HRC Graduation day
End of the School year and I didn’t notice that my daughter has completed the entry level of education or so called ABC level from HRC. (ACE standard)
The HRC graduation day was held at MBC premise, and we are thankful for their Teacher’s and Principal for putting all their effort to educate our children and helping us parents to build GOD fearing character in them. For the past one year, after transferring to Heritage, she had shown us the milestone of her improvement. We received bountiful blessing’s this year, not only from the changes and achievements in school but even in our family spiritual needs. Our Pastor’s and fellow brethren has been very helpful and supportive after we transfer to the church. My daughter was always happy and counting the days and waiting for Sunday to attend the Sunday School. She had memorize lots of scriptures learned from both lessons, and we THANK GOD and PRAISE him for guidance and provisions in our life.
The program started at 2pm as per schedule and there were slides of photos for each and everyone’s milestones to show to their parents. Followed by the Ants and Grasshoppers presentation, were my daughter played as Ants, who were diligent and saving food on summer in preparation for the rainy days. I like the part were they worked and sing…(will share the video later). Our Pastor was also invited and gave us the WORD of GOD as part of the program. There were Chinese presentation and the last part was the MOST amazing item. All of them had recited their whole year, memory verse, memory work and the character of being, punctual, creative and tolerance. It was long and the children were all brilliant for memorizing and learning these three character.
MBC Pastor was the Guest Speaker and help to award the graduates and my daughter was one of them…The moment I saw her wearing that gown….wow….my heart felt gratitude and happiness and I can’t define them in words..(although this is just a beginning for her). Thank GOD for this blessing to see our daughter growing with a GOD fearing character: "Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding."
We had the refreshment after the graduation and went home joyful for the whole event..

London trip
I’m back and would like to share the beautiful and amazing experience we had in LONDON during our vacation.
We always taught this place is very far and expensive but our point of view has changed after our trip. London, is a beautiful country it has the most amazing architecture I had ever seen( sa kin lang po yan ha). The structure of each building is unique and old and the Victorian design is really eye catching. There are lots of tourist spots that you can visit and you do not need to pay but you will definitely gain and learned experience and information. We arrived on Saturday afternoon after the 13hrs. flight from SG and the earlier plan was to just deliver our bags to my mom’s house and we could immediately go for a walk at Notting Hill to check the Portobello. But, we were too tired and had jetlag so we decided to take a rest and eat a yummy nilaga for dinner.
Day2 was fruitful our first pit stop was the Metropolitan Tabernacle Baptist Church (Spurgeons) at the Elephant and Castle. It was huge and we are blessed to attend their worship service and met Peter Masters in person (we didn’t had the chance to shake his hand). We then proceed to Westminster and alight in front of Westminster Abbey. The moment I saw the Big Ben I felt gratitude in my heart how LORD GOD has given us this opportunity to visit this wonderful place.(1 Th 5:18 In everything give thanks…) We took lots of photos and had our quick bite while hopping from one place to another. Lots of picture and I could remember how Angel felt when she saw the London Eye, from this day till we took the ride she was always mentioning and asking to take the ride….We also had a glance at the National Gallery to see those beautiful and huge paintings and guess what it is free….. Angel saw the box of money where you can donate 1pound for the maintenance of the place. She was so excited to donate the coins and didn’t realize that we gave her 4 pounds..hahaha…anyway it was worth to see this place. Mama brought us to Picadilly and there we bought few souvenirs. She also brought us to eat in one of the Chinese restaurant where you can eat all you can it cost us 8.50 pounds, it was ok kasi dami naman ng variety kaya lang slow eater talaga kami at laging lugi sa eat all you can…….. Went home to mama’s place and packed some of our things to check-in at the Hotel at Brent Cross.
We arrive there about 9pm and later found out that my booking was cancellllleeeed…what????? At first, I tried to be calmed and think that everything will be fine but when the reception guy was not offering us any room for the time being while he’s trying to locate my booking, then I realize that I had driven him and he became more friendlier and offered us the room for a family, it was a executive suite with Q-size bed and we could settle the issue the next morning, he also reminded us that if the booking was really cancelled we had to pay 150 pounds per night….I didn’t bother about it….all we want is a good rest…..I know that our GOD will surely handle this situation for us the next morning, as I had made all the necessary arrangement before this trip, somebody has just tested my temper and annoying me to ruin my mood….
