Mommy Moments - Christmas

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 14:16:00 +0000

It's been a while since I've written a blog post. My apologies to all of you. I've been very busy for these past months and I didn't put much time and "energy"on this site as I wish I did. Frankly speaking I've been so sluggish and not inspired! But it feel so good to finally sit down and write again. So I would like to say thanks to Chris for the wonderful MM theme this week.....

Mommy Moments theme for this week "Christmas"...

Only two weeks till Christmas and I can't wait for it to come. The Christmas decorations around me, the Christmas songs and all the stuff that reminds me it's Christmas; always bring a happy smile on my face. Those are a few of my favorite things about this season....

Our Christmas tree is up and it looks fabulous to me!

Since the Christmas season is right around the corner, let's talk about "Christmas "

For me the magic of Christmas is the excitement of my children on Christmas Eve, when they see their presents under the Christmas tree and as they open their presents knowing they have got all they have asked for Christmas is absolutely priceless....

These presents are from Santa two years ago....

Christmas is a wonderful time in our house. My eldest daughter is 10 and my youngest is 8 years old but still believes in Santa, even though many of their friends have stopped believing about Santa Claus. I'm not sure for how long they will continue to believe it, but it is absolutely precious to see them get excited about Santa Claus .
This year they asked for an AKB48 stuff for their collection on Christmas. This is a hot ticket item for girls who loves AKB48 girl group and I wasn't having any luck finding it in the stores. My youngest daughter told me that she would ask Santa for it.... Good luck to me and H! Whew :)

My children get gifts from Santa still....

We wrap the presents from Santa each in a different theme for the kids. This year my kids has pink heart gift wrap paper.

May the season brings you new joy and the new year brings you hope, good health and prosperity.... Advance Merry Christmas to all.....!

"ITS 28TH OF JULY 2010, FIRST TIME IM DOING THIS. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY. UM, MAYBE ONE DAY YOU'LL WATCH THIS. JUST TO REMEMBER HOW HORRIBLE OF A DAY IT IS. YOURE IN SINGAPORE, YOU'VE BEEN CRYING ALL EVENING BECAUSE TOMORROW MORNING, YOU AND RHIAN WILL GO TO THE HOSPITAL HERE AND GET RID OUR BABY. IT DOESN'T MATTER NAMAN WHAT I THINK ABOUT IT BECAUSE THIS WAS HER CHOICE. I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG YOU'LL KEEP THIS AS A SOUVENIR, BUT THIS IS THE TEST. (WHISPER) THIS IS WRONG. THIS IS THE HARDEST THING (CRYING) THIS IS THE HARDEST THING YOU'VE GONE THROUGH BEFORE AND YOU'VE GONE THROUGH SO MUCH. AND WE HAVE TO BLAME OUR JOBS FOR THIS? THIS INDUSTRY THAT JUDGES YOU FOR THESE THINGS. THIS BUSINESS HAS MADE HER BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE THE LIFE OF OUR OWN CHILD BECAUSE NO ONE WILL FORGIVE HER FOR THIS. THAT THIS JOB WILL RUIN HER, SO WE AGREED THAT WE'D COME HERE AND GET IT DONE. BECAUSE YOU LOVE HER AND YOU JUST WANT HER TO BE OKAY. ITS NOT LIKE RHIAN IS HAVING AN EASY TIME WITH THIS TOO. ITS HARD ON ALL OF US. SHE SAID ONE DAY WE WILL SEE THIS AGAIN. AND MAYBE OUR JOBS WILL BE A LITTLE BIT EASIER AND MORE ACCEPTING ABOUT IT. ONE DAY YOU'LL LOOK AT THIS VIDEO, 20 YEARS FROM NOW, I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF YOU WILL STILL BE TOGETHER AND IT WILL STILL HURT. IT WILL STILL HURT LIKE HELL. (CRYING). YOU'LL BE SORRY FOR THIS YOUR WHOLE LIFE. I'LL BE SORRY FOR THIS MY WHOLE LIFE. IM SORRY FOR THE BAD CHOICE WE ARE ABOUT TO MAKE. ITS HARD FOR BOTH OF US. NOBODY WANTS TO DO THIS. I KNOW OTHER CELEBRITIES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SUCCEED AFTER THIS PROBLEM, IF IT IS EVEN A PROBLEM, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A PROBLEM. BUT YOU KNOW, HER PARENTS ARE TOUGH ON HER. HER STATION, HER CHANNEL, HER MANAGER IS SO TOUGH ON HER THAT IT HAS MADE HER FEEL THAT HAVING THIS BABY, IS JUST NO OTHER OPTION. I KNOW RHIAN IS YOUNG. MAYBE ONE DAY WHEN WE'RE OLDER, WHEN SHE IS OLDER, THAT WE WONT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS. I DON'T BLAME HER. THE PRESSURE ON HER IS SO GREAT. THAT I KNOW SHE FEELS LIKE SHE HAS NO CHOICE. SO THIS IS NOT YOUR FAULT RHIAN. ITS NOT. I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO BE YOU IN HERE, IN THIS SITUATION. ITS JULY 28, 2010 AND IM SITTING INSIDE THE HOTEL. THE RITZ-CALRTON IS SINGAPORE AND WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING ALL NIGHT ABOUT THIS. IM DOING MY BEST TO TRY TO KEEP YOU SAFE. AND ALL THIS FIGHTING IS TAKING A TOLL ON US. I WISH WE COULD HAVE THIS CHILD. I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS. THIS JOB IS SO DIFFICULT. ITS SO DIFFICULT. IM SO SORRY. I'LL BE SORRY FOREVER. AGAIN, ONE DAY YOU'LL WATCH THIS. MAYBE WHEN YOURE AN OLD MAN. YOU'LL REMEMBER HOW DIFFICULT TODAY WAS. AND I HOPE YOU WATCH THIS AND I HOPE BY THAT TIME I'LL BE MARRIED AND I'LL HAVE A FAMILY THAT I CAN TRY TO MAKE IT UP TO. YOURE GOING TO DO SOMETHING REALLY WRONG TODAY. IM SORRY FOR THAT. THIS IS BUSINESS IS SO SO HARD. THIS BUSINESS IS SO HARD ON ITS EMPLOYEES. I GUESS ALL BUSINESSES ARE. I DON'T KNOW. ITS OUR FAULT I KNOW. WE CANT REALLY BLAME OUR JOBS BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE DID IT. BUT UM, I UNDERSTAND."

