My dear little girl Bianca celebrated her 3rd Birthday today.   She had a simple party here in the house a while ago with few of her classmates and also some of our neighbors’ kids.  Tomorrow, she would have another party in her school.

How fast it could be that it was already 3 years ago when I gave birth to a bouncing baby girl at 7.1lbs.  I gave birth to her at 9:18am.  I recalled everything else that happened that joyous day.  I read again my birthing story here. After just few lines of reading and watching the video again (do check my birthing story), tears fell down my eyes.

I am thankful for the blessings of my kids. They are the most precious to me. Now, I wonder if I have been doing the right thing to become a good mother to them. I may not be perfect but I am doing my very best. I always pray for graciousness that I may be able to teach my kids the values of being a good person. I may sound overacting since they are just so little, but everything else starts from home.

To my dear Bianca, happy happy birthday to you. I wish that you may grow as a very fine girl. Thank you for letting me learn the ropes of being a mom. I would try my best to teach you the proper ways of life. I would do my share in moulding you not just as a good daughter, a good sister but a definite good kind-hearted person.

We love you!

Have you started your christmas shopping already? As for me, I haven’t actually started on gifts but already bought some christmas decors for the house. We have yet to buy a new lantern also to put in our porch. For the gifts, I haven’t finished my list. I am hoping I won’t forget anyone. There’s an upcoming Toy Sale in Megamall starting tomorrow, November 6 and ends by November 8. I would want to check it out tomorrow. It’s an exclusive sale for entry only of BDO card holders and SM Advantage card holders. For November 7 and 8, it would be open for the public. I hope to finish atleast my list for the godsons and daughters by tonight so I can start shopping as well. Good thing, they do accept credit cards. It would really be easy to plan out purchases that way as long as you also pay your full balance every due date!

Photo Birth Announcement Cards

Counting like eight to nine months from now, I am looking forward to receive the Birth Announcements of my two online friends. We are very excited for their pregnancies. Both having it their 2nd child this time. I am so happy to receive the news from them actually as I know they have been planning for it as well already. I am sure they would be as OC as they have been just like their first-born. They would probably have photo birth announcements made as well. I so love receiving birth announcement cards especially from close friends.

I would likely recommend to them to check out the site http://www.cards-411.com/. Cards-411 carries beautiful designs for baby birth announcements. They can really put their baby’s picture in the card and even modify the design or color of it. I’m sure they would also love to note that they can also get free shipping and some free cards if they have promotions.
