Smart Parenting Meet and Greet

Last December, I got to attend the Smart Parenting Meet and Greet event. It’s a small gathering of Smart Parenting moms together with the people behind SP. The event was held at Richmonde Hotel in Eastwood and attended by 30+ moms who are all avid SP readers.

Mia Fausto-Cruz, Editor-in-chief of SP magazine, welcomed the mommies. Relationship Coach, Ms. Aileen Santos shared with us a study done by Marau Emoto to water and the crystals formed on its frozen states. His expriments involved using good and bad words on the water. Some he labelled ‘You make me sick, I will kill you’ and the result was fascinating:

‘You make me sick, I will kill you’ ‘Thank you’

Ms Aileen Santos demonstrated ow powerful words are and how it affects our kids.

It was a very informative meet and greet event.. giving us a head’s up on how we should handle our kids. Smart Parenting sure knows how to help us in being a smart moms 🙂

Holiday Games That We Played

Our Christmas celebration was so much fun and one of the reasons why was the games that the kids played. Overall the kids played five games together with the big boys (my husband, my brother in law and my youngest brother). The first game they played was Stop Dance and the toddlers join in the fun. Sati, Chico and Dylan had so much fun dancing to the music but of course they do not know they have to stop when the music stops.

Then the boys played Pinoy Henyo with the older ones. My brother who was playing online bingo night had to stop what he was doing. Since Pinoy Henyo is a game where the players are paired with each other, the kids need their partners. Kayil was paired with my brother in law, Mico with my brother and Kieth with my husband.

The first round of the game, it was the kids who had to guess what is written on the paper on their forehead. To those who have no idea how this game is played, it is a game of logic. A word is placed in a piece of paper and put on the forehead of the other player. He will then ask his partner questions (that can only be answerable by yes, no or maybe) that in the end will guide him in guessing what the word is. It is deductive reasoning in the works.

The last game two games they played were Paper Dance and longest Ahh game. We also joined in the fun and our mom beat us in the longest Ahh game.

Cheers to 2012!

I want to make this post as meaningful as possible.. this would be my first post for 20112! yay! but you know may hangover pa ako! I still want to sleep until 10 AM, wake up with food waiting on the table..I enjoyed the vacation so much that I don’t want to go back online again.. party here and there, movies here and there… it was so much FUN!

So I’ll just make this post super short.. I can’t use up much energy today.. I have so many pending blog posts!

2011 has been so nice to me.. OK not so nice in terms of financials but in terms of self fulfillment and contentment.. I had never been contented with my life this much.. I am just happy. Happy with my family.. career.. and of course with friends..

Though March 2011 has been very emotional to us (hubby’s nephew died), slowly, we’re moving on..

The last few months of the year was great…and Christmas was awesome.. my family is compete.. New Year celebration was nice too (though I was not able to enjoy CDO Holiday Ham.. naubusan kame!)

I hope this week, as the Holiday dust settles, I’d be able to post all those that I needed to publish.. OK that would be my NYR.. blog like I never used to be.. uhmm and how am I gonna do that? hehehe