Congratulation Rio...

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 05:57:00 +0000

Another reason to smile, I went to my daughter school observation day today. I am so happy that her drawing received a recognition! Simple but unique diba, saan ka naman nakakita ng bubbles na iba iba ang kulay kay Rio lang ! Again to my baby, congratulation mama is so proud of you. I love you anak

Happy Mother's Day to all the Extraordinary, Loving and Amazing moms!!

Mommy Moments : White.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 13:25:00 +0000

I'm back here in Mommy Moments. Our theme for this week is WHITE....

2010 Summer Fun activities..

"Hugs and Thanks and Lots of Love...For you MOM.."

Here's my favorite lines from this book.....

♥ If I never had a mother like you, who cared enough to set me straight when I needed it...I wouldn't be the person I am today.

♥ Every day, you looked after us, worried about us, fed us, and loved us without expecting anything in return. You see, MOM, I know now and understand that you actually gave me two lives: My OWN and YOURS!!!

Forever missing you Mom... I love you!

Join us here in Mommy Moments. Have a wonderful weekend.....

8.9 magnitude earthquake the most terrifying experience of my life...

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Tue, 15 Mar 2011 11:23:00 +0000

Pray for Japan

Quick Post!!! A shocking 8.9 magnitude earthquake rocked the east cost of Japan last Friday March 11, 2011.... I guess one of the largest earthquake ever recorded in Japan which triggered a huge tsunami, has killed hundreds of people left thousands are still missing.. I had gotten used to earthquakes during 9 years in Japan but never experience what I felt last Friday. Grabe!! I thought that things were coming to an end parang movie ng 2012 . Geeze! Never felt so terrified throughout my life ngayon lang talaga....

8.9 magnitude earthquake the most terrifying experience of my life...

Hubby and I went out for lunch in Cafe Sion when a shocking earthquake rocked the northeast cost of Japan. Hindi namin pinansin yung unang tremor, we thought it was a normal passing earthquake lang not until a strong aftershock rattled that lasted for about 4 to 5 minutes. Grabe, that was the time na lahat ng nasa loob ng cafe nag panic, so I went out on a street immediately, joining the people from the surrounding buildings. We are there on the sidewalk street, some of us were crying and screaming already. The first thing na pumasok sa isip ko was to pray. After I said my prayers hinanap ko kaagad ang asawa ko nung nag pa-panic na ang lahat yun pala naiwan sa loob ng cafe para tulungan yung ibang staff ng cafe na hawakan yung ibang gamit na maaaring bumagsak.. Grabe nagpaka bayani si hubby!!!So eto na, while we were outside the cafe another strong aftershocks.... Buildings was swaying for about 30~ 40 seconds it was visibly shaking, the staircase from the other building had all just run down loudly ratting against it's side. Gosh! I never thought the panic I felt that time started to run to fear na......
I can't hardly sleep these past few days. We are now experiencing a nuclear catastrophe and more aftershocks every half hour or less, rolling blackouts since yesterday pa and it looks like the news of radiation leak at the Fukushima nuclear plant has sparked panic buying in Tokyo and other cities... Oh my Gosh I hope maging maayos na lahat.... Let's continue to pray for Japan, we need all your prayers!!

