2025 Vacation Bible School-Live It Out Now ( Momimhar posted on June 23rd, 2025 )

One of the things I love whenever summer comes is the VBS or Vacation Bible School. As far as I can remember, I have attended VBS when I was in 2nd Grade in the Philippines. I also remember not many children attended the VBS in my neighborhood. So it was quite a very close interaction with the volunteer teachers and a very thorough Bible lessons. We even got awards when the VBS concluded. It was a very fun and happy experience for me. During those times, I began to develop the understanding of faith in the Almighty.

Four years ago, I registered my child to attend the VBS in my area. And at the same time, I registered to volunteer to serve. Although there are several assignments, I chose to serve as one of the teachers in one of the Kindergarten classes. Volunteers had to do and pass a highly important online training regarding child’s safety. Gladly I passed it. The VBS in my area is huge so the need of volunteers and training them was vital to it’s success.

VBS theme varies every year. This year, it’s a Team Spirit theme. It’s like a pep rally when it’s Big Group time. Songs of praise, instrumentals, and Bible lesson review are done in Big Group gathering.

VBS is fun and educational. The youth will not only enjoy the age-appropriate activities organized for them, but also they will learn a lot about Jesus and being a good person.

Check For This Safety Feature When Buying A Car ( Momimhar posted on September 26th, 2017 )

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are my own.

As a car owner, one of the most important to me is the safety of my vehicle every time my family and I travel. It is not just something to compromise.  Car safety is a MUST.  I take it seriously.  Besides, my life here in the USA is not complete without a car.  It is one of the necessities to get around.  And car shopping requires patience and a little know-how.  Recommendations from family or friends should be taken into consideration because they can help with the decision-making in the long run.

Most people just look at car brands when buying one.  They don’t take the time to look at the features and mileage capacity.  All they think of is how they will look when they are driving an expensive car.  I am not about that. I am about economic and safety features. So what car safety feature should we check for when buying a car?

When my husband bought my car, he sought recommendations from immediate families and he checked ratings and reviews on the Internet.  He compared features and prices as well.  One of the main concerns when buying a car is the Latch System in the back passenger seats. The Latch System consists usually consists of two sets of lower Latch anchors and three top tether anchors which you will find between the back and bottom seat cushions in the back passenger seats. If you don’t know about it, you may check it out in your car now.  It is in compliance with the federal government law requiring cars manufactured after Sept. 1, 2002 to have a Latch System.

Under the seat cushions metal latches. Your car’s back seats should have four of these.

With this Latch System, you child’s car seats or booster seats will be completely secured.  I recommend to go to your nearest Fire or Police Department for proper car seat installation.  This way, you are confident.  And to prolong the life of your car and your precious passengers, drive safely.

Birthday Pool Party ( Momimhar posted on July 15th, 2017 )

Pool, balloons, party

There are a lot of fun things going on this summer vacation.  Besides swimming classes for darling daughter, birthday parties and special event invitations are keep coming in.

Yesterday, DD got invited to a birthday pool party.  It was not a Luau Party. Just a typical kids pool party.  Darling daughter enjoyed it very much. As you know, she likes swimming.  My dear friends and I watched over the young ones because the pool was quite deep.  That is why wearing a life preserver is very important even in a shallow pool.  Age-appropriate and US Coast Guard approved life jackets should always be handy, and adult supervision is advised on young children.

Friends, happy kids, birthday party

As for the party, my dear friends and I had fun catching up while the kids were swimming in the pool.  This is the very first time K and I went to a pool party.  There were lots of food and we met new friends. It was awesome.

Setting Up The Pool ( Momimhar posted on April 7th, 2016 )

As warm weather approaches, you might begin to think about ways to keep the kids busy when they’re out of school or ways for the family to spend time together. A pool is the ideal type of entertainment, and you can often find pools that are easy to install and set up in the yard. If you’re looking for ways to save money, then consider wholesale pool pumps and filters. These are sometimes sold in multiples, so it’s best to find someone else who is going to set up a pool so that you can get the best deal possible by splitting the cost of the supplies.

Before you set up a pool, you need to find out if there are any limitations on the size, especially if you live in the city. Your local zoning office can give you the details that you need when it comes to where you can put your pool and if you need to stay within any restraints when it comes to the size or design.

Think about the depth of the pool. Your filter and pump will usually work depending on the amount of water that is in the pool, so if you find something that is a larger size, then your equipment might work overtime compared to getting something a little smaller. You also need to think about children and the depth of the water that will be safe for them.

Find a proper location in the yard for the pool. Make sure it’s flat, and place a plastic tarp under the pool so that there aren’t any sticks of debris that could puncture the lining. An idea is to clear off the area and add sand before placing the tarp. Avoid putting the pool under a tree as you don’t want leaves in the water. When the pool is in place, you can begin filling it with water. After the pool is filled with water, add all of the chemicals that are needed. You can also take this time to add any decorative details as well as the ladder and pump. All of this needs to be in place about 24 to 48 hours before you begin swimming in the water.
