Hi, I’m Maricel and welcome to my blog!

My blog is a profusion of my journey to mommyhood, bits and pieces of  everything I love, and all things that inspire me.

In 2011, I gave birth to my first child Maia, a special needs child with a seizure disorder. She taught us about unconditional love, patience and the importance of togetherness.  In 2016,  baby Ivor was born, and in 2018 we welcomed our third child, Zeva.

We are looking forward for a wonderful life of faith, love, hope and simplicity.

We are based in Manila, renting a small apartment in Taguig. One of my dreams is to have our own house someday, God-willing.

I hope you enjoy & thanks for dropping by!

Best,

Maricel

  20. ~Photocrossing project~

    Dear cel,

    My name is Christa, I’m the Dutch author of the blog http://www.lilycatherine.wordpress.com. On my tiny part of the world wide web I share everything I love concerning photography, music and lifestyle.

    “Altering life by holding it still”

    Right now I’m working on this project called Photocrossing. The project found its origin in pure curiosity for the rest of this world. I honestly believe that every place on this planet has its own beauty. Sometimes we tend to forget about it however, since unique environments become normal for its inhabitants over time.

    “Exploring this world photo by photo”

    The idea behind this project is that we start to appreciate our own environment, by sharing the most beautiful or interesting photographs we have of it. We are hundreds of kilometers away from each other, it’s a whole different world! Two bloggers take a photograph in their own environment, after which they exchange these photographs in order to explore the world bit by bit. (You could also join with a photograph taken at a place you really love, it doesn’t have to be close to your home!) These photographs could be taken at any place. Whether you’d like to show me your garden, the road you travel every day, a city, or that beautiful sunset photograph taken a few miles away; anything is possible as long as the photograph defines your environment! After this we post each other’s photograph together with a brief description of the photo as well as the project.

    I’ve been following your blog for some time now and I’d love to work with you on this project! Let me know whether you’re interested, I can’t wait to exchange photographs!

    Kind Regards,
    Christa

      1. I am very jealous – I hope my own children are so adorable! But judging from your Blog she is also very lucky to have such a thoughtful Mum as you – I hope I can be as dedicated when I eventually have children!
