Snowy Saturday and Birthday

I thought its already the start of the spring because for the past days the weather
is nice and sunny. But i was wrong, yesterday there's a snowstorm again and produced more than 10 cm of snow. The heavy snow yesterday was my biggest driving challenge so far. Though its snowing, we still attended Ally June's 6th birthday.






The cozy home of the Heuberger family was transformed into a children's party atmosphere with baloons of different color, sizes and shapes. I really like the design of their house especially the kitchen, the high ceiling and the furnishings. The kids enjoyed it very much, they have lots of fun and so are we.

Easter Preparation

Easter is the springtime holiday marking the rebirth of Jesus and the renewal of the Christian faith. A blessed time for the faithful to celebrate life, death and resureccion of our Saviour Jesus Christ. Here in Germany, most of the stores are already done with their decorations and starts selling easter articles. It's going to be another magical time for children to enjoy chocolate bunnies, marshmallow chicks and jellybean-filled easter eggs.

Litratong Pinoy- Kalikasan (Nature)

Magandang Hwebest sa inyong lahat mga kasapi ng Litratong Pinoy. Ang tema natin para sa araw na ito ay kalikasan or nature. Napakabait ng Panginoong Diyos sa atin sapagkat tayo ay biniyayaan ng magagandang kalikasan. Subalit marami sa sa ating mga kababayan ang inaabuso ang mga kalikasang ipinagkatiwala sa ating mga kamay. Dahil dito maraming problema ang dulot nito. Mapalad pa rin tayong nakatira sa Pilipinas sapagkat dalawa lamang ang maituturing na klase ng panahon, ang taglamig at tag-init, samantalang dito sa Europa ay apat, patapos na ang winter kung kayat nakakaawang pagmasdan ang mga puno na walang dahon.

A Day with Lucy

Today, Lucy and me met at Karstadt for a late lunch/early snack. Over a small plate of noodles, we talked lengthily about family life, future plans and their recent trip to Africa. She is a strong-willed woman with positive outlook in life. We then bought some food stuff at Asia shop and saw some Thai ladies eating a vegetable dish with lots of chilli.

Porcelain Collections

For many years, my friend blogger is collecting owls of different sizes and forms while i'm fond of angels and clowns. Last weekend, we visited a family friend and i was amazed by her collections, vases, flowers and other figures made of porcelain.

Multitasking

Women do multitask, we have established this fact. I can blog while i'm cooking, uploading pictures while ironing clothes, surfing the net while eating. The best way to pass the time while exercising is also to multitask- i'm running on a treadmill while watching my filipino movies. Being a mom also takes balance. Multitasking is a way of life and definitely a lifeline for all mothers.

Kids Early Training

Parents should trained early their children on family responsibility and sharing workloads at home. The key is to start when they are young. They should be given some insights on the importance of helping out in the family and let them understand the concept that household chores should be shared. Let them have something to do that is just expected of them, in the same way that brushing their teeth and washing their hands are expected of them.


Kati, Joy's daughter already know her responsibility at home. She even cooked her own lunch today and help her mother by preparing ingredients for cooking. Being responsible for tasks and feeling that they're part of the family fosters self-esteem, and besides it prepare her for one of her role in the future.
