I made this letter 2 years ago, posted on my Facebook and now sharing here on my blog :-):-):-) *revised some parts though.
To my sweetheart RAian,
You have taught me more about the meaning of life. You have challenged me in ways I thought would undo me but instead it has made me a better human being and I am eternally indebted to u for that. You fill my life with meaning and purpose and even on my worst days, when I feel helpless to help you through the pain and tears and the discomfort of trying to fit into this imperfect world, you still manage to love me. You will climb up into my lap, flash ur amazing grin(tititita-brown) and for a moment we are one again and i know that I AM ENOUGH. (Isang patak na luha.hehe)
I wish so many things for you baby, above all of course, health. Secondly, is continued happiness. The kind of happiness that comes from an unlimited supply of yellow cars, millions of (milk) boxes along your path, and enough batt for your gadgets to last you a lifetime. (The last-mentioned not anymore, kase binato mo yung natitira... sira na. Huhu)
I had so much wisdom to impart on you, Raian. So many life lessons to pass down and I couldn't wait to get started. But you, you had other plans.
The more I got to know you, the more I realized how little about life I actually knew, and in the end it is you who has taught me patience,unconditional love, forgivenes, joy and acceptance.
It is YOU who is filled with wisdom. The kind of wisdom that cannot be gathered from books. It is a wisdom of a boy who finds pleasure in the simple things, things that I may have otherwise overlooked had you not been around to show them to me these last 7 yrs.
Thank u for making my life whole, anak. (Literally crying a river here)
Happy 7th bday pogi! We love you so much to infinity and beyond!!!

The City government of Ozamiz thru the Public Employment Service Office (PESO), has launched a job fair for the whole of Ozamiz last August 26, 2016 held at the Cotta Fort.
Participated by a number of businesses and companies such as: Toyota Cagayan Ozamiz, CITI Hardware Ozamiz, Palawan Pawnshop Inc, Vicente T. Lao Construction, Robinsons Supermarket and San Miguel Corp to name a few, the job fair was geared to get local workers be engaged and lessen the migration of possible workforce to other locations thus creating a stronger and developing working place in the area.
Based on the number of participants and a report given after the fair, the LGU of Ozamiz is concerned with that percentage considered not part of the work force. At present, they will look into it and create programs that will make the people in the area workforce worthy. The City Government aims to build the place worthy of investors, with local manpower to back-up the needs of these businesses. This is the direction of Ozamiz.
This job fair is just the start of Ozamiz development as a work worthy place, not just of its people but also a place to do business.
For other job fair schedules, please contact Judith R. Halasan at the PESO office: 088- 564-4332.

ctto

Having picky eaters at home is a real struggle. If you have kids around 3-7 yrs old it could be challenging to get them to eat. Kids around this age have short attention span. They often only like to eat what they've had before, and although you would like to give them only what they want, you also want to look after their health. That's why we make sure that we have food supplement as one of the staples at home to cover the nutrients my kids are lacking.
CTTO
My eldest is already a teen so he is picky no more. I still have 2 kids: 7yr old son with special needs and a 5yr old daughter, their daily food mostly are processed. They are picky eaters. Makes us (Mr. MITD and I) worried. So, to ease our fear , we consulted our pediatrician then. She recommended Nutri10 Plus.
My kids been taking Nutri10 for years now I can say that they are growing up bibo and healthy. Which makes us confident that the vitamins work on them. They are "hiyang" . As I remember, last year, we havent visited our pedia which only means one thing; they never got sick. They have strong immune system. Yay!
To give you proof that they are bibo and healthy... watch these videos #proudmomhere

Recently, I have posted this photo on Instagram with the caption "Dizz iz it... virgin hair no more!" Why? Salons refer "virgin hair" to hair that has not been altered by perms, dyes, bleaches or not chemically treated one way or another.
It's not that Ive not visited a salon since birth (haha) because I'm a "suki" (I used to frequent salons) until meningioma happened to me. If you have read The Story of My Life (Click here) you would know that my hair was shaved prior craniotomy in 2013.
Until I decided to have a change. Yes. #ChangeIsComing . I desire for a new look. naks! Not that I don't like my hair ha? I super love my uber black and thick, wavy tresses. But it bothers me to see my "wisdom highlights" (grey hair) underneath my bushy locks. Oops! For those who are concerned, this is with my nuerosurgeon's consent of course, a year ago pa.
I was one of the chosen few to get an invite from Status Hair Salon Cavite via Ms. Aisa (@paxieness) And so I went with my blogger friends to check on their newly opened and first in the south salon in City Mall, Imus. The mall is new that's why some establishments are not operational yet.
Everytime I go to salon, I know exactly what treatment or service I would like to avail. Im very particular especially with my hair. I even showed them a picture of the hair color I like. But due to time constraint and what I want is "mabusisi" (time consuming and so many process) the Senior Stylist, Mr. Jin advised me that we won't be able to achieve my desired color but assured me that he will try his best. Having known to being customer oriented and a trusted salon, I gave in. I just trust them but still hoping and praying it will come out fine.
After almost four hours... tadaaa!!! How do you find it, sweeties?!
My Life isn't perfect but my hair can be Ć
Overall, Im amazed, satisfied and one happy customer. People like him deserves a pat on the back and of course a tip! Yes, I give tip when it is due. If I'm not satisfied I won't. Hehe.
Haistylists bring out the beauty in you,agree? Meet the Senior Stylist of Status Hair Salon Cavite, the one responsible for my rockin' Ash Blonde hair, Mr. Jin.
Who knows I might go edgy and bold next time...how about red? Teal green? Yellow! Rainbow kaya? Hehe. Why not? I can do all that without putting hole in my pocket because Status Hair Salon Cavite got a whole year discounted promo in any hair colors and treatments.
This chain of beauty salons is owned and operated back in 2011 by sisters/business partners Robina and Roseann Ko, and in 2014, awarded as Best Choice High-End Beauty Care and Treatment Salon [Best Choice Award]. This first franchised branch in the south is operated by friends – Ms Erika Tan and Ms Jizlynn Co.
Since Im happy with the outcome... and you know me when I'm happy, I share my blessings Ć

