Everything About Mom

Here's some ideas that you can make to your MOM for mother's day this coming Sunday. I hope it will help.


Have everyone spend some time writing in their journals about Mom. Use the following list as prompts and record as many details as possible about the memory or experience.

1. What is your funniest memory of Mom?
2. What lesson that she taught you stands out?
3. What is your favorite characteristic or personality trait about Mom?
4. What do you see in yourself that came from her, physically or in your personality?
5. List as many things as possible that she has done for you.

Use what you wrote to make your own personal card to give to Mom on Mother's Day, or find and cut out images of from magazines and make a collage illustrating the memories.

When Did Your Journey Begin????

When was the first time you said to yourself: wow, I'm a mom? Was it the first time you held your baby? Or soothed away her tears? Maybe it was when you realized how much better your home office looks as a nursery.

It's different for every woman and can happen at any time, but every mother has a moment when, all of a sudden, it hits you and you truly understand what it feels like to be a mom.

When was your moment? When, all of a sudden, everything felt different. And you looked at the world with a brand new life, as a completely different person – through the eyes of a mother.

It might have been when you felt the first kick, or maybe it was months after bringing her home. It's different for every woman.....

Where great joy is accompanied by immense responsibility, and what you now look for in a purse is its ability to double as a diaper bag.


THE GATEWAY ARCH




















Last Monday, Cinco de Mayo, I had a chance to pay a visit to the Arch @ St.Louis before my fingerprinting. It was fun and worth it since that was my first time to see the place I've been here for four years but I decided to wait my two girls to be born here on earth before I will visit the arch because I wanted them to be there also eventhough they might don't know how to appreciate it but in later time they will. All I can say, it's such a beautiful place and fantastic architecture. I also love that structure and the view from up there imagine 630 feet and 190 m, so beautiful and that's how God's creations looks from above; I just hope everybody would see it from there and be awed how much God loves us that He has provided us these things and yet we disregarded them and are so careless about them that they just get destroyed and wasted--how ungrateful we can be! We spent there for two hours since we have to leave for my fingerprinting at 1:00 p.m. I was just so thankful on that day it was really beautiful and we had a great time together as a family that is one of the things that we enjoyed together. Eventhough that day day we spent $54 but worth it you know if we want pleasure in life we have to spend money but the important thing is the experience!

Then, on that day also after my fingerprinting we were able to visit at Jay International Food Store we bought lots of Filipino foods and vegetables for at least three months food supply consumption so I am very much happy about it too. Finally, I had fish and vegetables and of course my husband's favorite was the Chippy can't miss that but sad to say there's no red chippy's that our favorite. And also I bough a dozen of ripe and sweet mangoes for $11.95. So it was all worth it and a beautiful day for us. Thank God for the many many countless blessings each day that he pours in our family and I appreciate it every seconds, minutes and hours! Until next time...Here's some pictures to look that we took during our visits to the ARCH please enjoy!
