• Don't Let Go!

  Today was Adele’s swimming class.  It’s her first time swimming since our trip to Cuba.  Naturally, she was a little nervous when she went into the pool.  In one instance, we had to lay the toddlers on their backs to do back floats.  So, I tried laying Adele down and she started squirming and screaming,…

• Family Trip to Cayo Coco, Cuba – Part 1 of 3

  On January 28, 2011, we headed to Cayo Coco, Cuba for our family trip.  This year, Renee’s father, Johnson, is turning 60 and we (the kids) decided to treat him and Renee’s mom, Anita, to a trip down south.  It’s our first time going to the Caribbean; so, naturally, we were really excited. We started…

• First Time Latin Dancing

  Tonight, Renee and I went to a Latin dancing session.  She was invited by her co-worker to this event held by the Toronto Chinese Business Association.  The first half of the session was a networking session, mainly aimed at helping their members meet people for business purposes.  We obviously weren’t there for the networking, but…

• Kids Will Grow Up

  Last night after dinner, Renee and I spent some time with Adele playing with Playdough.  On most weeknights, we try to spend as much time as we can with her before she goes to sleep.  Because she sleeps at around 8:30 pm, we only get to see her for a couple of hours each day.…

• First Time in San Francisco

  I’m in San Francisco right now, on business.  It’s my first time to SF, but I haven’t seen much of it.  The 5 of us arrived Wednesday at 12:20 pm.  Got to the hotel by around 2:00 pm.  There was a World Junior Hockey finals at 7:30 pm EST (4:30 PST) and the crew wanted…

• A Memorable Birthday…at the Emergency Room

  Poor Adele Waiting to be Seen by a Doctor I just turned 32!  I can’t say it’s one of the best birthdays I’ve had, but it’ll definitely go down as one of the most memorable.  The last time I wrote, we were in the emergency room at Scarborough Grace Hospital, because Adele had a fever…

• Visit to the Emergency Room

  It’s been 4 days since Adele has had her fever.  We’ve been giving her Advil and she’s still a little hot at 101 degrees F.  We were going to bring her to the doctor’s in the morning, but she was flopping around in bed during the night.  Afraid that her condition was getting worse or…

• Helplessness

  This December has not been good in terms of health for our family.  I was literally sick for 3 weeks, starting at the end of November.  Then, about 4 days ago, Adele came down with a fever and a cough.  Since this happened over Christmas, there were some mandatory family events that we could not…

• My Blog

  I never knew I liked writing so much!  Maybe I should have taken English literature instead of Mechanical Engineering in school?!  Anyway, I really regret not having started blogging earlier.  In July of 2009, I started The Catholic Investor blog.  Ever since I started seriously investing, I found that I had so many ideas regarding…

• Motherly Love: A Chronicle of Adele's Birth

  To Renee, my daughter’s mother. You are the love of my life and from you comes the second love of my life. And To Susanna, my mother; To Anita, Renee’s mother; Without you, we wouldn’t be here! And To Mary, our heavenly Mother. Without your intercession, I would not be writing this! It’s 12:54 am…
