Every morning I put a disc on the player and play my favorite tae-bo exercise, I just follow what are the actions and the things needed to bend our body. Facing on the television with a loud music makes me feel better performing the exercise. A few minutes after, my sweat began to fall down on my head and my back begun to wet. I feel good and comfortable when I felt the sweat over my body and I do this in everyday and every morning before breakfast and before sending my son to the school.
This very important for us being a mother to be physically fit and mentally alert all the time for we have our kids to be taken care everyday in our lives.
Relaxing our Hands
hands
The hands are the main execution instrument of the body. They are involved in almost everything we do or feel. We throw up our hands in hopelessness; shake our fist when we are angry. When hands are kept tense, the whole body is geared for action. Learn to relax our hands when we find our self in a tight spot or when something irritates us. It will take the pressure off and give us a feeling that we are master of the situation.
Whenever we feel a sense of hurry, deliberately slow down. Everyone has his own best pace or tempo for doing things and situations to set our pace for us.
During our busy days we don’t notice the situations that we have plenty of things done in the house especially in typing in the keyboard even for an hour only but the muscles of our hands get tired and sometimes we go to the kitchen or in a bathroom and we forgot that we wash our hands so the nerves of our hands get easily tired and the cause of that is sometimes we can’t easily open or close our hands. And if we notice that we get tiered and our hands are a little bit flashy then stop the job.
Remember there will be something else to do tomorrow. So relax! Life is not 100 yard dash, but more in a nature to cross-country run. If we sprint all the time, we not only fail to win the race but we may not last long enough to reach the goal.
How to Relax our Jaws
jaw
Most of us, in practically all our everyday activities, are driving with that brake on. That brake is unconscious tension. We have to worked and played in a tense condition for so long that we regard it as more or less normal. We do not notice the clenched dew, the right abdomen, and the constricted muscles. Yet the resulting fatigue burns up our energy, impairs our skills and even dulls our appreciation of the world about us.
Tensions is excess effort; trying too hard to do things that should be done automatically. It causes muscles to jam and contact. Make a conscious effort to speak correctly and you shutter or become tongue-tied.
The jaw is the most expensive parts of the human body. We grit our teeth in rang, clench our jaws in determination. When your jaw is tensed, your brain, which is constantly receiving nerve messages from your muscles reasons something like this’ we must be in difficulty, we must have a terrible job to do.” We then become conscious of a felling of confidence.
As soon as we relax our jaw however our brain says ‘we are out of difficulty now.’ and you get a feeling of confidence. So every time we feel anxious or experience self doubt, notice that you are contracting your jaws. Then stop.
Parents waiting for their Children
waiting-area
Sacrifices and love of children is the most important for the parents especially if they have already a student. Most of the mommy’s that they have nothing to do in the house they prefer to wait their students until the class is done. For me, waiting for the whole class to finish is not an easy thing to do. Maybe for the pre-school students they were having three to four hours a day, so waiting for that long hour with out nothing to do is a waste of time. Any way kids cannot go out in their class if it is not yet time to go home so for me why wait and pick them up only during time to go home. But every parent has different reasons in life and maybe they really like to wait for their kids until they go out.
But as what I observed for the parents and nanny’s in the waiting area they all enjoyed with each other company, chatting, reading books and the rest are listening to the music on their cell phones just to kill the time and I salute to them for they have their patience and they also enjoyed waiting for their kids.
Time to snacks! Run to the canteen and buy something to eat and the rest stay only to their classroom for they have their own food that their parents prepare them to snacks. After two hours of staying in the waiting are my son call me and told me that they are already done with their practice and time to home, and I told to my co-parents that I will go ahead for we are already done.
Observing the Practice
i'm great
One sunny early morning when I send my elder son in school I also let my younger son to go with me also for they are having their practice for the said affair. While waiting for the scheduled time to practice, I found out that in the place where I set down I see a bulletin board and notice that there are pictures posted on it. I did watch and happy seeing my son as one of the finalist for the star kids contest in their school.
The practice will start in a few minutes and my son Niko was called by her teacher to join, as an excite son he run automatically to the stage. Watching them practicing is that I have plenty of things discovered about the pose, the way my son walk on the stage and I talk to myself that when we will be home I will let my son practice on how to pose and to win the interests of the audience. Snack time!!! My son shouted, I’m hungry and thirsty I need food to eat and I open my bag and get something to eat. After a few minutes he go back to the stage and practice again.
I‘ve learn a lesson that even we parents don’t like to wait and stay longer in school for there are a lot of things to be done in the house but we need to give support for the likes of our child and it is also one of their exposure to the people, and maybe it is there stepping stone as one of the model actors in the near future.
