This Mommy Has Been Winning!

by Cecile Cinco

Finally, after a loooooong while trying and trying, with everyone else always ending up the winners, I was surprised by an email saying I was the one who won a contest for $25. I promised to brag about it because it was a late announcement. It was the first in 2012 anyway so I’m really glad and thankful because I really needed it.  Continue reading

Where To Possibly Get $40 and $50

by Cecile Cinco

I have never known any mom who does not need money. It used to be that all moms are at home and the dad are out to work a living.

Seize The Moment

by Cecile Cinco

While I have other blogs about my motherhood journey, this is the first blog that I have intended for everything, or almost everything, about being a mom. The life of a mom and everything that connects to being one.

I was not intending to update this soon but an opportunity rose up that made me decide to seize the moment (or lose the chance sooner than later). If you will notice the very first post (which is the standard post that came with installing WP for the first time), it has been several months ago. Actually, it was last year! Continue reading
