I know.. I'm 4 days late but I believe in "Its better late than never". Lol. Well, I want to greet my loving mom a Happy Mother's Day, its never too late. Everyday should be mother's day right?
Maybe right now, she thought that I wasn't making anything for her since mother's day was 4 days ago. Hihi. Papatalo ba ako? No! Haha! Well, she brought me into this world on August 18, 199* nyaha! My mom is one of the women I look up to. People's first impression of her is masunget because of her loud voice and big eyes (I wish I had that eyes lol). But trust me, she's not. She's very kind and generous.
My mom is a preschool teacher outside the country. She works abroad to support our family. My dad lives abroad with her as well. Therefore, I'm the only one studying here in the Philippines.. okay. Haha! I really admired her passion in teaching. She teaches nursery students; nursery students are the hardest children to teach since they don't know ANYTHING. They only know mama, papa and few words and yet my mom is so patient enough to teach those kids. She's been doing that ever since I was elementary (?) oh, most probably when I was still in preschool, she's already teaching nursery kids. I really admire her for that because teaching nursery children is something serious, their skills will depend on how effective and good the teacher is. Its like she's the one building the foundation of the kids all through out their school life. School life nyaha! Oh well.. yes its really amazing and I really admire her for that.
My mom.. she's the one who brought my dad to church :) When they got married, my mom was the only Christian. My mom patiently brought my dad to church every week and now my dad is pastor. God used my mom to reach out to my dad and I'm very thankful for that. She also thought us how to pray from our hearts. I really can't forget those times.
Most of all, she's a loving and godly mom :) She cooks for us everyday maybe the last time I experienced that when I was in high school. I'm already in college.. living alone. I miss those times where she wake me up by telling the wrong time. Let's say my class is 7:30am, she's tells me that is 7:30 already when its just 6:00 in the morning, so of course the usual reaction is.. I panic and get up immediately. I miss my high school days where my mom's classroom is just downstairs and I eat with her students. You know.. getting food from their lunch boxes. Well that's how I save money back in high school buwahaha! I miss the times where she takes care of me when I'm sick. She waits for me to sleep and rubs my head. I love that feeling when she touches my hair and rubs my head and make me feel loved. I remember in my first year of college, my stomach really ached so bad that the feeling was like something sharp is slitting my stomach.. (over!) haha! It was that feeling that I'm not really comfortable and like a child.. I was calling for my mom, but whatever I do, I know she's far and she can't go here as quickly as possible and just for that reason. I cried because I remember the times when some part of my body aches, she's just there to come and ask me what's wrong. But now that I'm in college, I can't do that just like that anymore. She's working abroad and I'm here in the Philippines studying for college. I really cried that night because I really missed my mom.
We've gone through a lot.. a lot of arguments and fights but despite of those things, I love my mom. She might not be the perfect mom, but she's the only mom I want to have :) She's the best mom for me and I'm thankful to God that He gave me her to take care of me and take responsibility of me. I love her so much and I'm going to miss her since she have 9 days left here in the Philippines. I'm gonna miss her so much but I pray that they will be safe there. Though apart, they're in my heart and always be in my heart.
Mommy, thank you so much for everything. I know this is too long but this alone can't express how much I'm thankful to God that He gave me you. I know sometimes we argue and fight but I want you to know that I still love you and you're the best mom and the only mom I wanted to have. Thank you for always being there for me and loving me for who I am. I'm thankful to have a godly mom like you. Stay that way. Fat or thin, I still love you just the way you are. I'm going to miss you and always keep in mind that I love you so much.
I love you Mom
