Want to restore a 40-year-old decoration to its former glory? Try these simple, safe cleaning tricks that won’t damage the finish.

Have you ever seen a decoration your parents kept, carrying it with them from another country or a previous marriage? Carmina realized that parents often hold onto items they've purchased in the past. While browsing Greenhill's shopping center, she stepped into  Mystic Gems by Bensani and saw so many nostalgic items that reminded her of growing up.  I pointed out to Mom Violy that she had a similar crystal tree decoration at home.

Baptism in the Philippines

It has been a long time since I have attended a baptism and become a God Parent at the same time.

What is the preparation before you have your baby's baptism?
  1. Birth Certificate of your daughter/son
  2. Reserve a date of the baptism
  3. Each Godparent there is a fee to pay at the church depends on the parish.
  4. Reserve the venue of the reception
  5. Know who your godparents will be and make sure you know they will be there to give the best guideness to your child as he/she grows up.
In the Philippines people go all out when they plan a baptism they have a banner made up which I was able to design one for her.

They also give our Baptism Party favors as their remembrance on that occasions.

The baptism only took thirty minutes with short prayer, blessing the baby in holy water and lighting the candle.

The process compared to the States is really different compare to the Philippines.

The people don't really dress up for baptism in the Philippines.