Our day 3 of tour was OK, the weather is not as good as the day before but it was fine with minor drizzling. Had our breakfast in the Hotel, were I took a shot of my daughter while eating, I realize that she’s no longer a baby, she looked like a matured lady with a very fine moves….and her face is so bright and cool having her meal.
Mama has to work so hubby and I decided that we’ll visit the British Museum, it was a good experience for my daughter to see the different ancient cultures. The Museum was huge and there are lots of things to see, we had our lunch inside and the tour ended at 4pm. We took another bus and alight in front of the Tower Bridge, but daughter and hubby felt too cold and we decided to move and take another bus back to Kensington. We’d seen lots of pinoy’s at the business area, nagkalat talaga ang pinoy everywhere you won’t get homesick, kasi me maririnig kang nagtatagalog…..
The next pit stop was the London eye…hubby checked the entrance fee so that we could plan on next Saturday. We proceed to mom’s house and took our dinner with her. My little lady was too tired that she could hardly balance herself while sleeping on her daddy’s shoulder. We arrived at the hotel before 10pm and guess what the room were all settled….Thank GOD…HE’s surely with us every step of the way…..
Day4 was my little lady’s bday, she’s already 5 years old.
We visited another museum this time, Natural science and history museum and the V&A museum because it is just located side by side. Again the weather was cold and drizzling, sabi ng anak ko mommy,, another museum again…why they had so many museum…super dami ng tanong when we went inside the Victoria and Albert museum eh super dami kasi ng greek sculpture na puro nakahubad kaya ayun nagmadali na kaming umalis sa sobrang dami di ko pa nasasagot yun tanong meron ng kasunod. Eh minsan malayo daddy nya kasi puro kuha rin sya ng picture buti na lang tig-isa kami ng camera kung di puro view na walang tao (I mean wala kami) yun picture na dala namin….hehehehhh…kaya ayun dami nyang picture ng magagandang view tapos yun sakin puro mukha namin…..
We targeted to complete the tour by 4pm para makauwi agad since it is my little lady’s bday kaya we decided to go home na. Bought a nice and delicious cake in one of the cake shop along the busy alley near Harrods…..yun pumasok nga pala kami sa harrods and bought a toy and water bottle for her as a present. We celebrated the little lady’s bday at home together with her lola and she had open all the gifts from her lola and some of my mama’s friends….It was a happy and fruitful day and we went back to the hotel tired…
Day5 –mama was not working in the afternoon so we went out together. We walk around the Kensington Palace and visited Princess Diana’s house and her garden. Not much special or extravagant on this place but I like the nature and her huge garden where maybe she used to read books and unwind during her busy days. Mama and my little lady enjoyed watching the ducks being fed by the tourist and the squirrel just around you waiting for nuts. We proceed to oxford circus and mama bought 2 pair of clothes for my little lady I also bought her a shoes and she was really thankful. Then we took our late lunch at pizza hut. Because we are a pizza lover, in Singapore we used to order large pizza for 3 person so, when we decided to order we choose 1 large and 1 med. Thin crust pizza and we are surprised to see the med. Size is equivalent to x-large size…after lunch we felt tired and bloated…hehehe….i like the dessert they served together with that meal…yummy….
Day6 & 7- the weather was good, we bought the BIG BUS TOUR ticket near HIGH Street and took the ride from Royal Albert Hall….it was the whole day activity then we alight in front of Harrods… went back to the hotel and prepared our things to check out the next day. Day7 we moved to mom’s house in the morning and we took the river thames boat ride from Westminster and alight in front of the Tower of London. My prince and little lady had lots of photos from this tourist spot. We didn’t notice the time and unable to visit and climb inside the tower bridge.
Day8- first pit stop is the London Zoo….we took the bus from Kensal rise and headed to baker street to change for bus 274 going to London zoo. The weather is fine not raining, and we had prayed the night before to give us good weather so that we can enjoyed the walk at the zoo. Buying of ticket was not as fast as in Singapore and the cost was triple as sg zoo….but my little daughter requested this visit to her lola..and lola say “YES”…..
