The Kitchen Mom by dhess

The school year is about to end, like most of the kids, Chelsea is excited to start her vacation, she even told us about her plans for her vacation, seems funny but this is one way that we see how she tries to manage her time. And aside from playing outside with her scooter and friends, going to the beach, and visiting our relatives, we want her to have a meaningful and memorable vacation.


Chelsea is really full of energy and ideas, aside from drawing, we allow her to do small chores at home and believe it or not, she also managed to grow few plants in her mini-garden. She also started to join fun-runs, which we enjoyed a lot as it serves as bonding time for us. During my younger years, I also wanted to have this kind of activities but time and opportunity forbid it, so this time I wanted my daughter to be exposed to different activities that will help her develop her mind and physical abilities.

A staycation is always on my list to do things every year. Its one way to have a nice bonding moment,to relax ,to relieve stress and to escape the busy city.

This was our staycation in Loreland Farm  last year.

Loreland Farm is one of the nicest resort in Antipolo City. I booked our 2 days and 1 night stay in Buenvinido Travel and Tours.








  This is where we stay for 2 days and 1 night. Because I was too excited I forgot to take a photo of our room. But the room have TV and Aircon



They have kiddie pools too. 
We have complimentary breakfast only for 2 ,so we decided to order pancake for Chelsea and she liked it.


After  breakfast we just explore the whole Loreland Farm then decided to check out  and go to Luljettas Hanging Garden.

"Life is not easy, not just for me but to anyone living and breathing"
Why do I feel so down? Why do I feel so sad? Why do I feel alone? Why do I feel so angry with little things?  Why am I like this? I feel so tired!
These are the questions I asked myself few years back. .
Let me tell you something about myself. .
I was an Overseas Filipino Worker in HongKong.I worked as a Domestic Helper who starts my day around 5 am and ends at 9 pm. Working as Domestic Helper is not easy, but I always tell myself that I'm doing this for our future.
Every Sunday I was able to meet my mom who is also working there,I was able to meet new friends and I was able to eat and buy things that I can't buy before .I was able to travel and visit other places like Macau, Shenzhen and Shanghai.

I'm too happy to buy new things ,eat the food I like with my own hard earned money.
I know what are my goals in life and I'm not afraid to follow my dreams.

But that was the past. 
After 7 years 
I'm …
