Being a mother is the best part of the life of a woman that's why I thought of creating this blog. I want to have a niche for all the wonderful feelings I have in my heart that I need to share to everyone else. And at the same time get tips from all the other mothers out there on how to become better on this 24/7 job of ours....

mother's best

Dancing Princesses

KPOP is really popular these days.  i get to hear a lot about it from my students.  i never really understood why they dressed up like the way they do, nor sang songs with lyrics they don't understand.  

last march, like we always do in school, we had this culminating activity.  i never thought i would enjoy the genre my students love.  i would normally sit on one corner and watch each group practiced for their performance day.  then, one day, i just realized, i was actually humming the tune of the songs they were singing, i was starting to feel the beat of each dance they were practicing.  before i knew it, i already asked one of them to send to me via bluetooth the video of the dance track. 

i had the video saved on my laptop.  i played it every morning with my daughters (one of our bonding activities is dancing).  they started to learn the steps by just watching the video.  next thing i knew, they were ready to dance it in front of our family.  to my delight, my daughter Tam, asked me to record their performance.  i was more than willing to do so (i'm always a proud mother).  

and now, i'm sharing this to all of you.  ENJOY!

I'M A MOM

Since June, i hardly have a good night sleep.  i always have about 4 to 5 hours to enjoy the comfort of our bed.  reason: i arrive home around 9 in the evening, have to check on the notebooks of my kids if they've done their home works, eat my dinner while browsing the net (checking emails, facebook messages and notifications, searching google for my lessons the following day), sleep at around 12 mn, wake at 4 am to cook food, set the table for breakfast, prepare three lunch bags (each has pack lunch, snacks, soup bowls, etc.), wake the kids at around 5 am (which i find really difficult especially with Kohbe), force them to eat breakfast, then assist them in bathing.  they are all set for school at around 6 am, their service arrives at around 6:10 am.  just then will i have time to face what i have to prepare for my class.  this has been my routine and even if i complain, there's no use.  

i really find this so tiring, but this is motherhood.  every mother's experience won't be complete without undergoing all these.  i would jokingly tell my colleagues, NANAY NA AKO NGAYON (I'M NOW A MOTHER).  some would ask, "why? haven't you realized that before?"
i only say so because i was not able to do all these before.  we had a house help ever since we had Tamarra.  i seldom washed dishes nor did i do the laundry.  i only cooked for my family if i felt like it.  now, whether i have to compute grades or just want to take a nap, i can't afford to do so. no one's gonna do these chores for me.  but guess what? i'm happy.  i was never this happy.  that's why i keep on telling everyone, nanay na ako ngayon.  it's a feeling you can never exchange for anything else.  yes! i get mad, i scold my kids for their wrong-doings, i get easily irritated, i don't want to hear them make noise at times, but at the end of the day, a kiss and a hug from them would melt my heart and make me forget what i just told them to do or not to do.

oh! how i love all my children!
