From My Keziah

An artwork…“portrait” ni Mamaru, pinadala sa Gmail galing sa unica hija kong si Keziah. Pang-Mother’s Day artwork niya sa akin. Hehe! Di ko napigilan mangiti kasi yung gupit ng hair ko ngayon ay kuhang-kuha dito sa drawing nya. At ang payat ko dito ha! Eyelabit! Kunsabagay, nabawasan din talaga ako ng timbang. Higit sa lahat, natawa ako kasi naka-dress nga ako pero naka-tsinelas naman. Howel, ang totoo ay madalas kasi naka-tsinelas lang talaga ako. (Mas kalurkey naman kung nasa bahay lang naman ako tapos naka-heels lagi?!)

Ang Mother’s Day Ng Single Mom

single parent Mother’s Day na bukas. Eto ang isa sa mga "special day" ko (kasama na yung Valentines Day at Birthday),  na madalas ay mas gusto kong sana ay lumipas na lang agad.

Ang Mother’s Day para sa isang single mom na gaya ko ay kung tutuusin ay wala naman masyadong pinagkaiba sa ordinaryong araw. Walang mister/boyfriend na makikita na magpapaka-aligaga para ipaghanda ako ng kunyari isang breakfast in bed, walang inaasahang surprise gift, flowers o card,  at wala din naman akong inaasahang magte-take over sa daily routine ko bukas.

Gustuhin ko man na mapa-iba ang araw ko bukas, halimbawa eh bigyan ng regalo ang sarili ko, (hmmmn…iniisip ko, bagong iPad kaya? Charot!) o kaya i-treat ang wankata ko ng kahit simpleng body massage sa SPA clinic ay isang malaking HINDI PWEDE. Bummer, kasi kelangan isantabi muna ang pampering at kaartehan na yan dahil nalalapit na ang pasukan sa school ng mga junakis ko. Tiyak umaatikabong gastusan na naman ang darating at kelangan paghandaan ni Mamaru. Eh mas importante naman yun sa akin noh.

Heniways, sa loob ng 20 years ng pagiging single mom ko, sinubukan ko rin naman noon na ayain ang mga bagets ko na kumain sa labas para mag selebreyt kuno. Kaso sa totoo lang, parang hindi ko nalalasahan ang kinakain ko at para bang the sentiment is lost ng Mother’s Day ko pag ako rin ang nagbabayad ng bill pagkatapos ng lafang namin. Haha! Ewan ko ba, pakiramdam ko nawawala ang pagiging special ng araw pag ako ang gumagastos. Haaays…buhay-single mom nga naman.

Pero don’t get me wrong ha. I hope hindi ako tunog-ampalaya o bitter. Ang point ko lang naman dito ay…ang Mother’s Day para sa amin na mga single mom ay medyo naiiba – pero slight lang naman. O baka sa akin lang. Hehe!

Siempre, happy at kinikilig din ako pag binabati o hinahalikan ng mga anak ko sa Araw ng mga Madir. Oo naman, hindi naman ako ingrata at alam kong mas dapat kong isipin na I am blessed. Sabi ko nga, pinagpala ako pagdating sa mga anak. I have awesome Kevin and Keziah sa buhay ko.

Fact of life, hindi lahat ng babae ay pwedeng magbuntis. Hindi lahat ng babae ay nabibiyayaan ng anak at hindi lahat ng nanganak ay pwede tawagin na INA. Hindi lahat ng tao ay may nabubuhay na may kasa-kasama pang nanay hanggang sa ngayon. Ang pagkakaroon ko ng dalawa at hindi lang isang anak ay isang malaking biyaya na sa akin. Isip-isip ko, siguro nga ay sapat na yun na maging rason para gunitain ko rin kahit sa simpleng paraan ang importansya ng Mother’s Day bukas.

Kaya magmukha man akong trying hard, I will celebrate my day tomorrow. At kung paano? Alaws pa akong idea. Well, bahala na si Batman!

May 8: Mother’s Day

Soon it will be month of May. It is going to be Mother’s Day again!

Mother’s Day falls on the second Sunday each May. For this year, the mom’s special day will be on May 8. One thing for sure, flower shops and online florist like Greensboro flower delivery will be flooded again with orders!

I know many people tend to forget how much their mom does for them on a daily basis and forget to thank and show their appreciation on a regular basis. Take the opportunity to show your mom how much you love and appreciate her. Buy her gift, send her flowers, take her out to fine dining resto, cook for her, treat her to SPA, these are just of the several things you can do to make the holiday special to your mom.

I wonder what my kids are planning on the 8th of May.:D

Once upon a time, there was a child ready to be born. The child asked God, “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how I am going to live there being so small and helpless?’

God replied,Among the many angels, I chose one for you. Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”

The child further inquired, “But tell me, here in heaven I don’t have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.”

God said, “Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel’s love and be very happy.”

Again, the child asked: “And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?”

God said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.”

“And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?”

God said, “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”

“I’ve heard that on Earth there are bad men. Who will protect me?”

God said, “Your angel will defend you even if it means risking it’s life.”

“But I always be sad because I will not see you anymore.”

God said, “Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you.”

At that moment, there was much peace in heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked: “God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”

“Her name is not important. You will simply call her Mom.”
