She Said, "No!"

By
It wasn’t long ago that my little girl was once a helpless baby that I held in my arms despite the pain after the C-Section and would continuously visit her everyday in the NICU to breastfeed her. It was a sacrifice that I had to go through since she was born with infection and had to stay at NICU for the antibiotic treatment. She was so small and so angelic that made me want to see her everyday.

It was still vivid on my mind the first time she turned to her side exactly 15 months ago. It was like a funny moment when her cheeks was touching the bed and could hardly lie on her back again. I immediately knew that she would be a hyperactive baby.


I kept wondering what’s wrong with my lullaby and breastfeeding that won’t make her stop crying despite the music in the room. Oh she wanted the most vague position ever when she sleeps. That’s why.


When she turned one, it makes me pleased every time I see her twirling her lola like dance that seems like there is nobody observing her. When she eats and places every food on top of her head amuses me with delight. Every time a mobile trader would pass by and yells “baloooot”, she answers as if her screams can be heard.

Time seems to fly so fast that she is now able to walk but still wobbly and exactly knows now what she wants. She shakes her head every time she doesn’t like some thing. From the angelic little girl now she is a temper throwing tantrum baby girl who whines every time. She would stomp her feet and roll over and over like a log inside her playpen. She also feigns to be crying to get my attention.

It was just yesterday that I was trying to play with her by giving her milk and taking it away again and again that she finally said “NO” with conviction. J and I were both shocked that we both guffawed and she was perplexedly staring at us as to why we were both giggling.


After saying “no” she went back to play with her toys. Now my baby girl has grown. And yes, time flies so fast.

Myra Ultimate Dietary Supplement Review

Health is wealth. I have said this countless times to my children and everyone else. Now this pandemic reminds us that we need to take care of ourselves more since we are battling a virus. Aside from exercise, healthy food, and vitamins that we take everyday, we also need to take care of our skin. Even though we are at home most of the time, we must not neglect the protective layer of our body. I learned skin care through my mom who was health conscious too. She would take vitamins and supplements of all sorts and strictly follow a skin care routine day and night. She is my biggest influence when it comes to taking care of myself. I learned that in order for us to have a good glowing skin, it should start from within.  I came across Myra a few years back at a drugstore when I started working and began taking their Vitamin E supplement. Now they Myra Ultimate, a new product that I tried and here are my thoughts. One week of taking it, I noticed a significant change in the glow of my...

Purple Fairy Cosmetics Review x Giveaway

If kilay is life, liptint is life also for me. There was a phase in my life where I'd hoard every new lipstick in the market. But suddenly, I grew tired of it. BOO.   When I purchased my first liptint and knew how versatile it was for a busy mom like me, I had already a thing for liptints. In a span of a year, I bought several local and foreign brands and of course there were mixed emotions about it. There is just something about it that tells me still, they do belong to the same mother but unique in every way.  It is about time for me to throw some of it because I have been using it beyond six months already. Do not get me wrong though, I store my liptints in a cold and dry place (refrigerator) that is why, I could still use it beyond it's shelf life. Now it's time to hunt for a new local brand when suddenly I came across the owner of the brand I have been eyeing to try for the longest time.  Anyway, so much for blabbing here and let's get to the review...
