Chesska's 9th Birthday in a Unicorn Theme + Some Stories

My first-born daughter, Chesska, just turned 9 years old a couple of months ago. I almost forgot to blog about this as I couldn't do blogging and vlogging at the same time due to busyness. 😁 However, I prefer to vlog right now because blogging is not as lucrative as vlogging based on what I've read online. And also based on my experience with blogging, it's even difficult to earn $5 dollars per month unless you have a hundred of thousands views per month. But my main purpose for blogging is not only to earn money but to document my experience as a mother, my personal life, and my children's milestone. It's also my outlet to express my opinion and feelings in whatever situations that may arise. 

Anyway, back to Chesska's 9th birthday. 

Every time my children celebrated their birthdays, I always posted it here because I want to have a remembrance of them. I also wanted to make a post about what we did during this pandemic. Aside from that, whenever I got bored, I just opened my blog and read my post again. It made me happy instantly while looking at their pictures at how much they have grown. 

Obviously, we chose Unicorn theme decorations as this is Chesska's favorite toy. Well, who doesn't like unicorns? It's super cute.  If I had to be a little kid again, I would have chosen this kind of decoration. 



Nothing so fancy about the celebration, it was just a simple one. Though the decorations look extravagant, I'll tell you, it was very cheap since we just used crepe papers as a backdrop. It at least eased the mental boredom of my children during this pandemic. We all know how this pandemic has affected the children so much especially that they are not still allowed to go outside. 

As you can see, our "handa" was so simple. I don't want to prepare too many foods that will eventually get spoiled. Many people are jobless right now and I am sure they can hardly sustain their family needs especially food. I just wanted to be sensitive to their situations during this time of crisis. 



Since we are not allowed to invite many visitors as per city's COVID-19 guidelines (of course we don't want to get infected with the viruses), we just invited Chesska's cousin and his family. Chesska, Psalm, and Geero (cousin) haven't seen each other since the pandemic began so they just kept playing and made some "kwentuhan" all day after eating. 

I am hopeful that this year will be our breakthrough. With the arrival of the vaccines, I think, this will change the situation for good. Let's just keep on praying to the ONE who is in control. In Him, everything is possible.
