JG had bacterial meningitis before she turned two. I haven’t seen JG and her family since they moved from the inlaws’ rented apartment.

M I think, had the same (not really sure though) when she was still a baby. Up to now, she still takes some medication for her condition. Her condition had effects on her learning.

Both of them have hand grip problems.

JG I am not sure what hand preference has the grip problem but she had difficulty peeling a banana or tying shoe laces or even doing tasks that look quite simple enough. JG is a teenager and has learning problems.

M’s hand grip problem is her left hand, which was fine since she is right-handed. MQ can not open up her left hand properly nor perform tasks using that hand.

I am not sure how these should be addressed. Perhaps with assistive technology yes, assistive technology would definitely help them have some improvements. But this type of intervention still has a long way to go here in the country.

Purchasing a new home means considering a lot of things like the location and accessibility with regards to places like school, workplace and stores as well as security issues in the neighborhood. Of course, the home’s style is also considered along with the different rooms suitable for the members of the family. One of the most important factor to consider before purchasing a home, however, is home warranty. Why home warranty? A home warranty like the American Home Shield is a service contract that basically covers unexpected expenses like repairs to be made on the home within a year of purchasing the property. For a basic home warranty with under 5,000 square feet, the coverage will include services for electrical systems, plumbing, and even repair of several electrical appliances when these break down. Additional fee is required for those bigger homes over 5,000 square feet. Considering that the homeowner would be able to avoid extra costs in protecting the home from breakdown is a good move with home warranty.

Termites are one of a home owner’s worst nightmares. Why? Termites are pests that can cause serious structural damage to homes, and even crops.

The home owner may even qualify to get the Termite Inspection and Protection Plan which is an affordable plan backed with a lifetime damage guarantee.

Who wants to have a beautifully landscaped lush lawn? Everyone does. Who wants to have a lawn full of weeds? No one does. Who would want weeds?

Weed control is essential to maintain a landscaped environment. Who would better qualify to do the landscaping job but professionals like TruGreen LandCare?.

First we participated in the “Salubong”, meaning the act of meeting someone arriving, or the Easter Vigil, wherein Mary (represented by a statue) will meet her son, the Risen Lord. This procession culminated at the University of the Philippines in Diliman’s Sunken Garden. A mass followed suit after the traditional reenactment of Mary and Jesus meeting where Mary’s black veil removed by an angel.

I was not able to take good photos since we were far from where the action was happening and my camera is not equipped to take photos in the dark, at a considerable distance. Anyway, here are some bits and pieces of photos that I was able to take:

During the Mass when people were listening to the homily.

After the mass when participants started to go their own ways.

Breakfast essentials which my hubby prepared in the green bag and blue basket. He brought our containers of milk and cereals (for the kids), coffee, cream and sugar for us both, and bread, peanut butter and blueberry preserves. Oh, and the thermos for hot water.

Have a great Easter Sunday everyone and remember that Jesus reigns and lives.

Read some thoughts about Easter here, if you have time. Thank you.
