A classic chandelier, whether to place at the shop or not


Help..I must be insane right now, cause I don't know what to do with this classic chandelier. It only sells for 800php from a surplus store at the neighborhood and it is still working. It will add a little class on my coffee shop but I don't think that it will fits the other Capiz lightings that i bought at Quiapo underpass handicrafts store. So I'm confused, think, think, think...wink!

Here comes again..the pianists


So as a follow up of my recent post, here is a picture of Dylan playing his piano. He really loves his toy, bought it for 1700 at a local mall here in our town. Though it is a little bit expensive, but still it can help him excel his talents and interests. So this piano has a different choices of tones like organ, piano, guitar, drums and you can choose whatever you want. It also has recorded nursery rhymes and has a microphone on it- which of course one of his favorites. So I love to see him when he plays it because it really shows how he loves music. Hope this will go farther and he will really had the hunger for music.

Encourage them to be their best!


Dylan is a very passionate baby when it comes to music. He loves to play his kuya's (cousin kieth) guitar and sing with it. He always shows interests in music and musical instruments. Hubby and I were not good at singing- but my mom is a choir member on her early days and hubby's dad is a videoke master. So we conclude that it runs in the genes, though it passes on us but music don't work on ours, hehe. It's just Dylan who has it in his genes. Whenever he hears a song or hears someone singing, he really shows interests and join them singing or dance with the melody. He is also interest in dancing, esp dance number in showtime (a show in tv). He even knows the songs in commercials and of course he is very interest whenever he sees our church pianist do his mastering. Even hubby and I doesn't have the talent, we want him to be developed as a music lover and we planned late this year or early next year to enroll him in a music school. After all it is really worth the money and effort we spend on his talent and encouragement is the best thing we can do.