From the entrance I could see that it was smaller than our zoo here. We went inside the aquarium and seen few water creature, it was dark inside and not may fishes to observed. Then it came to my mind how blessed we are to experience this trip and now you could evaluate the differences and advantages of what we have in Singapore and what other countries could offer to their tourist. The tour ended after 3 hours, my little girl still insist to see all but we do not have much time…we leave the zoo at 4pm and proceeded to Notting Hill for Portobello, it was another experience to see their tiange with lots of people. I bought some t-shirts as souvenir and we tried the KING PRAWN and some pretzel garnish with chocolate syrup and sugar. After that we went back to the town area of Westminster and took the LONDON EYE ride…what an amazing view…the Parliament house and Big Ben are really wonderful, I can’t remember how many times I said THANK YOU GOD,…to this grace and it a was magnificent experience. We went home happy…but on the way home we had inquiry at the Marriott Hotel at Westminster to book the next day trip to Bath, Windsor and Stonehenge but was later found that it was fully book…so we have to change the plan..(Nothing is impossible to GOD: Luke 18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.)
Day 9: It was mom’s 51st birthday, I prepare some seafood pasta plus the ready mix cake. We had our breakfast first and went to Kilburn to buy some chocolates and some goodies. We also shop at PRIMARK and was surprise to see the clothing, it was affordable and comparable to the pricing in SG. The design was also not bad but mostly it was catered for winter season…after this we went back home again and take our lunch before we proceed to Buckingham Palace. Lots of people, we didn’t see Mr. Bean as what my little said….we took a walked all the way to St. James Park/ Palace and they feed the ducks and birds. Came out from the Horse guards and manage to take a shot with one of the Horse Guards, after taking the shot hubby noticed that my little girl was pinching her nose. We tried another shot but she do not want to remove as the place was so smelly..
The shop are all close at 7pm during winter season so we didn’t had the chance to shop at night…
Day10- coming back to SG, I realize that even the airport was too busy. It looked like our own T1 in Philippines. When we check-in our bags the lady from the counter offered us 600 euro and upgrade to business class. I was not thinking that much so I turned down her offer so when I told hubby about the offer he said “why not take the next flight so that we could experience the business class for long flight” suddenly I felt guilty for not taking her offer…..hahahahhh, maybe next time…..
These trip was really a blessing and were happy to be back in SG….on the way, both of us thinking on the next trip which maybe next year with GOD’s grace…
Thank you for the readers, hope you have learned and I had shared some information with you….

Vacation
I’m so excited!
One more day and we will be off to go to visit London, UK. We are grateful for this wonderful blessings from GOD. Last night, we started packing our things and finished it around 2am in the morning. The weather in London is colder now according to my mom unlike two weeks ago, when she called and told us not to bring too many jackets. This time, she even told us to bring bonnet for my daughter and hubby.
We have planned to visit many places and hope to see them all provided the time and weather permits. If there will be no delay, we should be reaching Heathrow airport by 3pm and planning to walk around Notting Hill in the afternoon and visit the Portobello at night.
I will tell more stories when we reach there.
May GOD give us provisions, safety and good weather for this trip….
Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

My Little Lady
Time really flies that fast and I almost didn’t notice that my little girl is acting like a little lady. Last night, we attended a children’s party from one of my hubby’s officemate. While choosing the right dress for her, I had some choices and one by one she turned it down by saying, “mommy, I want a dress so that I look like a lady, I don’t want pants”. She chose the light pink skirt and a dark pink tube as a pair. When she tried and wore together I said wow! You really look astounding! Again, a pink sandals to match the whole attire. I was set back and thinking how many more years and she will know how to choose her own dress and I’m glad that she had learned to carry herself wearing dresses not only on Sunday but on all occasions. She only had the chance to wear pants whenever there’s outdoor activities to make her feel more comfortable.
I thank GOD for giving us such a wonderful daughter like her.
Can’t resist not to take her picture that night.

Zoo Trip with Children Ministry
I voluntered to assist the children from our church from their trip to the Zoo yesterday. We started with the word of prayer (guidance and good weather) and some bible stories how GOD created those animals(by Word alone), when and what day it was created. While the camp master (Bro Chai Heng) was speaking the devil destructed the assembly and there's a show with a very loud music. They sung at least 4 songs and it was really hard to catch children's attention when they are destructed by a wordly songs.
