My Photography Buddy
On my picture taking with tridax, I got my buddy.
After taking photos, he insists to see it in the display and just say…"GANDAAAAAAH…fower” (Beautiful flowers) with a voice of amusement. He is patient and
cooperative too. When I say, "Stay there and we will took photos of the
tiny butterfly", he will just stand in silence behind.
As a reward, I joined him walking and running around
the subdivision and took some snacks when we get back home.

Parenting Tips on Imposing Penalties to Kids
All parents encountered misbehaving kids resulting to some penalties. Most of the time enforcing the consequences resulted to failure causing them to continue misbehaving. Here are three basic tips to successfully impose consequences to kids.
Be realistic.
Most of us threaten kids to make them behave. However it should be kept in mind that we need to be realistic in giving threat so it will be feasible to enforce when needed. Giving threats without enforcing it will make them look at you as a good talker rather than a doer. If this happens, you will be in big trouble.

Another Goodbye
Last time, I said goodbye to my Kitchen Adventures because I created a separate blog for it. Now, on my Captured Moments.

No More Plastics in Bulacan
On my way to work, I noticed a new sign
board regarding the banning of plastics and styrofoam in the whole province of
Bulacan. One funny thing, the sign board was placed in front of a styrofoam-manufacturing
company. Are they going to close the said factory? I hope not because there are
many employees that will be affected.

Matt immediate rushed inside the fence
to ride with the remote controlled car. He was so happy thinking he is the

the car and bring it home.

Little Angel's Heart Needs Help
When we knew that we
are having Matt in our life, we are really excited when he will go out and meet
the outside world. As first time father, I was really excited to meet him every
month during check-ups. Seeing him thru ultrasound makes me happy and excited.
One thing that we wished is for him to be normal and healthy. When I read Mye's post about Alphonse's condition, my heart was really touched and without a second thought, I repost her story hoping that in this way, I can help.

Kids need
self-confidence to success in many aspects. Self-confidence can be gained from
falling down and getting back on the track again, expecting mistakes and making
necessary corrections, solving problems by their own rather than expecting
someone to fix it. But how are we going to boost their self-confidence? Here
are some tips.

Stay Connected 24/7
Communication is one of the best tools to
stay connected with our love ones. As a
full time employee, I want to stay connected at home and monitor my son’s
activity either thru phone or internet. However, there are times that signals
fluctuate and I got hard time to contact home especially during bad weather. Good thing that with the latest innovation in
communication equipment, there are already custom multipin
connectors that can withstand severe weather conditions keeping us
connected 24/7. Furthermore, such
connectors are being used by aerospace and defense industries.

New Year’s Eve.

The Tortuous Three
On my last post about Terrible Two, I thought that this is the worst behavior of kids as part of their development but I was wrong, I read an article that their behavior might get worse than getting better. Therefore, we need to know some general behaviors of kids at this age in order to handle this stage of kid's development.

Weight Loss for New Year
After the holidays, most of us gain additional pounds
aside from the one that we want to burn out. I know one of the New Year’s
resolutions that most of us, yes including me, to do is to shed those extra
pounds. Before making any promises that you are going to avoid eating too much,
having healthy diet etc. etc., try to consider these simple behaviors that we
might commit to get rid of that extra baggage.
