Play-Doh Jewelry

Ashrie undeniably loves Play-Doh. I think for months now it has been her favorite toy. Kneading it is fun, molding it to shape is such a joy (especially if you can decipher the forms that you created). But sometimes, what gives us the most laugh are those "not even close", "trying hard" sculptures that each of us created. And yes, we play with her most of the time.

Just yesterday, Jane and Ashrie made clay jewelry. We have cooked and eaten Yummy Dough before, but now Ashrie got to wear Play-Doh and I have a couple of photos to share.

Mother's Day 2012

We had a simple celebration yesterday in honor of our beloved Jane, the mom. Our day started by attending the Mother's Day special service at church. As I mentioned in my post last week, the event was dubbed Tea With Mom and as a special treat, each of the mommies received a bag of Crabtree and Evelyn goodies. Inside were a box of lemon biscuits and a pack of afternoon tea, to be precise. Concurrently, I accompanied Ashrie in Sunday School and she did this card.

After the service the dads served pastries and tea to the moms, an activity we did not partake of. On the other hand we headed to Northpoint for lunch. With a toddler we must carefully plan a schedule which will be easiest for all of us and which would not affect her time of eating, primarily. Amazingly, the mall had a festive ambience, with the grocery full of shoppers especially crowding the fresh flowers section! When we purchased something they even had a craft activity for moms and kids. So my two ladies sat down to make a terrarium. What a keepsake to remember the day!

Craft Time at the mall

As I do not have a surprise for her this year, I bought a bigger oven as a present (If my memory serves me right, she wore this day the pearl jewelry that I gave her last year). Back at home, we tested the oven by baking a cake. Our second try and I think this one's better than what we did for Ashrie's birthday. Jane still cooked dinner (even it's her day). It was crab in pumpkin and coconut milk, served with hot steamed rice. So yummy!


This coming Sunday, Jane will go out with two of her girl friends for a mommy’s day-out! And I will be in-charge of taking care of Ashrie for the time that she’s away. So help me God.

Creative Children Photography

Found this online and I think the photos are way too cute! It's not the usual "baby on a bucket or little girl in a tutu holding a flower" type of photography but it captures the "funny and most of the time crazy, chaotic relationship, siblings share.

Check this out!



My personal faves includes the "girl lifting the sofa", the "blouse with iron marks", the "pliers", and the siblings in the trench coat. Witty!

This is so inspiring, I think I should try doing some creative photography sometime.

And oh! Just found out through my brother's extensive research that these pictures has been out for quite some time already and these kids are bigger now (obviously)! Catch more of these adorable kids through their blog.

Tea With Mom

Jane received this lovely carnation last night, alongside an invite for Mothers' Day celebration this coming Sunday. This is actually from Evangel Family Church, our home church here in Singapore.

So as early as now, let me greet the mother of my daughter, a Happy Mothers' Day! You are doing a great job and I appreciate your every effort. You are really (as we Filipinos say it) the light of the home. I love you dearly.

And to my mom, thank you so much, for everything.

Evangel Family Church meets every Sunday at 9am and 11am for the Chinese and English Services respectively. For more info check out Evangel's website.
