October Get Together


After many months of planning and collaboration with other groups, the much awaited get together party with the sweetest and lovely trio of Jai, Alec and Joj was held last Sunday.  Thank God that their schedules weren’t on our GTG schedule and all is well that afternoon.  I was so stressed out but it’s all worth it.  I can see the smile and laughter and they were jiving in with the crowd.  Their family was so supportive and even join the games.  I couldn’t ask for more with the group I have today.  They’re the best, despite of the fact that some of them are miles away from us, you can feel with the way they supported us that they are just beside us, tapping our shoulders and telling us we can do this.  And we did and I’m so grateful for our group.  Different folks and strokes and different point of views but we are one.  






We end our happy night having a videoke sing a-long near the twins place.  And we went home all tired but happy.

Keeping The Faith Alive


There are so many things that happened these past few days.   I think this is one of the difficult times I have to face.  But no, I can still hold on and I need to be strong and I have to keep holding on to my faith.  I need to with what I am before, strong-willed, fighting and positive.   Well last week, my hubby was still having pains in his right knee and he was sick for a week due to flu, cough and colds.  Then Nathan had a fever for 2 days and though he get past over it, he has now cough and he don’t want to eat anything except his milk and I’m having a hard time convincing him to take his “vitamins” which turns out to be his medicine.


A close friend of mine sent us a group message yesterday informing us that one of our friend’s hubby died from liver disease and it was all sudden.  Then I realized, he’s still in his 40’s and so young to leave his family.  But then, this is what you call life.  You have to learn living with it to the fullest because you will never know what will happen next.  I was suppose to see my friend on a get together by the end of this month but now I have to see her not because of that but because she needed us and to keep her strong, It was one of the difficult thing to do.  And I hope she will hold on to her faith, too. 


I’m having a cough too, and my body seems giving up and I want to lie down to bed.  But there are so many things to do this weekend.  I need to step up.  And I hope next week will be my week.

Gummy Nutrition

I have seen my sisters having a hard time in giving their children their everyday vitamins.  I often help them to do that and resorted to all kinds of distractions just to take their focus away from the vitamins.  My younger sister even cried one time and she don’t know why her son doesn’t want any of it even with a strong taste and smell of fruity flavour.  I was wondering that too and I told them I don’t want that to happen to Nathan so I think of some other ways to give them the nutrition they need without too much of the tug of war between us. 
 
My best friend recommended Smarty Pant's gummy vitamins that her parents and her daughter are taking for quite some time now.  She said it was given to her by her college friend and she immediately tried it.  I guess this is the best solution we could have and my parents could benefit with it also.  I need to tell it my sisters and they would be ecstatic to know that she can continue giving her son his vitamins without “fighting” with each other.  I believe my son will think that he’s eating his favourite candy.
