October 12, 2017 By Tammy Leave a Comment

All Saints Day – Our Fireball and his Namesake

November 1, 2015 By Tammy Leave a Comment

Happy All Saints Day from the littlest one (who is sort of dressed like the Saint he was named after. Sort of.) Our little one has a costume that sparked a bit of a reaction from some people. A typical Halloween get-up of a creature of the underworld, he looked Oh-so-cute in his fireball costume […]

Raya Education

January 26, 2015 By Tammy Leave a Comment

A few years before I met my husband (and therefore, way before I had J or I), I encountered a small school in Quezon City and knew that it was where I hoped my children would study. (You can read about how I fell head over heels in love with the school over here: https://www.thespiralsun.com/the-raya-school/) I […]