You are one in a million!

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Sat, 22 Jan 2011 16:34:00 +0000

Your love is matched by no other. I thank God for his greatest blessing; making you my mom.

~One in a million~

I've been brought up by a wonderful and caring mother, a mother who would wish all the world for her children, a mother who would ensure her kids happiness and safety. That's my mom! She's my biggest fan, my confidante, my best and true friend. She saw sunshine through rain and good in the midst of bad; she was one in a million.
Now that she is gone, I realize I will never come close to being the wonderful person she was, she dedicated her life for us, she didn't ask for anything she was an amazing woman. My mom did everything possible to make my world a beautiful place to live in. One thing is for sure. I'll never be the same and will never feel whole again.
I miss you mom! The warmth of your hands, when you held mine. The giggle of your laugh, the look in your eyes, saying I'm here for you.. Every time I think about you mom makes me love you more each day! Good bye mom I love you with all my heart.

A Blessed Christmas to all.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Mon, 20 Dec 2010 13:56:00 +0000

May the Lord fulfill you with His promises and bestow on you his Blessings. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Prosperous New Year !

Mommy Moments- Grandparents.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Fri, 17 Sep 2010 14:27:00 +0000

It's nice to be back here in Mommy Moments and for this week's MM theme is about grandparents. My kids are blessed to have a loving and caring Obachan- grandma. My MIL is so sweet, loving and caring.. Actually, I love everything about her she's an amazing woman.

MIL with her grandchildren

My parents are awesome, funny and most of all loving grandparents. My mom and dad are in their 50's healthy and young at hearts. In my teenage years, I despised my parents tight control over my sisters and I. Now that I'm a parent, I have become more appreciative of my dad and mom's parenting skills. I really had great admiration for them. Now that my parents are grandparents already I guess they are the best GP and GM.

Hubby and I marked our 9th year of married life.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 11:31:00 +0000

I feel like I've gotten ahead of myself hmm. There are a few details I haven't told you about, like how I met my husband and how we got married. Those are some of my happiest moments that I would like to share with you guys.
I first met my husband in the Philippines but moving to Yamanashi ten years ago was the best decision I’ve ever done. He was my boss and a former owner of Production Company. He was shy, serious and a lil mysterious type of guy, I was working under he’s owned company. While I was working here abroad I feel so sad and I guess any person living abroad will feel the same. “homesick”. That time I was crying and hoping that he can send me back home even with or without my two month salary. But he refused to; instead he did everything to make me feel happy. From there we became friends and he started calling me four to five times a week.
I have to be honest I didn't give my husband much thought at first. I was in a long-distance relationship and was just looking for a friend to hang out with and talk with occasionally.
About a month later, hubby was trying he’s best to get my attention he literally asking me out for a coffee, If I didn't know him better I probably should have thought he was stalking me LOL ! As they say surviving long distance relationships can be difficult. I believe it’s true; I had just gotten out of my long distance relationship.
My husband and my fellow co workers /housemates helped me to move on so I fall in with the crowd quickly; and from there Mr. Shy guy and I were dating.
Our first date was really funny. He took me to Shinjiku Tokyo to watch the fantastic show and then we went to Gunma ken to visit my cousins. I still don't know if he was trying to impress me or he was just polite to introduce himself.
Fast forward Year 2000 was the year I got engaged, On February 2000, I had to leave my work for good because I feel that maybe I was pregnant. I was in the Philippines when I found out that my suspicion was true. After some series of test my Obstetrics Gynecology told me that I am pregnant. That day I called my husband to announce the good news. I was in tears while telling him (Congratulations you're going to be a Dad!).
My husband was thinking of me that day he was excited he called me and told me that we should get married in June that’s why four months after I told him the good news we got married..
Hubby and I recently marked our 9th year of married life. We celebrated our 9th year wedding anniversary two days ago (yup, wonderful 9th years together. Being with my husband always brings out the best in me. I love you so much.

