Mabuhay!

What does a thirty-something, Filipino born and bred, who just had her first child, have to possibly add to the world of "mommy-blogging" that hasn't been asked, addressed, redressed, or inspired? I'm asking myself those same questions. First off, I thought of the name of the blog and thought it was pretty cool. Second, I want to be able to do what other mommy blogs do. I want to inspire, inform, share, humor, whine about my kid, whine about my husband, or just whine. Hopefully, I can accomplish one of those things. The whining, I'm sure will come naturally, the rest, wish me luck. More importantly, I want to do it from the perspective of a Filipina, who is married to a caucasian, raised mostly in the United States (since the age of 4), product of divorced parents, is a cool "Ate" (so I like to think, but I'm sure my sister would state otherwise), currently a SAHM (that's "stay-at-home-mom" for ya'll), who left the highfalutin world of finance, to pursue her dream of writing about food and travel (which I do here), and now finds herself, entering the madness of mommy-blogging.

I'm sure I'm bound to offend someone (yeah, that includes you my friends and family). But what can you expect when sharing publicly, your thoughts, opinions, views about raising a family--especially a biracial one. So please join me as I explore topics relating to pregnancy, motherhood, life in general, being a Filipino mom, and all the stuff in-between.
