Hi there! Welcome to Edelweiss19.com, my latest blog about family and home living. Aptly titled Family Matters, this is my attempt at documenting the many roles I play in our six-member family: as breadwinner, as role model, as the eldest child, as daughter, as sister and as homemaker working to keep our household in working order and conducive to co-existence, growth, harmony and love.

Thanks for the visit and please come again!
