PLANNING A WATER PARK BIRTHDAY PARTY
WHERE WILL WE GO? Unlike our other birthday parties, we planned Cydney’s 7th birthday only 2wks prior. If you have read my previous blogs, I am a working mom and this month just happened to be busy-er travels for me. In all honesty, planning a waterpark birthday party was easy-piecy. 1st question, do we want […]
FOREVER AND EVER
I’ve always believe that my mom and I have an exceptional relationship. Probably because we’ve driven miles together to explore Michigan’s shopping malls (Even in the midst of winter storms), oriental stores, and restaurants (I’ve been introduced to from dating Matthew). OR it could also be because we’ve learned mathematics together at 4:00am when she bravely […]

My daughter is the first child and grandchild of my family (Both Matthew’s and my side). That being said, there’s no other children I can compare her progress to. What I mean by that is when should she be learning all her numbers, letters, shapes and colors? Cydney identified her shapes and numbers at 2yrs […]
WHAT IF I STAYED HOME
I can sincerely say that my VP at work is pretty awesome! She’s the type of leader that challenges me when necessary, gives everyone clear and efficient directions, and for the first time in my career she’s the only leader that has respected my time off from work. As you may know, I recently had an […]
EXTRA EASTER BLESSINGS
Easter is a time to remember our Risen King. If you’re like my family, after going to church we celebrate Easter with Grandpa, grandma, Lolo, Lola, all the aunts, all the uncles and every child in the family that may or may not be their cousins. We eat soooo much food (Different ethnic foods), different kinds […]
PLANNING FOR BIRTHDAYS
Most people think that I spend a lot of money on parties, my motto has always been “Go big or go home! ” But in reality, I spent less than $200 on my daughter’s Marie Antoinette 3rd birthday party. Here’s some of my secrets. PLAN AHEAD OF TIME – When your children are younger, they tend […]
