You know how when you’re cruising the web, you’re clicking on links until you chance upon something fun, beautiful or cool?
That’s how I landed on the Ultimate Blog Party 2012 at 5 Minutes for Mom. I can’t remember how I got there but I’m glad I did.
If you’re dropping by from the party, welcome and and thank you for being here.
Would you care for a cup of coffee or hot coco?

I love chocolate. I also love pink.
I am Jayme and I’m thirty years young. I am married to the love of my life and I am mom to two beautiful angels aged five and four. Here’s my little family during a recent trip to Baguio, the summer capital in the northern part of the Philippines.

This was taken at the Mines View Park in Baguio City.
I started this blog as a journal to chronicle the stories of my girls and to share my learning experiences in positive parenting. I imagine one day they will read this blog for parenting advice when they have their own kids. Oh how I love that thought.
I also love being a mom blogger. I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember and I grew to love blogging as much I love journaling.
I’ve been blogging on and off in this space for the past years, mostly because of work. I’ve been intent on becoming a work at home mom and I’m still moving in that direction.
I resigned from my office job last year and I’ve been working freelance ever since. My next goal is to thrive as a WAHM by focusing on what I love doing the most. That’s why I am blogging regularly again and I started a new blog focused on blog building at MomBlogger.net. It’s still under construction and I hope to launch it by May.
Right now, I am doing a series on “Practicing Patience” and I’d love if you could join me.
If you feel so inspired, you can read more about me and this blog here.

Saw your blog through the UBP#12!
Nice to “meet” you! Love your posts! I, too, hope to be a fulltime WAHM someday! Right now, I am a semi-WAHM, reporting to the office 2x a week.
God bless you and your lovely family!