Training wheels

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Sat, 19 Jun 2010 06:23:00 +0000

One of the task parents must learn is how to teach their children to ride on a bicycle. I was the trainer of my 6 years old daughter. My daughter is familiar with a two small supporting wheels on her bike and I remove it, before that I explained it to her that she might not need the two small wheels anymore. This is something unknown to her since her previous bicycle had a training wheels. After that I took her for training , I put her on the bike and gave her a push slowly as I grasp her t-shirt to avoid any injury. We spend almost 15 to 30 minutes each training.. Now she can ride on her bike alone. clap~clap~clap. I guess teaching her how to ride on a bicycle is one of my achievements.. Now I am happy Mother bicycling with my Daughter ...

Mommy Moments- Motherhood.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Fri, 28 May 2010 14:00:00 +0000

Motherhood has completely changed me. The most completely and humbling experience that I've ever had and my life long journey that never ends. Motherhood is one of the most important jobs in the world and one of the best yet toughest learning experience that I've gone through. I'm very much happy and proud to be a mother... ( I can't imagine my life not being one).

~Kei and Rio you are my Life, my Pride and my Blessing. I love you with all my life~

My daughters have a tremendous impact in my life. They are my pride and joy. There truly is nothing I can say to capture what motherhood means to me but all I know is when they were born into this world was the best thing I have ever done in my life !!

Share your mommy journey here in Mommy Moments Enjoy your weekend guys!!

Food Trip Friday-Homemade Beef Tongkatsu.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Fri, 28 May 2010 12:16:00 +0000

Thank God it's Friday and welcome to Food Trip Friday and here's my FTF for today =)

~Homemade Beef Tongkatsu~

Tonkatsu usually served with rice, miso soup and tsukemono in the style of washoku (traditional Japanese food). Recently, some establishments have taken to serving tonkatsu with the more traditionally Japanese ponzu and grated daikon instead of tonkatsu sauce.

Happy weekend =)

The father of the bride.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Sun, 23 May 2010 13:06:00 +0000

Quick Post ! Hubby was busy flipping through channels today and he came across this variety show that seems to be interesting, it’s about wedding speeches. The two of us we're laughing while watching it because the show was really ＨＩＬＡＲＩＯＵＳ. Gosh, from the videos we watched the father of the bride was seems to be the most stress, nervous and got teary eyes. Actually the six wedding videos was very funny “thumbs up”. After watching it I was curious about these whole things, so I ask my husband what if he is the father of the bride. How does he feel if one of our daughters is getting married? I told him for sure he will do the same. He will probably lost he’s words during the speech or for sure he will cry the entire wedding ceremony lol. He answered me YES. It is hard to think of it right now because I can’t denied the fact that I will cry like a baby and my body will be shaking like a leaf and then(he laugh) Well the truth is I remember your dad during our wedding just think about our wedding. I will be like him.

~ My wedding day ~

My dad is not an emotional type of guy, but I guess I was wrong, the strong man I’ve known for years got emotional and nervous too. I remember when we were walking down the aisle. My dad was cool and I was the one who’s getting really nervous and stressed out and honestly, just wanted the wedding to be over because I was so nervous. So my dad was trying to make me feel better. He told me to smile and don’t cry because this is my big day don’t get nervous anak, in my surprise as I look at my dad’s eyes I saw him in he’s hilarious “tears of joy” (that’s what he called it) I just busted out laughing while looking at him! Funny because he keeps on telling me don’t cry anak at your own wedding but the thing was he’s the one who's crying.
Well, I remember somewhere in the middle of me and hub’s vows, my dad and mom started to cry, which of course, made me cry. After the wedding my parents both came in our hotel room to congratulate us then my dad told me he accepted the reality that he needs to "give me away" then he started crying again. Now as I end this post I guess it is proven that the father of the bride is the most nervous, an emotional wreck during her daughter’s wedding day. Have fun =)

I'm taking my time off from blogging for a week or two.

noreply@blogger.com (Jac) — Tue, 18 May 2010 05:26:00 +0000

I had a very busy day since past few weeks; I’m preparing some papers/documents for my mom. We're planning to invite her for vacation next month. Not only that I am also working on household chores, PTA activities, and other stuff that I feel like I'm a superwoman already whew! To the point that I wished time can take me as far as 24 hours. So I’ve decided I need a break!! I thought that this is the right time for me to take my time off from blogging for a week or two. I feel like with so many things to do I have a little time to do them. This is hard that I need to take my time off especially that I dearly love this blog !!!
I love my blog because I've learned a lot of things, I’ve been exposed to a lot of great resources that I would treasure and have otherwise missed. I am thankful for the great opportunities like I’ve made connections with people that have lasted for years, people I haven’t shake hands or talk with face to face, but I would consider my friends..
To all my friends and readers thank you for your love and understanding. I’ll be back soon, promise…

Lots of love Jac
