I have a confession to make. (Yes, another one. I know I've made these before, so please bear with me.) I was a bit emotional on Monday morning while we were having our family prayer time, before my husband left for work — I started tearing up in the middle of our prayer, causing our … Continue reading Word-filled Wednesdays: Casting Our Cares Upon Him

Happy Feast Day, St. Therese!
I can't believe it's already October — which means it's officially the last quarter of the year! So many things have happened and there are still so many things to do/accomplish for the remaining part of the year! Lord, please help us! (Heehee!) Exactly one year ago today, I wrote a post on my old homeschool … Continue reading Happy Feast Day, St. Therese!
Who You Are: A Message to All Women (and Men, Too)
A few days ago, I saw a video on Facebook that really inspired me. I told myself that I would look for it on YouTube later on so I could share it here. Last night, I kept trying to look for it but I couldn't find it. Then, just this afternoon, by God's grace, my … Continue reading Who You Are: A Message to All Women (and Men, Too)
Word-filled Wednesdays: Who’s Your Number 1?
My husband celebrated his birthday yesterday, so on Monday, after the kids' lessons, I had them make birthday cards for their Papa. Tim asked me to draw a picture of him and his Papa hugging, so I did my best to do so. He then proceeded to decorate his card and write his note for … Continue reading Word-filled Wednesdays: Who’s Your Number 1?
He Sees You…
It has been a long, tiring week — mostly because I've been dealing with an extra-clingy baby, a four-year-old who's suddenly waking up in the middle of the night, and an almost six-year-old who sometimes is as hard-headed as his mama. Although I love my kids (oh.so.very.much), I would find myself wondering at times, "Can … Continue reading He Sees You…
Watch The Feast at PICC LIVE!
We've been attending The Feast off and on for some time now, and it is always an inspiring event for all of us. I am amazed sometimes because even Tim likes listening to Kuya/Bro. Bo speak. Sometimes though, we can't attend because of one reason or another. Like today. It's a good thing there's live streaming! … Continue reading Watch The Feast at PICC LIVE!
Word-filled Wednesdays: Stop Asking Why and Start Saying, “Thank You, God”
I've learned that God does absolutely everything for a reason... and you have to basically lay it all down and let God take care of it. Because He will... whether you see it or whether you don't. You will eventually be so surprised and think, "Thank You, God!" Before you have this problem, He already … Continue reading Word-filled Wednesdays: Stop Asking Why and Start Saying, “Thank You, God”
Word-filled Wednesdays: When The Going Gets Tough (and a “Plug” for Chinie!)
It's been a tough week for me... well, it's been more than a few tough weeks for me since I gave birth. (Not that I'm complaining, OK?) Ever since Anne got sick (and has now been recovering) I haven't had much sleep at night. And now that I'm officially off maternity leave, I've been sleeping even less … Continue reading Word-filled Wednesdays: When The Going Gets Tough (and a “Plug” for Chinie!)
Amazing Grace Lasts More than 50 Days (And Why I’m Praising God for More Dirty Diapers and Sorer Arms)
I'm back! Warning: Long post ahead, with many long-running thoughts (lots of them in parentheses), plus lots of un-blogworthy photos taken with my phone. Just giving you a heads up! 😉 It's been exactly ONE whole month since I last updated this blog, though I've been writing regularly over at Philstar.com about some of the things … Continue reading Amazing Grace Lasts More than 50 Days (And Why I’m Praising God for More Dirty Diapers and Sorer Arms)
Word-filled Wednesdays: Humility and the Mercy of God
Today's Word-filled Wednesdays post is all about humility. If you're new to this blog, or see my posts on Facebook and Twitter, you may think I've "got it all together" — by being able to manage working at home three days a week, being at the office two days (minimum) a week, homeschooling, blogging, writing … Continue reading Word-filled Wednesdays: Humility and the Mercy of God
