Today's post is more of a reflection than anything else. Throughout our lives, we do things, we live matters and see people coming and going.  These experiences make us who we are today. Our society is always expecting more and more, and frustration are common. Every person has so many different roles... you are a daughter/son, wife/husband, friend, professional, etc.... but who are you, really, for sure? Who am I? Do you really know?  For me, life has been a rollercoaster but an amazing and beautiful journey.  So why not share with the world? I am a very discreet and not share my whole life kind of person... even a bit an introvert. However, I think its time for me to open a bit and that way to share a bit about myself to you guys.

Once my little one started to grow up a

Once before the naptime the other just before going to sleep. I know... getting him used to this will make me have to do it for a very long time... but I am not concerned. Reading is good in so many areas. Helps develop speech and language, helps develop the brain and the ability of thinking by himself, develops creativity and above all is an amazing way for us to cuddle and bounding. Other strategies include: a) Reading next to him while he plays at his gym; b) Alway
