Snippets of our adventures and ventures.
I love watching my child sleep. It keeps me calm, happy and overflowing with love. There is something about watching her sleep that gives me the serenity I need at the end of a crazy day. Honestly, I could gaze at her forever and never get tired. I just love seeing every inches of her growing!
Scribbling must have been so tiring. She fell asleep hoarding some crayons. 🙂
Happy New Year, Friends!
We had an awesome 2014. Praise God! Though there were hardships (not that bad, really) along the way but all in all it was a good year. Our little family has learned and grew for the last year. Together we walked hand and hand for greater things. And now a new year has started and I am pretty excited about the new things to come and every possibilities in our way. It’s a long way to go but I am positive of what’s in store for us this year as we once again venture into new adventures for 2015 hand in hand as a family together, always!
It’s 12:07am and I am still awake because I had to finish some work. Half awake as part of me wants to sleep and be with my snoozing daughter and husband. I was not able to carry on my work during daytime today as I have to attend to other things. Since I am given flexible time to work, I do it whatever time of the day or night. I’m a lucky woman!
I looked through the window and I felt like I’m the only one alive for the hour. Most of the time this is the scenario during nighttime, only me or me and husband are the only ones not sleeping in our neighborhood. This is most likely because we work for people on the other side of the world which has opposite timezone than ours. Though we are given flexibility of our time, we make it a point when needed to be around during their office hours and vice versa.
anyways, we live in a rural area within the city, an hour away from the noisy night life at downtown. Around 9pm, peace and quiet comes and I’m loving it. I wanted to go outside to take a picture but I stayed instead and quick to finish my work as I felt and sensed some kind of creepiness outside, yay me!
Yes, on the right is coffee. What’s hard work without coffee? So, to fellow night owlers, let’s party! Raise your coffee and cheers!!
The past few weeks has been physically and emotionally tiring for me which eventually led to my spirit being crashed, too. Work deadlines are chasing me and keeping up is hard sometimes. And fear of not meeting any deadline is getting into me. My strength threshold has come to it’s limit, my mind is scattered all over the place and I’m so out of focus. Most of the time when the evening comes my body aches like hell. I get burnout!
And last week was a trying time financially, we got broke because of an unplanned purchase of a parcel of land a week before. We dived into it because it’s a good investment and we could never have it cheaper in the future. We didn’t regret it though, we just have to sacrifice a little for something we think could benefit our family in the long run.
I am so hoping that this whole thing will come to it’s end and that work will not be as demanding as it is now. Well, I’m kind of seeing that in the next two weeks when tax season will end on it’s own.
And the photo above speaks the same language as me. That’s our front gate/fence sort of thing! Torn, worn out by the passage of time and of its service. Surely, it needs replacement but that is not our first priority right now. But there will come a time that a sturdy and beautiful fence will great us as we enter our home’s threshold.
That torn and worn gate will come to pass and so are everything in life. A season ends and starts anew. And that every ending has a threshold that brings new beginnings. All hard work will paid off. Better days is coming very soon and everything we hoped for will come. We only have to wait for it!
What better way to start a new blog and be able to introduce my family which will be the core this blog. Thank you Weekly Photo Challenge for creatively thought of this prompt!
Our little family means the world to me, my inspiration, my life and I wouldn’t trade it for anything else.
We started our family of two 3 years ago then 1+ years later we were blessed with a daughter making our family even more complete and happier. My life is never the same from the first day of being on my own family. Life has just gotten better each day and I am forever grateful for this wonderful family! We had our shares of up and downs and of tears and of laughter like any other family but it is what makes us a family even more.
People come and go into our lives but family stays and understands. It drives us crazy sometimes but in the end it is all worth it.
