Imelyn Sanchez Make-up Artistry 2014
Growing up with two brothers, I've always wished I had a sister, someone I could share clothes with, borrow makeup from, girl-talk with, laugh with. I was way into my 20s when God granted that little wish, when Ate Imelyn married my brother. This is not the first time I'm ...
One year and one month
How do you blog about your baby's first birthday? I totally missed doing that, and it's weird because I was so sure that I was not going to miss out on blogging about that milestone. I was going to write an open letter to Dawn and Rain. I'd tell them how much they've changed ...

Day 8: You know who I’m really missing right now?
8/30: My family. I think I said this before. :) I just looove this family photo Sheila took of us. Look at Isaac's face! (: Something happened to our family when Daddy passed away. We became more thoughtful than indifferent, more encouraging than critical, more accepting than ...
Take it from me, I turned 27
I've been meaning to post an obligatory birthday blog. It has been a tradition I didn't realize I was doing, documenting my birthday year after year after year since 2003 (and no, I'm not going to link back to my tabulas and blogspot days anymore because the older birthday posts ...
