Mico’s Birthday

March, aside from our wedding anniversary, means Mico’s birthday. As early as February, I already started preparing for his birthday. So even if I am busy reading massage therapy program online, I still took time to plan for his birthday. I told him no more Ben10 or Sponge bob themed party so he settled for Cars instead (his old time favorite movie). My sister who was i Singapore brought a few Cars vehicles so we can use as a topper on his cake.

For the food, we’ll be settling for simple dishes and since we will be spending a little more on his cake, this year we won’t be spending on lootbags.

How To Discipline 7 Year Olds

Posted: 05 Mar 2011 PST
Discipline. That is the hardest thing to do for a parent. It’s hard to know what is right and what is wrong for our kids.. and how it will affect their lives. Now that I have a 7 year old, I am faced with this dilemma.

My 7 year old boy is very responsible, he’s doing good in school and he is a good kuya too.. but there are times that he act up. He would not listen to me and he liked teasing his older brothers. One of the reason why he’s always grounded. And he cries so loud (which makes it harder for me). I wish he was the same sweet boy that listens to my every word. Or that he knew how to read safety signs on our walls. I mean, he does know how to read but he seems to ignore it, like when I want him to keep quiet, I would point on the quiet sign and he wouldn’t stop.

I’d be reading a few books in the coming days and will try to learn more about 7 year olds. I better be prepared.. there are 3 more kids waiting to be 7 year olds!

The Pointed Pencil

My second son went home proud about his writing. I was amazed by his handwriting, even asked him if his teacher wrote it. It was nice and one would think it was written by a higher grade student not a kinder. Later I would ask him to write acne treatments that really work and will take a photo of his handwriting. He told me that the reason why his writing was better that day is his pencil. I sharpened it earlier. He said it was easier to write if the pencil is pointed. That reminds me to sharpen his pencil every morning 🙂
