This update is long overdue lol. So needless to say (since I already mentioned on the title), me, my sis, my mom and my little girl is going to Macau and Hongkong! I am sooo excited!. This will be in December, and gosh I can't wait. Mainly because, I know my little girl will really enjoy this, that's what I am most excited about..

So we finally watched the Mulan play last August 16th. It was huge! It was really great. I am happy that  my little girl's school let them watch theatrical plays like this every single year. It's very educational, letting these children be exposed to the theatrical arts and scenes besides the academics.

Despite the fact that my little cookie missed one whole week of school last week (due to her hospitalization) she still got the highest score in her Science quiz yesterday! And not only that..she got a perfect score in her Spelling too lol. Soooo like her Mom hahahhaha!

I consider giving life to my child as the single most important event in my life. It was a huge decision to make. Not only did I gave up soooo many things a young single person enjoys, but the responsibility that goes with being a parent is in itself, a BIGGIE.

When I gave birth to my only child, my whole life changed. I seen meaning in my everyday life that I never saw before I had her. She brought greatness that I never thought possible. Sure it wasn't easy to play the big role of a Mommy, oftentimes you get frustrated, anxious about so many stuffs..stuffs that weren't taught in school!

But no matter how hard raising a child may seem at times, the essence of being a Mom is too great and powerful I can't even begin to describe. I saw myself doing things that I never thought I am capable of doing. I guess that's what LOVE truly meant, being able to forget one's self and putting another forward.

So if you ask me what is the single most important event in my life, I say it's that life I gave for a tiny little child, 9 years ago..

My daughter found this little website on here thats got tons of nice games for kids to enjoy. I actually enjoyed it myself, t'was a little bonding time for both of us, playing games like that. I don't recommend internet for school age children, the net still isn't the best place to spend an afternoon with for kids, but I recommend this site, since the net will always be a part of our lives now, but with full supervision, I think ur kids will love this site as much as mine did.

My little girl is attending the Math Challenge program. Her school hold this event every year and she joins in every year too. She loves Math lol unlike me. I hate Math as a kid lol I still do until now, but I can live with it hahaha. But then again Math was way different with kids, I don't know how my kid does it, but maybe given the fact that my Mom is a certified public accountant, maybe she got her math brains from her. I can go around computing meds since I am a nurse lol, but to do a Math challenge lol that..I am not capable of. I am proud sooo proud of her.

She still has the cough. And I had to repeat over and over again the importance of taking in more fluids! It's hard enough to teach a patient you're not even related to, but I didn't realized it's even harder to do health teaching on your own child lol.

So anyways, she and I will be going to this play, "Mulan" next month August 18 if i'm not mistaken. I try and make her see plays once every year that her school offers, it's not compulsary, but I think it is very educational for children like her to see one like it. She watched the repertory's Cinderella for last year and The Emperor's New Clothes for the year prior. I just hope she will like Mulan the way she enjoyed the other plays we attended.

I just wanna post this pics of my little girl, and my sis inlaw's niece..

She is busy doing her homework right now, so I thought I should blog a bit. I read the featured question in Xanga, and I just couldn't help reacting. Actually, I can't tell if I am a good parent to my kid than my parents are to me.

For the past 9 yrs. of my life, I have learned that, what matters most to me is my little girl's opinion of me as a Mom. I don't really care what other people's opinions are about me, I don't care about what they think of me, and my ways and means in raising my kid. I am more concerned with and sensitive about what she thinks of me as her Mom. I know I don't always make the best decisions, but one thing is for sure, whatever decision I make, I will never put my little girl's life in danger.

My parents have been the best. I don't think I can compare myself to them, for me they are incomparable. But the things I been through as a single Mom, those are things my parents never experienced. They always had each other's back ever since the day they met. Something I never had. Of course they had their own ups and downs as parents to us their children, but the fact that they got each other, problems are a piece of cake. Totally different from mine world.

I don't think it's about who the best or the better parent is. I think it's more about how parents conquered parenthood and how they performed as parents in their children's eyes.

I just answered this Featured Question, you can answer it too!
