Not a Good Mom?

Next year, I’ll be having three kids… (I have a 10 month old daughter now, and by February, I’ll give birth to my twins). I know I’m one of the lucky few. Not everyone gets to have three lovely angels by her side! But still, I’m worried.

THE BIGGEST DILEMMA: What if I don’t turn out to be a good mom?

I’ve read a lot of books, participated in many forums, and I’ve practiced the “art of mommying” among my sisters but I still I can’t shake off the jitters. I’m just praying that everything will turn out well and I’m trying to prepare myself for everything…

Part of this preparation for my full blown “mommyhood” next year is reading a book on child discipline. That’s why I’m crossing my fingers and joining the “New Dare to Discipline Book” contest of MarriageandBeyond.com.

If you want to try it, here’s how: Visit MarriageandBeyond.com and subscribe to their blog; Write about the contest in your blog, Include a link in your post to the url of MarriageandBeyond.com; Leave a comment with a link to your post; and Increase your chances of winning by the number of comments you leave. The winner gets The New Dare to Discipline book ($14.99 value) and Starbucks GCs this Xmas.

Real Leaf Paparazzi

I have never been a fan of sodas. Nor did I ever engage in a one-night spree with beer or vodka. Instead, I have always loved ice-cold tea. Drinking tea is a habit I’ve developed since I was in college and my ‘tea-addictivity’ has never wavered since. I’ve patiently put up with teabags for years but fortunately, bottled-up teas are now available and distributed in heaps. These days, I’m much fond of Nestea’s Real Leaf Tea and I share this fondness with my two closest “allies” – my partner in life and my younger brother. W hat follows is our one big atte mpt to encourage more people to engage in our quest for a Real Life with Coca Cola’s Real Le af tea (and of course, an attempt to get a prize from Nuffnang's exciting contest- Real Leaf Paparazzi!)… This is the typical “Juan” trying to have a Real Life. With the help of the Real Leaf tea, my brother 'John' tries to stay 100% on. He tries to relieve the exhaustion, stress, and anxiety brought by… (a) a hard day’s work as a n...

Mommy Moments: Dear Mommy

Dear Mommy Dear Mommy, your child is your princess. She is your responsibility. If not for her own sake, never let her get hurt by any means. Dear Mommy, your child is your fan. She learns and takes after what you do, how you feel, where you go, how you react, what you think, why you love and why you hate. For her, be the best. Do not fail at being a good person for she too might suffer the same fate. Dear Mommy, your child is your student. Teach her everything that you know and guide her in every way that you can. Bombard her with good thoughts, warm emotions, and logical and critical reasoning. Empower her with love, understanding and patience. Dear Mommy, your child is your flesh and blood. Accept her. Recognize the whole of her - strengths, weaknesses, successes, and failures. Never forsake her for making wrong decisions and doing wrong things. She needs your guidance and your encouragement, not your pity, pride, and punishment. She needs you even when she says she doesn...
