An open letter to my Teenager!

To start off

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts from mommies and daddies sa facebook about how lucky and proud they are of their children’s achievements. Trending ang mga top 10 students, student awardees at pinaka sa lahat ang mga Report cards! Last week I went to Ate Kyla’s School to get her report card. Advanced mag isip masyado si Ate kaya bago pa ko pumunta sa school sinabi nya na sakin na may isa syang subject na may mababang grade. She got a 75 in Science that made her report card look a little not so nice but for me okay lang yun as long as she will find ways to be better in her succeeding grading periods. Sana mabasa nya tong letter ko and the only way I'll know is if mashare nya tong post ko! Haha! 

:)

Dear Ate,

   Una sa lahat I wanna Thank you for doing your Best at school. I know there are days I don't get to ask you How's School or How are you doing, Sorry Anak hindi sa wala akong pakialam pero minsan I am just to busy trying to make things better for you, for Niela and for kael and for our whole family. I am busy trying to make sure that you all will have a better future.   

  I want you to know that I wasn't mad when I saw your card, siguro kasi sinabi mo na kagad sakin bago ko pa mareceive yung card mo (Good Job niready mo ko :) LOL). I was a bit sad but I am fine anak. Your report card doesn't define you as a person but only defines your learning in a specific amount of time. You can always be better, you still have 3 more gradings to be better. I know that you are a very intelligent girl, syempre mana ka kay Nini haha! Alam kong kayang kaya mong mas maging magaling. Please always remember that attitude is more important than a high average in your report card. A good heart is better than a good report card! 

  Lagi kaming proud ni didi sa lahat ng achievements mo, mula nuon (nuong six months ka palang tas narinig mo kong kumakanta tas pag kakanta ako sasabay ka din ng nasa tono) until now. Your grade in science does'nt make you less of a person but it should make you realize na dapat lahat ng bagay pinaghihirapan. Kung sa english or math ka nagkaron ng lower grade baka nagalit ako kasi we both love those subjects pero hindi ko sinasabing ok lang na forever na mababa ka sa science but please let me know if you need help kasi andito lang ako lagi anak I am willing to do anything and everything for you.

  In times na feeling mo we dont love you na kasi may 2 pang babies please think again kasi kahit kailan hinding hindi mababawasan yung love namin sayo ni didi kahit maging 10 pa kayong magkakapatid! hahaha! Char lang anak! 

  Please always remember that no matter what grades you have mataas mas or mababa we will always love you and we will always be proud of you! I just hope that this grade will challenge you to be at your best this time. Lagi lang kaming nandito ni didi to guide you kahit madalas nasisigawan kita when I'm tired and stressed at nasasabunutan pag sobrang bingi mo na yung tipong 10x na ako nag utos pero hindi ka pa din sumusunod. I'm only one chat or call or text away akhit tulog ako pag may kailangan ka you can always wake me up kasi I have all the time in the world para sa inyo. Oh hanggang dito muna Anak wag ka na umiyak, haha LOVEYOU BABY!!!

                                                                                                                              Love lots
                                                                                                                                  Nini :) 
        

  Kayo mommies nareceive nyo na din ba report cards ng kids nyo? How was it? How did you react if they got lower grades than usual. You can share your thoughts sa comment box! 

Thanks for reading! Happy Rainy Monday po!

Kyla's 7th Birthday Party! Barbie Fashionista Theme (#TBT)

This post was long overdue, well this is the main reason why I created this blog.  (it was for ate kyla’s 7^th birthday party)

I was searching and searching for the best suppliers to have for Ate kyla’s 7^th birthday party. It took me almost 9 months to 1 year to plan for her big day and I can proudly say that it was all great! I’ve received a lot of good feedback about her party and how everyone went home with a smile. It felt so amazing because people were talking about her party even after the day itself.

Nakakatuwa lang kasi worth it lahat ng pagod at gastos, Masaya ang celebrant Masaya ang parents at Masaya ang mga bisita, there is nothing more I could ask for.

Let me begin with the invitation.

It was a 3d exploding box invitation, everyone was amazed on how it was made at ang ganda ganda daw. I make it sure na sa invitation palang people will think that the party is going to be great! Para they have something to look forward to.  

(CAUTION: PHOTO OVERLOAD)

do you agree that the invites look great?



do you agree that the invites look great?

We set the time earlier talaga I put in the invites 01:30 pm para waiting time ang 1 hour for the guest.
We had

* 7 roses
* 7 barbies
* 7 thousands
* 7 balloons
* 7 fashionista items
* 7 gifts
* 7 cakes

Ang arte noh? ang daming gusto ni nini! :)






family picture but I did not look good in this photo parang ang itim ng fes ko :( but ate looks great so I am ok.

   I won't say much na the pictures will tell!

this was the stage decor with kyla's 8x10 ft tarp.

just like debuts we has 7 roses and didi was one of them - kaso naman look oh natakpan na mukha ni kyla ang laki kasi ng boquet ni didi hahaha

This was "The Place" (A free venue for everyone residing in mandaluyong, this is very spacious and it has its own chairs and tables and Iwata fans yung malalaki to make sure that the place will stay fresh kahit marami nang tao. There is also an airconditioned room that can be used by the birthday's celebrants family so they can keep there valuables safe. It is good din na merong room so kyla was able to hide for her big entrance once called in. :)) It was so great na libre ang venue namin less expense din kasi. Thank you Mayor Benhur Abalos! :)


This was how our venue looked like :)
