Happy with Cousins

Since we are mostly away from our homecountries ( Philippines and Malaysia), kids always get excited to visit families back home. Their trip's highlight would always be spending time with their cousins. So, last week, they had the time of their lives playing with their cousins. Whenever we were out to do our errands or process some documents, they would both be begging to go back home so they could play with their cousins. 

Here's a photo of how they were enjoying their time in Malaysia.

What's Your Favorite Song?

With Christian contemporary music as our background music everyday, my kids have learn to appreciate music and therefore they also have their own favorites. I noticed that my daughter's favorites are mostly from female singers while my son's favorites are more on the 'rock' side. My daughter loves Brit Nicole's songs while my son likes the Newsboys.

As for me, my favorite songs change from time to time, depending on my mood. But mostly I like songs that somehow tells a story like Tenth Avenue North's 'Slip on By'. 

The New 'Bookworm'

A few months ago, my son disliked reading. Whenever it's his 'reading time' he will really try to escape and play with his toys instead. But as he learned to read faster, I noticed a few changes. He has began to pick books on his own and read them for a few minutes. Then, this has become more frequent and the amount of time he spends reading on his own has become longer. Of course, I'm so happy with this new development and lately he has announced to the family that he has become 'a bookworm'. So ladies and gentlemen, let's officially welcome Lyle as the new 'bookworm' in the family! ;)

It Has Been Awhile

It has been almost a month since my last post. I haven't really been updating my blogs regularly as I'm quite busy with homeschooling and other stuff. But I'll try harder in the next months to take care of my blogs and also my online work. They have truly been a source of blessings for me. So after I check on cupmounts here I will spend a bit of more time updating my blogs and maybe read my friends' blogs too! :)
