A year ago, I created this page with a mission. It was Songkran season at that time.
… a mission to help parents thrive in their “parenthood” but then again… life challenges happened and I took a BIG pause.
Upon reflection and contemplation I have to continue my mission with a bigger cause because I have bigger God.
And now, Songkran Season again! Here’s a sneak peak of how our Songkran break went :)
Celebrating my 1st year on Facebook. Thank you for your continuing support. I could never have made it without you. 🙏🤗🎉

Jollibee Toy Story
Habang naglalaro kami ng Jollibee cards, sabi ko,
“Oh ayan si Hetti! Tapos si Popo oh!”
Napatingin si husband sabay tanong:
“Bakit alam mo lahat ng pangalan nila?”
At boom—nag-flashback!
Naalala ko nung bata pa ako, meron akong complete set ng Jollibee character pillows. Yung mga cute na pillows na pag-zi-nipper mo, nagiging character plush toy!
Si Jollibee, Hetti, Popo, Twirlie, at Yum—kompleto ako! Binili lahat ni Mama para sa’kin.
Kayo ba, naabutan niyo yun?
Ngayon, full circle moment. Ako naman ang naglalaro kasama ng mga anak ko.
At itong simpleng Jollibee cards, hindi lang pala basta laro—bonding time na, at ang dami pa naming natututunan as a family.
Si Elj natututo ng:
• Joint Attention
Mahirap talagang makuha ang focus ng toddlers. 4 years old pa lang siya, kaya normal lang. Pero dahil sa game, natututo siyang magbigay ng attention sa isang bagay at maki-connect.
• Losing Gracefully
Hirap siyang matalo—nagagalit, nafi-frustrate. Pero tinuturuan namin siya how to manage his feelings. Yung marunong magsabi ng “Good game!” or “Let’s play again!” or “Wow, you win!”
Slowly, natututunan niya na okay lang matalo.
• Turn Taking
Isa pa to! Ang hirap sa toddlers ang sharing. Pero dito, natututo siyang maghintay ng turn, magbigay, at makinig. Basic social skills na super important.
Pero higit sa lahat, we’re teaching him na ang paglalaro ay para mag-enjoy.
Sidenote lang:
Since we are OFW based here inThailand… at wala pong Jollibee dito. Kaya tuwing naglalaro kami nito—grabe talaga ang craving ko sa Chickenjoy at Yumburger!
Ayayayyy gutom is real!
Beke nemen, Jollibee?

🩺 Early Intervention: Nakakatulong ba ito?
Yes! Early intervention is very important at malaking tulong ito sa development ng bata. Pero importanteng linawin:
✅ Maaaring bumuti o ma-improve ang development, lalo na kung maagang natukoy at naibigay ang therapy (ABA, speech, occupational, physical, etc.).
❌ Pero hindi ibig sabihin na “mawawala” agad ang GDD.
Some children may eventually “catch up” with their peers, pero may ilan na magpapatuloy ang delays at maaaring ma-diagnose later on with a specific developmental disorder, gaya ng:
• Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
• Intellectual Disability
• Learning Disabilities
⸻
🔑 Takeaway:
• Early diagnosis + consistent therapy = mas malaking chance na mag-improve.
• Pero ang prognosis ay depende sa sanhi ng GDD at kung gaano ka-severe ang delays.
• Hindi ito “laging nawawala,” pero maraming bata ang gumagawa ng significant progress kung maagapan.

🔍 Sanhi ng GDD
Puwedeng dahil sa iba’t ibang factors gaya ng:
• Genetic conditions (e.g., Down syndrome)
• Prematurity
• Complications sa pagbubuntis o panganganak
• Neurological issues (e.g., cerebral palsy)
• Environmental factors (e.g., neglect, poor nutrition)
27/05/2025
🌟 Explanation:
• Ang GDD ay diagnosis na ginagamit lang sa mga batang edad 0–5 years old.
• Kapag tumuntong na ang bata sa 6 years old, at may delay pa rin sa development, kailangan na itong palitan ng mas specific na diagnosis, gaya ng:
• Intellectual Disability (ID)
• Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
• Learning Disorder
• Speech or Language Disorder
• ADHD
• Or iba pang neurological/developmental condition💡 Bakit?
• Kasi sa edad na 6, mas kaya nang sukatin ng mas tiyak ang cognitive functioning ng bata (gamit ang standardized tests).
• Sa edad na ito, mas malinaw na rin kung anong aspeto ng development ang pinaka-apektado, kaya mas naaangkop na ang mas specific na diagnosis.
⸻
✅ Example:
• 3 years old: diagnosed with GDD (delayed sa speech at motor skills)
• 6 years old: after reassessment, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder or Mild Intellectual Disability, depende sa findings
⸻
🔑 Takeaway:
👉 GDD is a temporary or early childhood diagnosis.
Kapag 5 years old pataas na ang bata, kailangan na ng reassessment para malaman kung ano na ang permanent or long-term diagnosis.
27/05/2025
Global Developmental Delay (GDD) ay isang kondisyon kung saan ang isang bata ay may significant delay sa dalawa o higit pang development areas tulad ng:
• Motor skills (paglakad, paghawak)
• Speech and language
• Cognitive skills (pag-iisip, problem solving)
• Social and emotional skills
• Daily living skills (pagkain, pagsusuot ng damit, etc.)
Common signs ng GDD:
• Late mag-crawl, umupo, tumayo, o maglakad
• Hindi pa rin nagsasalita o kaunti lang ang salita for their age
• Hirap sa pakikisalamuha sa ibang tao
• Limited o repetitive play behavior

2000 Thb = 3,400Php
My son asked for 2,000 Thb and I was shocked when I asked him “WHY?”
Truly, kids learn from what they see not always from what we tell them.
