🌸 “Motherhood isn’t giving up a career path — it’s taking a hiatus to nurture the most rewarding job of all: being a mom.”

Hello, and welcome to Kritine Diary! 💕

— an OFW mom living in FINLAND with my family.

This is my digital diary-to keep moments together anda to share our real-life journey: from raising a child in a foreign country to discovering new places and flavors together.

Here, you’ll find a mix of personal stories, family moments, travel adventures, and food we love (and sometimes miss from the Philippines!).

Being far from home is never easy, but with love, faith, and family by my side, every day becomes meaningful.

I hope you find something here that makes you smile or feel seen.

Thank you for being here. Let’s grow, laugh, and connect together. ❤️

Don’t forget to hit that follow button and say hi in the comments!

❤️ Kritine

If being a mom is a job, then this is definitely my favorite one. ☺️

Raising a tiny human isn’t just about cuddles and lullabies—it takes serious time, planning, and a whole lot of trial and error. Sometimes, things go so hilariously wrong that my husband and I end up calling an emergency meeting at the dining table just to figure out where our parenting strategy failed. 😅

Mealtime? Oh, that’s a whole different challenge. I basically have to be a full-time marketer, convincing my kids that the vegetables on their plate are not only edible but actually delicious. “Broccoli is just tiny trees, and superheroes eat them too!” 🍽️😂

And don’t even get me started on diaper changes and bath time—it’s like entering a wrestling match with a slippery octopus. Brushing teeth? That’s an hour-long negotiation with someone who insists they’re “too tired” but just had the energy to run around the house five minutes ago. 🦷💪

Then, there are the sick days. On those days, I become both a doctor and a nurse—Googling symptoms, checking temperatures, and trying to soothe every cough and whimper like a pro, even when I’m running on zero sleep.

Motherhood isn’t easy, but it’s filled with love, laughter, chaos, and moments that make it all worth it. It’s the toughest job I’ve ever had—but also the most rewarding.

Thanks for my Nanay☺️I know now
