Back when I was in grade 1, I remember my mom giving me P1 everyday for my school pocket money aside from the usual baon that she prepares for me. P1 seemed so big amount already that time, besides, I had a school service to pick me up so there’s no need for extra money for that.
My 5 y/o daughter is now in grade 1 but I have never given her any pocket money since the school has started. I just feel it’s not appropriate. Not just yet. She’s got everything with her anyway. She has her snacks and lunch pack. My mom goes with her to school with the school service so even if she wants something from the convenient store, my mom is there to look after the items that are to go through a barcode scanner.
Maybe when she’s ready to go to school alone, all by herself, I will slowly introduce her the value of of money, literally.

I am happy to share my adventures as I walk through motherhood and have to do most things on my own while my husband works miles away from us. Turning my passion into a profitable venture is another thing.
Authoring and managing this personal blog developed my social media awareness over the years.
From being an ex-OFW to doing what I am good at in the comfort of my own home – while taking good care of my 3 wonderful kids, I hope that people see me as a great inspiration when it comes to pursuing my passion and turning it into a profitable venture.
A giant leap like this is such a challenging journey but indeed is rewarding. A few bumps along this whole journey did not stop me from being the best version of myself.
