Mother’s Day :)
Mother’s day. Hindi naman kami mapera para gumala at kumaen sa labas. Madalas cake or ice cream sa bahay. Okay na yun. Hindi kame kumain sa labas. Hahaha. Kumain lang sa loob. Tapos syempre, ang hindi mawawalang mga poster o kung ano man ‘tong mga idinidikit namin sa bahay na may nakalagay na Happy Mother’s Day! Simple celebration basta wag lang ma-BV si Mama sa araw niya. Hehe. Tapos pag gabi, may greeting session kame. Haha. Lahat kasi ng nagtext tsaka mga nagpabati ng happy mother’s day e binabasa namin kay Mama. May description pa nga like: “Ma, eto yung mga classmate ko ng college na bumati sayo.” Tapos i-state ko isa-isa yung names. Hanggang maubos ko lahat ng nag-greet. Naalala ko last year (2012), sabi ko: “Ma, binati ka din po ni A, yung crush ni Ate. Haha.” Kaya ginantihan ako ni Ate at sinabing: “Ma, binati ka din naman ni A, yung crush niya. Sinabi pang classmate. Crush niya yun.” Kaya ayun, alam ni Mama mga crush namin nun ni Ate. Hahahaha.
Anyway, sa mga tumblr friends na nagpagreet kay Mama, nareceive niya yung greetings niyo, nabasa ko na lahat sa kanya. Hindi niya man kayo marecognize lahat, basta thank you! :))
Dear Mama,
Effort ‘to. Hirap humanap ng picture mo. Huhuhu. Pa-picture din pag may time ha? :P
Lagi ko na lang sinasabi sayo ‘tong mga bagay na ‘to pero hindi ako magsasawa. Ikaw nga hindi nagsasawa samin e, ako pa kaya?
Ma, you don’t know how thankful I am na ikaw yung nanay ko. Ma, we’re not rich but for me, we are. Nakaka-kain nga tayo ng higit sa tatlo sa isang araw e. Ang takaw mo kasi. Hahaha! Idinadamay mo pa ko. Tapos mainitan ka lang, papautos ka na agad kay Papa na bumili ng ice cream. Magsawa ka lang sa ulam, gusto mo na agad mag-Mang Inasal. Lagi ang dami-dami mong plano. Mapera ha? Hahaha! Alam mo Ma, nakakatawa ka minsan, lagi kasi kayo nag-aasaran ni Papa tapos pikon ka naman. Nakakatuwa naman kasi sinasakyan mo ako sa kalokohan ko pati yung dun sa pito (whistle) ni Papa. Sabi natin kung hindi niya mahanap yung nawawala niyang pito, e di yung walo na lang. Hahaha. Ang corny. Tapos minsan nagugulat ako sayo tuwing dumadating ang 7, lagi mo naaalalang monthsary namin yun ng OC. Tinatanong mo ko ng: “Ye, di ba OC Day ngayon?” Hanep ka Ma. Kaloka. Nung May 7, naalala mong OC Day pero ako, hindi. Salamat sa reminder Ma. Hihi. Salamat po kasi simula 3rd year college e madalas mo na ko payagan sa mga alis-alis at gala-gala, hehehe. Tsaka mula naman nun, hindi ako nagsinungaling. Sinasabi ko sayo kung saan talaga ako pupunta. You gave me the trust sa mga gagawin ko at freedom sa paggala so I should be honest kung saan ako pupunta at kung anong gagawin ko. Symbiosis lang, give and take relationship. Salamat po kasi hindi ka nawala sa tabi namin all the way. Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. Hahaha. Ma, sorry ang pasaway ko pa din hanggang ngayon. Sorry na *with puppy eyes* Haha. Ma, nakakainis minsan kapag dinadaldalan mo ko sa mga hindi ko nagawa pero kapag may ginagawa naman ako, wala kang sinasabi. De, okay lang yun. Ganda ko pa din. Hahaha. Pag sinasabi kong maganda ko, laging sinasabi ni Papa: “Syempre maganda yung nanay. Kung anong puno, siya ding bunga.” Astig talaga ni Papa! Ma, salamat sa bonding. Lol. Sabay kasi tayong nanunuod ng Be Careful With My Heart, nag-aasaran pa tayo. Ma, buti umuwi ka ng probinsiya kahit 2weeks lang. At least, I can say I love you even through the phone. Pag nandito kasi tayo sa bahay, hindi ko maaraw-araw ang pagsabi sayo. Well, action speaks louder than words naman. Hahaha. Charot! Ayun, di ko na uungkatin pati yung pagdadala mo sakin ng 9months sa tiyan mo kasi lagi na yung nakalagay sa mga sulat ko sayo dati. I’m thankful and I will always be thankful about it. Lahat ng sacrifices mo samin, hindi ko man mabanggit lahat, pinagpapasalamat ko po yun. Ang daldal ko talaga Ma, sanay ka na naman di ba? Hahaha. Alam ko malaki ang chance na mabasa mo ‘to, binasa niyo na nga ni Ate yung iba kong blog dito e di ba? I’m free to blog, alam niyo na e!
