The yellow rose in my garden is doing really great this year. Do you want to know my secret?..... Coffee Grounds.... Instead of throwing away the coffee ground at your coffee maker, save it and put it in your flower garden, it makes a good fertilizer.
Another good fertilizer is our dog's poop (opps sowi).. But it's true, I always bury them in my flower garden.
Thanks for following guys, will follow you back tomorrow. Gotta hit the bed now.
If you are wondering what's keeping me busy these days, this is it, teaching my kids some educational stuff like writing, spelling, and reading. Due to my addiction (blogging) I neglected to really focus on teaching my daughter with stuff that she need to learn like reading. But I promised myself that I really need to lie low on blogging and focus on teaching my daughter before she started going to school next month. She will be starting by mid-August.
For yesterday's activity, I refreshed her skill in writing her name. She knows how to write it but she prefers to write it in big or capital letters. This time, I taught her how to write using the notebook with lines and the proper way of using the capital and small/lower case letters.
Below are the activities that we did today. We reviewed what she've learned yesterday and I taught her the spelling of the colors and how to read them. My goal for this month is for her to learn how to read words, I hope that she would be able to do it.
I am impressed of her progress because she really want to learn how to read. She doesn't complain even if sometimes I am so hard on her. Sorry anak, I just want to you to learn how to read before you start school, but I believe that you can do it.
Then during the break, I treat them with snow cones. We used the snow cone maker that Titas Chris and Gail gave for her birthday. Thanks Tita!
Here's a short video that I recorded this afternoon.
Lately, my daughter is getting obsessed with going for a jog with her Dad. One time, they jog around the neighborhood and went at the back of the church where there's a big football field and saw a herd of deer. So when we were driving home from Dad's, hubby decided to drive by there to see if there are deer in the field. Sure enough, there were four of them in there munching on the grass. They also did not mind us watching them.
Good morning folks, happy 4th of July. The photos below were taken during the Father's day celebration. We chose to give my FIL a flag to replace the old one in his front yard. We really didn't know what to give him until we passed by at the flag aisle in KMart and I told my husband, that's it! He does need a new flag as he was planning to buy a new and we beat him to it lol. Glad he like it!
Here's my Dad, Dave (my BIL), EJ & Rye, and hubby helping each other to put the new flag.
I read on one of the blog I visited that the 4th of July is being celebrated as the Philippine-American Friendship day in the Philippines to commemorate the liberation of the Philippines from the Japanese invasion through the help of the American team led by Mc. Arthur. He is a one big hero to the Filippinos! Independence day in the Philippines is celebrated in June 12.
Thanks for visiting folks and have a great Sunday.
