Happy Mother's Day to Me!

Friday night, I have been smiling while planning for my second mother's day celebration come sunday. In my mind i am excitedly packing yena's bag for a quick trip to Araneta Coliseum to watch PBA with husband, his brother Maki and my brother Lui. After mass we should be running for the next bus to Pasig to attend Chico's first birthday, Pehpot's son.

But none of my plan turned to reality. As yena got on and off fever since saturday, we decided to just stay home. She was really not feeling well at the church while Husband and I were all smiles. The mass was heartrending, everybody almost cried with the song for mother's. I was about to cry too..

Husband's mother's day gifts to me were.. purple flat sandals, lavender crocs sandals from DIVI and purple pouch from michaela :) So, you see i am a spoiled wife sometimes and am so loved by husband ALL the time!! :)

Come sunday afternoon, husband surprised me with what i have been wishing for - a washing machine!!! He told me wanted to buy me lavender colored washing machine, but it was 6.2kg only so he bought me 7.5kg white and pink :) See him goofing around while am taking picture of my newest toy in the house :D

So i have to say that aside from husband's gifts I really have a happy mother's day because of his gestures of love! Because the priest at the mass told every husband and children to give ALL the MOMs a rest from the house chores of the day, I was spoiled all the more because hubby did all the washing of the dishes, cooking and ironing of all our mountain loads of clothes :)

I am sooo happy wife! :) Love you daddy! How i wish its always mother's day. LOL

All I Need for Mother's Day

Now is the time of year again that i can wish for something i so long wanted. Oh well, aside from my birthday! hahah.

For things that include my dream's wish list are: my own digital camera, washing machine, hardbound twilight saga book and an LCD TV for my husband.

But those are what i have been dreaming, just a wish, my wants and NOT a NEED. So for Mother's Day, i have a NEED not for myself but for my MOM.

I need "blessings" from PPP and SS hope they make more! I need to sustain her medication everyday, her checkups and her laboratory tests. It has been a happy journey albeit very very difficult at times to think of my parents and my parents' in laws everyday medicine for they all need to maintain them, but that is life and what it has to offer, so i must say it is still a happy journey with the whole family. Am glad I’ve been loved by PPP and SS for the month of April. So I wish for more blessings from them on months ahead! Thank you very much..

On Sunday I wish every mother would get their biggest hug, sweeetest kiss and loudest iloveu from their children and husband. Mother all over the world should feel they are loved and greatly appreciated not only at this one given Sunday but everyday!

For my mother, my MIL, my sister, my SILs, all my mommy friends and all the mothers in the world including those who are in heaven:

Advance Happy Mother’s Day to all of us!

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! :)
