So, I haven’t been posting WW for a while now. I kinda got tired doing it, I guess? It felt like I’m obligated to do it and I don’t like that. So I stayed out of the loop for a while. 

Anyway, this is not going to be “wordless” — obviously. (the title is already a give away .. haha!) The photo above was taken yesterday. We had to take Super Nanny to the medical center to have her vaccination. It’s part of her visa requirement. 

B and I were left inside the car while Baby Daddy and Super Nanny went inside. I was too tired to get out of the car and I don’t think its wise to bring B inside the clinic. As soon as they got out of the car, B started wailing. (As in, cryola ang bata!) I tried to distract her with books. water bottle. a pail. the ipad.

Nothing worked! What else can I do?! So, I gave her my make up kit! LOLS. Her reaction:

WOOOOWW!! 

She picked up a brush and started swiping it on my face. Then she started brushing the car seat. Oh no!! I showed her how to do it. For maximum effect, I let her swipe some of my face powder so she can put it on my face.  After some time, I had to stop her from putting powder on my face na. (Hello, ang puti ko na!). I let her play with my eyeshadow / lipstick palette next. She applied lipstick on me and a little on herself. 🙂 That kept her busy till Baby Daddy came back. 

Then she did this:

The make up session made her hungry. LOLS!

I’m so glad I have a very “girly” girl. We can be kikay together.

Have you noticed something different with how I write? I hope you don’t mind that I write in Filipino (Tagalog) every now and then. I just find it easier to blog when I’m using my own language. Anyway, I’m sure Google will be able to translate. 🙂

 
Please keep reading my blog? 🙂

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO” mindset. It sounds fun — and sometimes it IS harmless. But when we let it guide our decisions without pause… it can turn into a habit of acting first, thinking later. 

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)

You’re really a hard habit to break.
