Mother's Day 2013

On May 10, 2013, I received an early mother's day gift. McKenzie came home from school carrying a pink paper with a ribbon. She looked so proud as she handed it over to me and she kept on saying "Happy Mother's Day!".
She told me she was the one who colored the rose and even signed her name below.
BEST GIFT EVER!



May 12, 2013, Mother's Day:
I was hesitant to go out because there were still a lot of tasks and hours to finish for the work week but my husband insisted. Heard mass at ATC, there was even a special blessing and prayer for moms at the end of the mass. 

They dropped me off at Ton Ton's BF for my much needed Thai Massage, and waited for me at Starbucks.


I was kindda craving for something Thai but we opted for Korean Barbecue (again!) in Sam Won because it looked like a great place, it was packed, parking is full and some has to wait for a table.


We were lucky to get a table right away.




We ordered 2 platters of meat for grilling so we can have it grilled on our table, 3 cups of rice and 2 cans of soda. It was a meal for 4-5 persons but we finished it all. Side dishes, lettuce and cold tea were free and refillable.




What is Great?
- Food was delicious!

- Meat was fresh

- Side Dishes were all yummy


- Ate, our server, was helpful and proactively assisting us

- Free Side Dishes

- Free Lettuce

- Free Cold Tea

- A Very thrilled and happy McKenzie




What's not?
- NONE

Fulltime WAHM since Nov 2009. My decision to become one gave birth to this blog. 😍 In 2015, my husband started KANSIS Made and I had to juggle my time between freelance work and being the business director of our micro-enterprise. In doing both plus being a hands-on mom, I've always met challenges with time management. But in every crossroad, I always remind myself of the reason why I decided to leave the corporate world and become a fulltime WAHM - to have more time with my family. I've always tried to advocate the benefits of being a fulltime WAHM to fellow moms and moms to be. I don't tire of talking about how I started as a fulltime WAHM and together with my husband, we managed to pay off the house, the car and send our daughter to school.

Unlocking the (sad) moments: Angelina

M is an only child. But not really... we have two more but both were too special, God took them back right away. Genesis is M's Kuya. I wrote about our first miscarriage in Jan 2009. In 2016, we gained another angel. But it was too painful, I managed to lock the memory in. I've spent years trying not to think about what happened.  I think I erased it from my mind. Today is Angelina's 6th year in heaven. As I recover and heal, the memory of losing her is slowly coming back. 2016 It was a really busy year. It was a busy year for Kenny and KANSIS Made. It was a busy year for McKenzie. It was a busy year for me as a WAHM. We were all too busy, we didn't know I was pregnant. In August, we went to Bacolod with Ken for his Dremel Brand Ambassador stint. I had spotting when we were inflight. But I didn't really mind it. I thought my period was coming. --- these parts are still missing, I will try to add when I remember. Sep 7 we rushed M to the hospital where she was admi...

when i meet love again

when i meet love again, i hope i’ll be enough. i hope it chooses me without wanting to change me. i hope i'm exactly what it’s looking for. and if it finds out i'm a work-in-progress and a little damaged, i hope it still sees me as someone worth staying with. when i meet love again, i hope it's clear. i hope it shows up as love, not sadness in disguise or just temporary happiness posing as romance. i hope it knows that loving me means having me on my best days and also my boring, weak, and unlovable days. when i meet love again, i hope it meets me halfway. i hope it’s excited to be loved right, just as it wants to love me right. i hope it’s the one that will happily reciprocate my energy, learn my habits and languages, and go the extra mile to show me what i deserve. and finally, when i meet love again, i hope this time it’s meant to last
