Mother and Daughter BFF Rules

My mother died when I was Thirteen so I never had the chance to know my mother better.
Growing up without a Mother is like growing up on your own, even if I had my grandma back then
still I felt alone and have no idea what life is about, what things should I know and learn but all of
this longing doesn't stop me from being who I am now and since I myself have my own daughter
now I decided to make a list of things to guide us in raising our own and have a wonderful mother
and daughter relationship along the way.

here they are...

Trust

When She said “Don’t Tell Anyone” then don’t.

Nung  bata ako I told my mom something and asked her not to tell anyone, but then when my dad came

home that night I caught her telling my dad everything I said, I felt so bad that time natakot din akong mag

trust ulit, feeling ko she betrayed me kaya from that day on hindi na ako masyado ng sasabi sa kanya ng

kung ano ano, hindi rin ako close sa nanay ko I grew up a Daddy’s girl and when I was growing up my

nanay passed away naman so while growing up as a teenager it was only my dad and myself  I trusted.

Respect

Respect is not just about “Po” and “Opo”, “Amen”, “Thank you”, those were just words of respect that can

easily taught to kids.

Respect is more of giving each other the chance to do what they want without telling them to

Respect is more of giving each other moral

Encouragement

Encourage your child to do what makes them happy but don’t forget to remind them to be cautious.

I personally grew up with low self esteem, hindi maganda ang skin, hindi healthy, hindi matalino and most of

all walang talent sa kahit anong skills. As I grew up and discover how to do things on my own that’s when

the time I started to gain a little confidence. Super hirap yung feeling na you want to do something pero

people around you would say “hindi ka pwede nyan or hindi ka bagay dyan” kaya promise ko sa sarili ko na

pag nag karoon ako ng anak pagiging supportive mom ang peg ko.  Sabi nga nila if you want to raise a

champion you have to encourage them to be one.  Pero aminin natin mga mothers hindi lang support ang

binibigay natin sa kanila but all the best we could kaya minsan nag kakaroon tayo ng tinatawag na

“spoiled”but who cares as long as wala tayong ginagawang masama sa iba and wala tayong na aapakan na

tao, a mother will always be a mother no matter what.

Laugh together

Laughing together and making joke at each other can make the bonding stronger.

I know someone who can text her daughters na parang tropa lang, they can also talk about anything and

sometimes they make fun of each other. 

Sabi nga nila laughter is the best medicine, laughter can also ease the pain away and make any bad hardtimes

easy.

Be true to each other

Being true to your daughter means being true to yourself, no matter  how painful it is telling the truth can set

you free. 

Ang Ina ang ating unang guro, and Ina ang ating unang kritiko at ang Ina ang ating unang tagahanga.

 Kaya mga mothers habang bata pa lang sila let's practice telling the truth na para pag laki yun na ang naka

sanayan nila....

Always Have Time

Always have time to listen
Always have time to share what ever idea you have
Always have a time to play
Always be a FRIEND not just a Mom

Be an Explorer

Explore things together and never be afraid to try things together

Enrichment

Enrich your child's skills, talent and whatever makes them the best they could be



Being a mother is not an easy job people may judge us, our kids may not appreciate us but no matter what
the world see us being a MOTHER is something that no man can take from US.

Mum,

You may be treated like the maid,
you may be treated like the gardner,
you may be treated like the daycare,
you may be treated like the chauffer,
you may be treated like many things.
But one thing is for sure,
You will always be loved.
For a fathers work may be from sun up till sundown,
but a mothers work is never down.
And all that I have, am, and hope to be, I owe to you,
So this is for all the times I forgot to say THANK YOU!!

Tatay's Birthday!

Yesterday was my husbands birthday since super simple lang na tao ang asawa ko ayaw nya ng maraming handa so I decided na mag take home nalang kami.

I bought Red Ribbon Palabok Platter, I'm not really a fan of Palabok pero ang asawa ko super kaya buti nalang super dali lang bumili sa Red Ribbon and masarap din pala sya kasi kahit mga kids kumain.

And then I bought cake by Cara Mia

 It was chocolate cake I forgot lang yung Flavor, masarap din sya my daughter can't help dipping her finger.












That's her guarding the cake ayaw mag pa kuha sa iba...
We also had Bon Chon chicken.
Tatay said it was a special day daw and super happy sya, and simple lang talaga ng happiness ng asawa ko noh?

I feel so lucky everyday not because I get everything I want but because I got to have a partner like him, someone na hindi ka iiwan no matter what and always tried his best to make you happy and make your child feel secure.

 Each man is unique every woman is fragile we just have to know how to handle them and be happy in every way...

Goodbye to the pain of life...

Hi everyone! I know super tagal kong nawala at marami din akong kwento na gusto i-share sa inyo one of these is about my cousin's struggles with Cancer...

November 2013 my cousin Janssen was brought to a nearby hospital due to excessive cough, he wasn't able to sleep properly or even work properly anymore. After a series of test his doctors advised him to transfer to the Heart Center of the Philippines and there he was diagnosed of stage IV Lung Cancer. It was indeed the hardest part of our life, lahat kami sa family tried everything to help him out financially and emotionally. Nung namatay ang lola namin little things change and  nag ka roon ng gap ng communications sa aming lahat, we only get to see each other sa fb and even talk, but when we all found out about his stage para kaming tinawag lahat ng Lola namin, we become united and much closer.

December 2013 we had a reunion, everyone from different parts of the country and overseas gathered to spent christmas with him. One thing I regretted was not spending our birthday together like we used to. He was born December 10 and I was born December 11, separate years nga lang pero since the day na tumira ako with our Lola she always made it sure na mag celebrate kami together kahit simple pansit and puto lang masaya na kami.

January 2014 He was doing Ok, he started to gain weight kahit papano.
Since it was already a stage IV Lung Cancer his family decided not to undergo any chemotherapy and just went to alternative medicine with Dr. Rey Viloria. Dr. Viloria has given him 3 months to know if the treatments are working for him. We all continue to hope for a miracle, each one of us prayed and prayed, we all tried to show him our love, support and understanding but God really has a plan for him a plan that only him knows.

February 2014 he complain of excessive chest pain, they brought him again to the hospital but this time they went to Lung Center of Philippines, another operation was made and this time things become worst.
February 27, 2014 the doctors told his wife and family that they can only help him live through a tube inserted in his mouth, my cousin is the type of guy who hates to see people suffer because of him so he decided not to have any procedure anymore. February 28,2014 we received a text message from his wife telling us that anytime within the day pwede na syang mawala. After receiving the text and continue posting thru fb I decided to file a halfday leave and went straight to Lung Center, God was so good for giving me the time to say my goodbye to him, hold his hand and the chance to tell him that we love him as a brother.

It was a pain seeing him gone but it was better than seeing him suffer everyday, we may feel the pain of loosing him but we know he is in a better place now. He died leaving us a beautiful memory, a beautiful child and a loving wife.
