Happy Mother's Day!

First time ko pong magcelebrate ng Mother's Day on Sunday, kaya let me have this opportunity to feature the reason of my motherhood, My Yelena Hayden.

Every mother experience being a first time mom, maybe like me, OA din sila. Over Acting in a sense na minsan di ko na rin masabayan sarili ko. You see, i work from Monday to Friday 8-5. Every morning i have to drop by Yena to my mother's house and then fetch her every night before going home. It was a struggle at first to leave her. Sometime after giving birth i cried for just a thought of leaving her when returning for work. So imagine on my first day back to work.. it was a sad day. but now im ok. Mejo kaya ko na ang mahabang oras na wala sa tabi niya, but when its 5pm, you will see me running home, yun lang! heheh:)

I am so thankful for my boss and officemates, for being supportive of me during those times when i had to get out of a meeting or when i took long hours in the comfort room to have my "pumping session"... i wanted her to be breastfeed fully until she is 2 years old. but thats impossible.. she is into mixed feeding now, but i see to it that i breastfeed her nightly or when i'm at home.

Now, I cant have my bonding moment with highschool and college friends anymore. Not that im complaining. Id like to join them but i cant bring Yena. and i cant imagine going out without her if its not for work. You see im having a post partum depression maybe, sometimes i cried for just a thought of her..

I wanted every moment captured. Now, i am so addicted to taking pictures. I wanted to know details of her first firsts. See our blog for that. i hope i give justice remembering all those precious events that we will both look back when she's so matanong in everything that has happened in her growing up years.. Haaay i just cant wait for that time already..

Did i say Yena has a birthmark on her lower lips? We just noticed it a day after her birthday.. It was red and its getting redder all the more.. such a cutey!

No mom would not be proud of their child, i know. i just cant believe that i am this proud of my little one. I am so greatly honored to have been given this so precious gift, my God's gift. i must have been good in my past life to be blessed with her.. Now i am one of the million moms whose life has been moving around the welfare of her own flesh and blood. For that, a salute to all the moms in the world!

Happy mother's day to my mother, my sister, my mother-in-law, my sisters-in-law, my cousins, my aunts, colleagues and friends.. Congrats to all of us! :)
