When I knew the theme for today’s Mommy Moments, I decided to skip again. Because the truth is, neither I nor my husband have any material thing which I can pass to our daughter or to our future son (we are still praying for a son). We both came from a non well-to-do family. If the Lord will enable us to send our kids to college and He will permit them to get a degree, that is the only thing we can give to them. But I realized that though my husband and I lack material things to give to our kids, we still have something to leave them, and that is our faith in God. Though we cannot force them our belief, we can teach them the doctrines of the Bible and we can influence them through our testimonies to follow the same decision we made when we accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as our Lord and personal Saviour. I think that is the only and best heritage we can leave them.
So how about you? What is that something that you want to give your kids? Why don’t you hop to The Mommy Journey and play with us.
The theme of Mommy Moments for this week is about our favorite photos of our kids. Play with us this Friday and link up at Mommy Moments by clicking the button above.
Here are my current favorites. I’ve already shared some of them few weeks ago.
Most kids love parks and my daughter is not exempted. She prefers park visits than malling and that is advantageous for me because visiting a park is way less expensive than malling.
Before, we had an easy access to a park or should I say, a playground? There was a nearby children’s park in our place before. But it didn’t last for so long. As if it was built to be destroyed. It was just left to the use of the public without someone who would ensure that the facilities were properly used. Also, the most users didn’t bother to use with care. In result, we have a children’s park that is not safe for children’s use. Ironic eh?
Now, whenever my daughter wants to go to the park, we go Quezon City Memorial Circle. This is the nearest free decent park in our place. Thanks to Honorable Sonny Belmonte for developing the park to be a more child-friendly park.
These photos were taken during our last visit to the park few weeks ago.
This was taken on the newly painted open area of the park. See the blue floor for Blue Monday?
She seldom likes to use the swing by herself.
She’s not too happy, isn’t? Yellow tube slide for Mellow Yellow Monday
Across Quezon City Memorial Circle is Quezon City Parks and Wild Life. We also visit the place if we are still early.
This was her photo during our last visit

My daughter is a ride fanatic! Whether on real cars and motorbikes or amusement parks rides, it will be surely a hit for her. But I realized that I don’t have much photo of her while riding. Maybe because it is no longer a big deal for us when she rides. That or we are not camera ready most of the time. If you think we have so much money to spend on rides, you are wrong 
We only bring her to cheap rides. The maximum fee of the ride should not exceed ten pesos, LOL. The rides in Walter Mart and QC Memorial circle (outside Circle of Fun) fit that price (only 5 pesos per token) so those places are our usual destination. With only fifty pesos ($1) she can already enjoy so many rides. Fun should not need to be expensive 
I also want to bring her to Enchanted Kingdom but I think I still have to wait for a year or two. I don’t think she’ll enjoy most of the rides right now and of course, our current financial situation will not also allow us to bring her there
So here are her ride photos.
Car rides at Walter Mart North Edsa
Trinoma Animal Ride. It seems that Daddy is the one enjoying
Time Zone’s Kiddie Rides
QC Circle of Fun Carousel
One thing I admire with my daughter is that she’s not afraid to try the rides unlike her mommy. Do your kids love amusement centers rides? Share with us at Mommy Moments.

My daughter loves bags, especially the pink ones and the Dora the Explorer bags. Even a Dora paper bag will surely be a hit for her. I remember one time, someone gave her something on a Dora paper bag. She received the paper bag, uttered a thanks then placed the Dora bag on her shoulder, walked here and there as if modeling the bag. She didn’t care whatever inside the paper bag, she was only after the Dora paper bag. I had a good laugh that time.
I couldn’t buy her a Dora bag until recently. This is because either the bag is too big for her or the price is so unreasonable for a bag. So when I found a Dora bag that was big enough for her and would not hurt my pocket, I immediately bought the bag. She immediately tried it when she saw it. This became her official bag whenever we left the house.
Aside from her Dora back pack, she is using an official school bag. She wants a stroller bag, but we (my husband and I) think that she don’t need it yet. Most of her books and notebooks were left in her classroom except on a Friday so she don’t need a big bag yet. Another reason is that she seldom walks from our house to her school and vice versa by herself. You guess it right! She always asks her father to carry her. Hubby is her official school service, LOL! It would be very inconvenient to carry her while pulling a stroller, right? So her official school bag is blue shoulder bag given to her by one of her Ninangs, few months ago.
And if she feels like to be kikay, this is the bag she uses.
What is your kids’ favorite bag? Share with us at Mommy Moments.
