Note from my Man!

My husband don't normally give me any love letters of any kind like most typical men.  Today, while cleaning up my desk I saw a napkin with writings on it.  He gave me this awhile ago and didn't pay attention to it and put it in my "procrastination file box". 

I would say "Mr. Clinton :-)" is not only a husband to me and a dad for my children his always been my cheer leader, my accountant, my driver, my mentor and my bestfriend... So proud of him!

Here's the piece that he wrote for me that I dont even bother to read until now... (Dont know if he copied it from somewhere or not but it serves the purpose).

Please read! This piece could be helpful and an eye opening for you too...

YOU LIVE HOW YOU FEEL

EVERYTHING HAS A HAPPY HOME (FOR CLEANING UP!)

I NEVER LET PEOPLE WALK THROUGH MY MIND WITH DIRTY FEET

WHETHER YOU THINK YOU CAN OR CAN'T YOUR ALWAYS RIGHT!

QUESTIONS ARE THE ANSWER YOUR LOOKING FOR

HELPFUL QUESTIONS LEAD TO HELPFUL ANSWERS

HARMFUL QUESTIONS LEAD TO HARMFUL ANSWERS

YOU GET WHAT YOU FOCUS ON

RIGHT IS HELPFUL TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS

WRONG IS HURTFUL TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS

YOU CANNOT CHANGE THE WORLD, YOU CAN ONLY CHANGE YOUR REACTION TO THE WORLD!

SEE A NEED, FILL A NEED!

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS FAILURE... ONLY EXPERIENCE.

THE MIND IS EVERYTHING, WHAT YOU THINK... YOU BECOME..

REPITITION IS THE MOTHER OF SKILL...

I always believe in myself but there are times I need someone to remind me of  how much I worth... Give love always and appreciate life ... dont worry about the past, its history... always move forward even if you dont feel like it... forgive yourself and the people that hurt your feelings. Give them Thanks! because if not from the experience they gave you, you  will never see life as best as you see it now!

Back to School! Back to work!

May 2nd 2011

So, our two, first graders are back to school.  We didn't get up till 8:15 this morning I was so tired and wanted to sleep in for few more minutes. Both my husband and my alarm went off so many times it was so funny because we kept  hitting the snooze bottons at the same time and finally I have to get up before everybody get late to school and we have a 10:00 appointment with the webdevelopers for our new project.  The kids school is just litterally 2 minutes away from home but sometimes we are still late lol... We tried not to be late but sometimes being this dang mentality of "the school is just two minutes away" got me!

Our Monday went well, after I dropped off the kids we went to our apppointment and I was really impressed with our webguy. I wish I could pick his brain and learn something from him.  Today was my first time to go to his office and I was WOWed inside the building there was  a mini golf course.  Next time I come I will take some pictures to share here. 

After an hour meeting we went home and get some breakfast.  And started my day running errands without "Mr. Clinton" (Jimmy) we normally do Monday errands together but today I decided to go alone so we can get more things done separately while his doing his work at home. 

The advantage of owning your own business is that you get to choose your own hours of when to do things.  Which what I love the most.  I dont like too much fixed  hours I have a hard time seating still and not doing things when I needed to.  I have list of priorities everyday on my desk so I can make sure Im on track...   I schedule things around my kids and family's schedule not with my work schedule which is pretty good to have.

Anyway, we wrapped up the day with a really good present a new addition to the family.  Kids were so exited to come home so we can pick up our new puppy.  Grandma and the kids have been wanting to have a dog and so we finally have one. 

Meet Danny our newest addition to the family his 12 weeks old Shih Tzu.

Kids were so helpful and so loving taking  Danny out to go potty in the backward. 

Dad assigned a spot and told the kids that, thats where they are taking the dog everytime he go potty and the kids are amazingly obeying their Dad.

Spring Break no more!

May 1st 2011

The two weeks of Spring Break finally over.  My two first graders are back to school tomorrow.  They been busy with playdates with friends and hanging around with Mom, Dad and Grandma.  This year we didn't do anything spectacular for Spring break.  James had his one week soccer camp and he loved it so will probably have him play for the regular soccer game season.  Victoria, was busy with her friends as well.  Tonight, is the first night of school day so they both having hard time to sleep. They're normally in bed by 8:00-8:30 but during the break we been sleeping late 'till 11pm watching movies or going out with friends.  Hopefully, they both feeling refresh tomorrow morning for school.

Will post some pictures later for the kids activies.

From Charlotte to the Movies

February 21, 2010

Just got back from my company's International Convention in Charlotte, NC.  I been up for more than 24 hours I think. I tried to sleep on the plane but I just can't its really uncomfortable.  We had a real good time in Charlotte.  After the Convention we decided to stay to celebrate our dear friend's birthday.  So we went out bowling, although I dont drink and I dont know how to play bowling  that much I still had a good time spending quality time with great friends and business partners.

As a present for the kids that I miss so much, I got them a matching Company's Shirt.

Victoria is real good in matching her clothes and accesories.

Still had no sleep... but I still manage to watch a movie with the family.

Here's Victoria posing next to Justine B...

And here's James with Kung Fu Panda :-)

Overall, no regrets even if I stayed up over 24 hours... spending quality time with love ones is priceless.