The journey started at about 11am and the whether was slightly drizzling. We called it a blessing as our Heavenly Father do not want us to feel too hot so he showered us with a little water and a cloudy sky. We had our lunch after the elephant show as some of the children was already hungry. Sis Felicia brought fried noodles and they bought chicken nuggets. The night before I baked cheese cupcake and sprinkle them with different toppings, chocolate chips, hersheys chocolate and cheese. The most famous flavor for them of course was the chocolate chips. We divided the group into 3 groups and name them, alligator, bear and coconut...ha.ha.ha.....the group C was the older children and they were behind to watch the youngest group Bear.
The tour ends at 3pm, they were all tired and some are disappointed to see the polar bear sleeping. But they were all thankful to experience this wonderful trip....the teacher's told them watch out for the next trip which will be in Sentosa with God's grace by end of this year...probably.....
It is good to see these children happy and enjoyed watching those animals....
I was tiring but worthwhile serving God thru this small thing. I remember what the Lord Jesus Christ says on Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 In every thing give thanks:
for this is the will of God
in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Memory Verse
I was planning to scrap tonight and suddenly it pops-up in my mind to journal those memory verses that my daughter has memorized from the past few months.
It has been a routine and norm for her that before she sleep she has to recite and tell us these verses that she had learned from us, school and sunday school:
Ephesians 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord:
for this is right.
Psalms 34:1-10 (A Psalm of David, when he changed his behaviour before
Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed.)
1 - I will bless the LORD at all times:
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 - My soul shall make her boast in the LORD:
the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 - O magnify the LORD with me,
and let us exalt his name together.
4 - I sought the LORD, and he heard me,
and delivered me from all my fears.
5 - They looked unto him, and were lightened:
and their faces were not ashamed.
6 - This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him,
and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 - The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him,
and delivereth them.
8 - O taste and see that the LORD is good:
blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
9 - O fear the LORD, ye his saints:
for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 - The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger:
but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
Proverbs 18:24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly:
and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Psalms 112:5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth:
he will guide his affairs with discretion.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Matthew 5:3-9 (Sermon on the Mount)
3 - Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 - Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 - Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 - Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness:
for they shall be filled.
7 - Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 - Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 - Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
These are some of the verses that she knows and I will use it on one of my LO this week...
P.S.
We truly thank God that at the early stage my daughter knows some of this verses. I believe that she will accumulate more verses before she reached 12years of age. Me and my husband truly believe on what King Solomon said on his Proverbs 22:6 (Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old he will not depart from it.)
He shared to me the preaching he heard during Angel's program about the child's character. That most of the parents are aiming for their kids to have an excellent grade from their report card (which is not bad) but neglecting the most important thing which is the character. Most of the well known person around the world are intelligent but doesn't have character. The examples that was given is like Bill Clinton which is rich and intelligent but doesn't have character when his reputation was torn assunder due to what he did. Other's like the CEO's of other big company in the US who were accused of fraud. They were intelligent but doesn't have a character. The character of God fearing person. This is what we want with our daughter and not the Ace from her report card. Wether we like it or not we will be living her in due times but our heart has no worries since she learn how to walk and fear God.
We can not train a person when they are in their secondary onwards. That's why King Solomon said "...train up a child". A child age started from 2years old to 6years old. And thru daily prayer, God will surely help us in building her a God fearing character.
We are glad as well that sometimes she remind us to pray before we went out from the door of our house. She remind us that she haven't prayed yet before she went to sleep. She is telling us some characters that will not please our Lord Jesus.
It has been a routine and norm for her that before she sleep she has to recite and tell us these verses that she had learned from us, school and sunday school:
Ephesians 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord:
for this is right.
Psalms 34:1-10 (A Psalm of David, when he changed his behaviour before
Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed.)
1 - I will bless the LORD at all times:
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 - My soul shall make her boast in the LORD:
the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 - O magnify the LORD with me,
and let us exalt his name together.
4 - I sought the LORD, and he heard me,
and delivered me from all my fears.
5 - They looked unto him, and were lightened:
and their faces were not ashamed.
6 - This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him,
and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 - The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him,
and delivereth them.
8 - O taste and see that the LORD is good:
blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
9 - O fear the LORD, ye his saints:
for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 - The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger:
but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
Proverbs 18:24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly:
and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Psalms 112:5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth:
he will guide his affairs with discretion.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Matthew 5:3-9 (Sermon on the Mount)
3 - Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 - Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 - Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 - Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness:
for they shall be filled.
7 - Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 - Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 - Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
