Motherhood is one adventure after another. I live, I learn, I write.

Steve Jobs 1955-2011

By 3 Comments

Steve Jobs fought the good fight against an unusual form of pancreatic cancer. He died on Oct. 6, 2011.

He is a modern-day revolutionary who reinvented the “click” wheel and led a company who single-handedly shaped how we consume music and entertainment. As a music fan, the iPod changed my life. My first iPod was a silver mini and my love affair with music grew even more. Now as a mom, I don’t know what I’d do without my iPhone and the apps that keep DW busy, entertained and educated in brief quiet spurts therefore allowing me to do my other motherly tasks.

Thank you so much Steve Jobs.

The Most Important Lesson I Learned from Samantha Sotto

By 25 Comments

Samantha Sotto was a mom who parked herself at Starbucks Katipunan because she didn’t want to trek back to Paranaque (wasting gas and toll fare) while her kids were at pre-school class at the Ateneo. Those 3-hour waits bore her first novel — Before Ever After. Sam’s journey to becoming a published author (by Random House no less!) is awe-inspiring, I was lucky to have met her personally and I share with you the most important lesson I learned from her. See you online!

The Three Stooges

I get a bit personal here and share my favorite family pic so far 🙂 Us three in a pic is a bit rare because I’m the de facto photographer and the best bit of the pic is that DW took it and we all looked decent (DW didn’t do a funny face this time). I wish you great family photos moms and dads and take a lot of them!! See you online!
