Happy 1st Birthday, Liam!

10.18.2011 by Leah //

Today marks the 1st birthday of my nephew and godson, Liam Anthony!   He's my 1st pamangkin by consanguinity (he's my younger brother's first-born) so you could say without doubt that I dote on him pretty much. I clearly remember the day when he was born, he was far away from us (my brother and his family lives in the southern part of the country) so we were always excited ... READ MORE

Western-Style Invitations

09.05.2011 by Leah //

I am done printing Liam's birthday invitations, all 90 of them.   Yey!   But for weeks I've been thinking on how to prettify the catalogue envelopes I bought for these invites.   I chose catalogue envelopes because I want them to be in brown, just right for Liam's cowboy-themed birthday celebration. Last weekend, as I was cleaning our "work room" - I saw my craft puncher in ... READ MORE

Liam’s Birthday Invitation

My nephew is turning one year old this coming October!  He was my ring bearer (am glad our church allowed a 7-month old baby boy to be a bearer, whew!) and as the first apo (grandchild) in our side, he's a run-away favorite! For his birthday, his parents decided to have a "Cowboy" theme.   I was tasked to do his invitation, and I immediately drew inspiration from this custom ... READ MORE

Valuing Health and Insurance

04.23.2011 by Leah //

After what happened to my cousin last Tuesday, I became all the more resolved that I will not waver in paying my insurance premiums and ensure that my office health insurance card is always in my wallet. You see, my cousin did not have a health card or a personal accident insurance at the time of her accident.  She just started work at her office and you know how it is in ... READ MORE

A Day of Pain and Hope

04.19.2011 by Leah //

I'm writing today's post for my cousin, Mae, who is at the hospital right now undergoing a 4-hour operation to repair her right leg.  You see, she had an accident early morning today on her way to work.  Her left leg's already on the first step of a PUV when another rushing PUV smashed directly at her.  She was stuck in the middle.  When the PUV  pulled ...