Do you agree in the saying that Mothers know best? I definitely do! Not just because I'm a mom, but I've tested and proven it many times as a daughter, sister and friend ĆĆĆ
When you allow your intuition to develop, you become the world's foremost authority on your child. The more you practice listening to and caring for your child, the more intuitive you'll become.
But sometimes, even mothers need help when it comes to making the right decisions for their child, especially when it comes to their health. It is normal for moms to seek child care advice and parenting tips from experts as well as from family and friends with parental experience. However, there will be instances when they would end up more confused and less confident to make a decision after hearing varying recommendations or contradicting views.
Last July 28, 2016 Nido® 3+ launched #CheckTheLabel at Todd English Food Hall in SM Aura Premier, it is an educational campaign to encourage mothers to read and have a better understanding of food labels, so they can make smarter and healthier choices for their child. By checking the label, moms can verify nutritional claims, compare brands, and choose which one offers the best value for money.
Here's how to read food labels
when checking food labels, take a look at the ingredients which are listed in the order of highest to lowest quantity. Watch out for health-sensitive ingredients such as sugar, salt, saturated fat, and sodium. When it comes to these, moderation is always key to better prevent the risk of obesity, diabetes, and other lifestyle-related diseases.
Next, review the nutritional facts. It is important to go through each one to determine whether or not a particular food product meets the daily nutritional requirements of children, especially during their crucial growing-up years. Knowing the nutritional content can determine if a child is eating a healthy, balanced diet.
Another good reason to check the label is to identify nutrients that are unique to a brand. Not all food product's like milk are created the same, so choose the one that provides for your child's needs, and more.
Patricia Turcuato, Lead Consumer Marketing Manager for NIDO Growing Up Milk (GUM), formally launched the #CheckTheLabel campaign and talked about the nutrients found in NIDO® 3+
The newest endorser of NIDO® 3+ Sarah Lahbati with the host Delamar Arias, answered questions regarding the struggles she faced as a first-time mom and how checking the label of her options helped her make smarter and healthier choices for Zion. By precisely checking the label, Sarah Lahbati is assured that she made the right choice with NIDO® 3+.

Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world - Nelson Mandela
I love to see students succeed and use education as a way of achieving their dreams. But really disheartens me hearing stories about children who wanted to go to school and eager to learn but poverty hampers them.
Happy to know that there's a group who helps these children. Im priviledged to attend Couple's for Christ initiative for ANCOP (Answering the cry of the poor) conference themed Global Walk 2016 : Beyond your Walk, Their dreams.
We are used to see and hear about Fun Runs for fitness or to achieve a personal goal. Others do so in order to push their advocacies, like taking care of the environment, or the restoration of a cultural or historical heritage, or sending children to school.
But not everybody can run a race to help promote advocacy, like me because of my condition. Consequently, the birth of the ANCOP Walk. Twelve years ago, ANCOP Canada thought of organizing an event where people of all ages and from all walks of life can participate in raising funds for education and likewise create an awareness about ANCOP. ANCOP is Couple's for Christ's work with the poor initiative.
And so, on August 21, 2011, the ANCOP GLOBAL WALK was born, with the tag line "I will walk for a scholar. Walk with me!" This initial effort, which happened on the death anniversary of the late Benigno Aquino Jr., paved the way for a new way of heroism -- that of taking a step to change the future of the ANCOP scholars. For Metro Manila alone, an estimated 35,000 walkers trooped to the SM MAll of Asia grounds at dawn for that historic walk.
On August 14, 2016 the ANCOP Global Walk returns to the SM MOA, hoping to triple that initial number by targeting 100,000 walkers who will send 2,000 scholars to school. Men, women and children of all shapes and sizes can join the ANCOP Global Walk. And like in the past AGWs, pet dogs have a regular fare as well. Believe it or not, their humans register their family pets too!
The ANCOP Global Walk will be held in Metro Manila at 4am of August 14, 2016 at the SM Mall of Asia grounds, Pasay City.
Registration fee is P300. Simultaneous walks in major cities in the Philippines, the USA, Canada, and Australia, among others, will also happen on August 14.

Some women think that fitness only involves rigorous gym routines and they'll only lose weight if they feel that their muscles are sore. That is untrue. There are many ways of staying fit and no matter what your routine is, it's better if you put music in it.

"Preparing healthy meals start from grocery shopping. Choose food that is real and fresh but just as satisfying. It should give you energy throughout the day", she said.
Chef Len's TIP: Choose easy to prepare recipes so you don't get discouraged halfway through and opt for fast food.
