Just like any parent, I get a lot of advice and inputs on how to parent my children. Some asked, some unasked. As a young mom, it is true that I need to learn how to discipline kids, what to feed them, how to potty train, and a whole list of "how-to's". And then I do …

Breaking the Long Silence
Six months away from blogging is a long time! Finally, I decided to get back to it. It already feels good to be back at my desk drafting my blog post after all these weeks! Ok, I have to admit that last sentence was a bit of an overstatement. The truth is, I have been …

Welcome to my new blog!
