Picky eaters
Lots of childrens are picky eaters. And it is very difficult for a parent to deal with this kind of scenario. That when you try to give them a healthy and balanced diet and you will get a no-no shake of head and will tell you that they know what they want to eat and for you it’s a big guess.
Toddlers can become picky eaters for some reasons. Some are naturally senstive to taste, smell and texture. Others children develop picky eating habits by modeling their parents fussy eating habits. Theoretically, picky eating habits develop when parents punish, bribe or rewards their childrens behavior. Parents must plan on what is the best way to get rid of the picky eating habits of their toddlers.
When childrens are picky eaters, sometimes it is a response to controlling or pushy parents or to bribery. The battle over food can lead to resistance and defiance from the child. Ultimately, it child’s decision as to what to eat and not to eat the foods you have provided. Sometimes the toddler may eat very little or nothing at all, but they will make up the nutrition later that day or later in the week.

Some parents worry because their childs have imaginary friends that their child play interactively with no one and nothing that perhaps something are not normal. Some people find it unusual, but the truth is two-thirds of toddler have imaginary friends and this is healthy behavior at some point. And this is normal part of growing up.
One of the reasons why child have this what we called imaginary friends is because , it help build the child’s sense of security and comfort and a chance to exhibit confidence and bravery. And also imaginary friends provide companionship that’s not available always from real friends.
So instead of worrying to your child’s imaginary friends, think of the reward, and help your child reap the benefits of welcoming friends into their life.
So, who’s your imaginary friend?

Happiness of Being a Mother
There is no question about it; true happiness of a woman begins when she becomes a Mother. It is when you’ll feel miracle that there is a little creature in your womb waiting for his time to see the world…magical it may seem. But once you held the baby in your arms a feeling of excitement, joy and fulfillment is there.
You look at your baby from head to toe, checking if everything is OK with him, if it is possible to count the hair on his head you would. You will check his fingers, his toes, his face and when you found out that everything’s fine tears will fall from your eyes…AT LAST! After all the pains and sufferings, you will say…IT IS ALL WORTH IT!
A Mother will always have a special bond with their child; it is a link that can never be broken. As time pass by, you will always be there to watch your child grow, from the first step, first food he eats, and when you hear the first word he utter it sounded like music, it seems like an angel whispered to your ears. And afterward it’s time to bring your child to school, 1st day of school is a nerve racking experience for a 1st time MOM, as much as possible you wanted to stay and to wait for your son, checking on him if his doing alright. You’ll guide him on his assignments, and school projects, you will review him on his 1st examination, you’ll notice your child was not that serious about it, you’ll have doubts, fears, questioning yourself did he get what I just told him…
EXAMINATION DAY arrives, the mother is the one who is so nervous about it, the child arrives home you will ask him “so what happened, was it easy?” “Did you answer everything”, but the only answer you will get from your child was a smile on his face.
End of school year is drawing near and as a Mother you would like to know what are your child’s achievements or are there any areas that needs improvement…there is always a parent-teacher meeting at school and from there they will tell you the performance of your child and once you have known that your son is a part of the TOP STUDENTS in his class… an unexplained feeling will embrace you, you wanted to cry, and at the same time you wanted to scream and tell the whole world that my son is in the Honors list. I’m a 1st time MOM myself and happiness of being a MOTHER is endless…trust me it never end.

Toddler Putting Shirt By Himself
I was going to blog about this information about my eldest son, Matt, a few days ago, but I just keep on procrastinating.. So finally, while watching Survivor Philippines Palau Day 35, I sat down at my company issued Dell D630 laptop and will write about it.
<!–more–>
But there’s really nothing to write about really. It’s all about my son, putting his shirt on all by himself. That’s a new milestone on being a toddler. I remember my first post (or one of the first) about his achievement in Everything Daddy blog, him reading ABC – Alphabet (in random order) or singing the Alphabet song. Now, he’s able to put his shirt on
