Hello everyone. It's been Christmas for 3 days already and for those who know me, they can say I love December. I adoooore watching Christmas movies, romantic holiday ones with Christmas trees and kids laughing. This is a time when sharing has to become a reason for waking up.
Even if I am smiling all the time, even if I am the happiest person on earth since I have an 8 month old son that completed my perfect relationship with my hubby, I just cannot forget those in suffering.
I think of those lying in hospitals beds all over the world, many of them dying without anyone around...I think of children being taken away from their families by God, leaving them in tears and pain...and I just cannot stop wondering: why do people die for Christmas? Can't God be merciful? Why cant He wait for at least December to pass? Does He know He kills hope this way?!...
I may sound evil but I am not. I am a believer but I want to see people happy, to see mothers playing with their kids...I don't want to lose hope in God because He forgot about the miracles. ...
Lately I have read all Fitzgerald family's posts, blogs (Facebook - Fitzgerald cancer fond) ...and I feel i lose a small part of my heart every time I read dad's or mum's posts. Their story is so heart-breaking...can u imagine your life without your child/-dren? I can't...:(
I wish this family the best, may their time of pain and suffering be short and may they be stronger with everyday passing by.

Sickness
Hi everyone.
Today is all about sickness. My baby's...
Like all mothers I am always interested my baby gets the best from doctors even if it costs sometimes much more than we can imagine. But, hey, kids are our hearts, our angels. Everything.
Starting thursday my baby started to develop fever, especially in the evening so that you can't sleep as u maybe imagined few hours ago. Yes, I read a lot about kids care, babies are even more likely to become sick for no reasons. But even if u are educated you find yourself in the situation you don't know how to react. I started to medicate the medicine prescribed for fever and I waited. No sign, 1 hour..2 hours...the nite became day. I kinda slept several minutes in hours. But, who cares?
The next day the same story...the following nite the same...
I don't give medicines to my baby immediately or run to the doctor because I have the impression they all have contracts with medicine companies and they prescribe you different types of pills just that they can gain money from it.
Anyway, it is also known it is not always well to medicate fever with antibiotics in kids because of the possibility that they can develop child's sicknesses and you are not allowed to give any pill if this is the case.
But the 3rd day I called his doctor. She came home, prescribed an antibiotic for tummy fever and I kinda relaxed thinking we're on the good path.
Unfortunately, baby had this morning the highest fever till now so I rushed to his paeditrician and told her the whole story. Of course, she prescribed way different medicines and hopefully, Reuben Christian is going to feel better. As I write, he is sleeping. Thank God. He needs it...I need it :)
The moral of the story: wait and see. You need to know facts, to have information for doctors as they prescribe pills for anything if you don't have all the details. Run to emergency if fever grows...no need to wait!
Have a nice week-end!

The story of the fish :)
Hi everyone. Havent written in days because i decided to play and talk more with my son as he is 8 months old and i need to communicate all the beauties of the world. We are watching cartoons like "the story of the 3 little pigs" or "jungle book", we listen christmas carrols, it is such a pleasure to have a baby that understands and responds more.
But beside this, i read, i write and i plan lots of things. I have just read "the story of the fish" by garr reynolds, that wrote "presentation zen" and i need to share it with you. It has a nice moral.
"dear garr,
When you talked about cutting text that appears in slides, i remembered a story from my indian childhood.
After Vijay opened his fish store he wrote an announcement " here we sell fresh fish". His father came by and suggeested to Vijay that the word "we" focuses on the seller not on the client so it is not necessary to be written in the sentence. So the text was replaced to "here selling fresh fish".
Next day, Vijay was visited by his brother that suggested he can erase the word "here" because it wasnt useful. Vijay agreed and he replaced the paper with "selling fresh fish".
Then, his sister came by, telling him that the paper should only contain "fresh fish" as it is obviously they are selling, being a store.
Later, his neighbor came by to congratulate him, mentioning that all the passers-by could tell the fish was obviously fresh. Saying the word "fresh" in the announcement it was like wanting to justify yourself for not being sure it is. There was no doubt the fish was fresh. So, now, on the window the announcement contained this message: "fish"
While Vijay was coming back to his store, after a break, he noticed he could identify immediately the fresh fish by its smell, even if from that distance, the announcement could not have been read.
So he realised there was no need on the paper announcement of the word "fish"
"
How was it? Did u get the moral?
I think saying less is more important...
Kisses

Happy bday
Hi, its december the 1st and i celebrate two of the most important dates in my life. First is the celebration of my relationship with my husband that started on december 1st 2000, so today we count 11 years of us. If only i knew what an adventure will be starting that day.
For those that dont know how we started, well, i met my husband on 28th of march 2000 but nothing told me i would become his wife then. We saw at his office, then our lives continued like we haven't met at all. On nov 30th i had a problem i heard he might help me out with so i called him, very shy, so we met that day. I discovered he tought about me all this time and he asked me out but i said a lie and hope he didnt get it :) unfortunately in 5 minutes my lie was revealed so i had to accept to meet him once more. He told me he will call me in some days but next day, in the morning he called me and asked me to join him for he wants to tell me some stuff. Well, i went, and he told me his story. He was by far the most honest man ever knew so i think i fell for him that moment. :) thats why i said yes in a second to his question of relationship.
U can guess the story is longer but i only wanted u to know a little. Maybe every year i will post the sequel :)
Anyway, here we are after 11 years, we have our marvelllous yet modest life but God gave me the precioust gift: our son, Reuben Christian whom tomorrow celebrates his 8 months of living :)
The 2nd event that we celebrate today is the national day of Romania, i love this country, i have been out its borders and trust me, there's no place like HOME. Love people, love places and love the opportunity i build on my own here.
Respect, Romania!