Basta Ma, thank you po sa lahat. Mahal po kita, alam mo naman yun e! Haha. Tsaka ga-graduate po ako sa 2014. Promise! Ma, I love you and I always will. Happy Mother’s Day nga po pala! Hihi. Enjoy your day. God bless you always!
Anak mong maganda,
Yeye

Mom, I know this might sound stupid. But I want to thank you for carrying me inside your womb for 9 painful months. For making yourself safe not just for your own, but also for me. For giving me a birthday to celebrate every year. For singing a lullaby just to make me fall asleep. For reading me a story about a princess named after me, and making me believe that the princess was actually me and I might as well find my prince upon the future. For hugging me so tight when I had a bad dream and then tell me that everything’s gonna be fine as long as you’re with me. For being so supportive even you’re too busy. For listening even all I say were complaints. For being my shoulder to cry on when I’m in pain when an asshole suddenly broke my heart. For every effort you exert just to give me a wonderful life. For everything. Thank you for everything.
I know a simple “Thank You” wont do. But still, I want to thank you. Thank you for your existence. Thank you for my life. I know you’re no longer getting younger. Everyday, you’re getting old. I am sorry I wasn’t sometimes there when you need me. I am sorry I never even asked you if you’re okay. I am sorry if you thought you raised an imperfect child. I am sorry that I cursed and it hurts you a lot. I am sorry for every little bad thing I did. I wish it’s not too late to make it up to you and make you feel special. The way you treated me.
I promise, to myself and to the whole wide universe, I will do the same for you when you are old. I will carry you when you can’t walk to the bathroom. I’ll keep you safe and not let a single mosquito get in to you. I’ll sing you a song for you to have a good night. I’ll make your birthdays extra-special. I’ll listen to your stories about anything. Either your love story or the likes. Just speak. I want to hear your voice as sweet as the last time you sang me a lullaby. I’ll tell you a story about a queen named after you and tell you how perfect she is. I’ll hear every single word you’ll say even you’re murmuring.
I love you. You know that. I know, you feel even when I don’t say everyday. I hope so. You are the best thing that’s ever happened to me, well aside from my prince that you once told me. I love you and I will do anything just to make it up to you. Name it. I love you despite of everything. You are my one and only queen and I love you for everything.
Lalalala~
It is so late at night but since it is Mother’s Day, we (Me, Ate and Natnat) had a talk or I can say a story telling with Mama last night. It’s about her unending story how she gave birth to us. I heard that story for how many times but still, I’m eager to listen. I just realized how much pain and sacrifice she went through just to gave birth to us- her three little kids. For me, that talk with Mama last night was a lesson or a tip for me and Ate because in the future, we’ll be a mom also. Another thing is maybe for us to realize that everything that we have right now is because of her hardships she had from the day we were born until now.

Charr! So ma-drama of me. Trying hard pa ko mag-english niyan. Hahaha. =))
”Pagamitin mo na ng internet yang ate mo, baka kasi hindi niya maka-chat si Ambo.” - Mama.
Kung may pinakamalakas mang-asar dito sa bahay, si Mama talaga yun. Hahaha. =)) Happy Mother’s Day Mama. ♥
