My Magic Wand Project

I had my very first blog back in 2006 when I documented all the details of my wedding. Now, I'm writing a new chapter in my life, this time sharing to fellow moms and would-be-moms my experience as a housewife and a budding entrepreneur.

I chose the title My Magic Wand because I felt that homemakers have the gift of converting simple household objects, such as broomsticks, cooking spoons and TV remotes, into enchanting pieces. Admittedly, I never considered myself as the housewife material until I became one. Since I worked 10 years straight before I tied the knot, I did not have much practice when it comes to house-cleaning, child-rearing, and all the other tasks that homemakers are supposed to be experts in. Mind you, soap operas/ telenovelas and Wowowee are also not my kind of shows. Perhaps even laid back mothers like myself have also evolved.

It's been 2 years since I decided to become a housewife. The first six months were spent learning the new role-- taking care of baby, cleaning the house (since we just moved in to a new home), mastering menu planning (I'm not an expert cook), and getting to know my hubby even more. The succeeding months started the transformation. To be honest, the original plan was for me to spend just 1-2 years at home and then I will go back to corporate life. It's been 2 years, and I have no intentions at all to go back to my good old marketing job. With a business that is slowly growing and a financial planning career, I'm sure the chocolate brands and vitamin products that I used to baby do not miss me even a bit.

I will try to review products that may or may not be part of my businesses, discuss common parenting issues and share little thoughts about anything worth our executive mommy time.

Fellow moms, welcome to the world of Fairy Moms!
