Our March Best Bits (2018)
Hello March!
"Peace is the beauty of life. It is sunshine. It is the smile of a child, the love of a mother, the joy of the father, the togetherness of a family. It is the advancement of the man, the victory of a just cause, the triumph of truth." -Menachem Begin

It was a month filled with colors. Zephrine learned the different colors. She knows colors red, yellow, blue, purple, orange, green, white and black. She can sings 6 songs now, Havana Oh-nana, Tomorrow, Twinkle Little Star, ABCD, The Finger Family and Head Shoulders Knees & Toes. We discovered her love for singing. She's learning more. She loves to call herself "baby" and she knows her name, Zephrine. She still doesn't like any hair ties but likes to wear necklaces and hats. We are teaching her the different parts and things inside our house. She loves to go to Jollibee with her dad. Zephrine loves Nanay Sofi. She is her favorite playmate. She learned to eat all kinds because of Nanay. She dances when we play music. She knows the opposites like "Up & Down", Cold and Hot, Happy and Sad, Long and Short, Full and Empty, Big and Small, Back and Front, & Sleep/Awake.
Our baby is so sweet. She loves to sleep beside with my hands wrap around her body. We pray together at night and in the morning when we wake up and she knows when to say "AMEN". She eats by herself. She loves to drive our car and her mini car. She likes bikes but she doesn't know how to ride it yet. She's a happy little lady who says wow to almost everything beautiful and interesting around her.
She is our joy.
It's been two (2) months now since I started attending my Yoga Classes. I feel more head space. Our office expansion is done. We are hiring more assets for both the GA and the Web Departments. Our bosses were here most of the time. It was a month full of learning. We finished all contracts, government contributions organization, compliance errands, and the vat removal meetings. There are lots to do as the company grows. We are also learning our new roles.
Our weekends. March 3 & 4.
Saturday was Zephrine's Day. We went to Kidzoona.
We attended church in Cabanatuan because we had our FSY meeting afterwards. I had another service opportunity when I played the piano during our sacrament meeting.
March 10 & 11.
We attended the 176th Relief Society Anniversary.
We visited Arayat Ward the next day. It was a great timing because that Sunday the branch's new president was called, President Oliver Merdegia. It was a very inspiring Sunday for all of us young workers in the vineyard of the Lord.
March 17 & 18
This weekends was our Stake Conference. Our presiding authority was my mission president, Elder Schmutz who is now serving as a counselor in the Philippines Area Presidency.
I was one of the speakers for the Saturday Session. I was really grateful for my husband because he woke me up to attend my yoga class. During my class, I was able to receive a lot of inspiration for the message that the Lord wanted me to share.
Sunday session was magnificent. It was one of the most spiritual stake conferences I have ever attended. I loved the messages from our Stake President, the Angeles Mission Presidents (& wife), President Briones of the Manila Temple, a recent convert, and Elder & Sister Schmutz. What a great day!
March 24 & 25
Michael came back from their EQ Camp. It was very therapeutic to be away from him for a short time. Then Nanay, Zephrine and I attended Sister Camille's baby shower at dinner time. Then we met Daddy Mike at church and watched a little bit of the Stake Basketball Tournament.
Sunday, I taught a lesson about Keeping the Sabbath Day holy in the Relief Society Class.
Elder Babida attended our Sacarament meeting. Michael visited SF1 to train his new Secretary. Then, we all attended church at 1:00 PM. We were all so tired so we missed the FSY Devo and had our looooooong nap. We woke up at passed 7:30PM. Wow! I love long naps!
Another busy week gone so fast.
The holy week was just a blink of an eye.
On Thursday, we went to the office to clean and swam at Sister Ticong's house.
We chilled at home for the following days till March 31. We did our laundry, cleaning, organizing and movie marathon. We enoyed our long naps and worked online from time to time.
March, thank you for being so kind to us. The best part is we bought a piece of land for our dream house this month. Ah! It was very exciting! We are very grateful! <3
