My Superwoman

It's mother's day today and sadly, unlike our many friends and cousins, my siblings and I won't get to celebrate it with our mom cos she's too far! But I won't put up with this excuse. I won't go about telling everyone how OC you are mom or how much of a rice-ivore you are like my sister Dianne or how many times you said you were getting fat when really you weren't. HAHA <3 Rather, I'd like to take this time to actually tell anyone who's reading this how big my love is for the one mother I'm blessed to have. Her being some place else (U.S.) is, in itself, already a clear depiction of how much she loves me and my siblings. Yes it's too sad that I'm one of those kids who grew up without her mother around. But by God's grace my mum remained my mum, in every possible and loving way. 

I've always been puzzled by this seemingly intangible "love" that mothers have always had for their children. Mommy (and most other moms too) said I can only fully understand how much she loves us, her kids, when I get to be a mother myself. With her as an example, I kinda get it. Kinda, but not quite. What I know now for sure is that they simply love us more than they love themselves.

Mommy with the most adorable Jedi

I've said this a lot of times before but I will never get tired of it, much as you will never get tired of me, I love you mommy. Your selflessness, your capability and your faith in God Almighty --- they all poured out on me, Dianne and Julian. Sana someday, when I get to be someone's superwoman (which is super WAY in the future pa don't worry hehe) myself, I could be just as how you are now with me. I can never thank you or dad enough for everything. 

Happy mother's day to your mom too dear reader,
