Mother's Day Special 2012

Here's the funny thing, I really didn't know the weekend we went to Manila was Mother's day pala until we arrived at MOA where our convention was held, somebody gave me a rose, I was like "Wow how nice of them naman to give out Flowers, Ganito ba talaga sa MOA?" Pasensya, first timer po. LOL

My friend told me, yun nga it was MOTHER's DAY.... Hooow mygood! I didn't know about it and I didn't even leave my mom a present for Mother's Day. Anyway, yun Mother's day instantly became so exciting for the three of us.

Hence, the Mother's Day Special. :)

May 12. Our flight from Cebu to Manila was at 4:30 am, I bathe Sophia before she slept, so what we did was just grabbed her and went straight to the airport the following day. 


Yes as soon as we got to the airport she woke up and didn't go back to sleep until 10 am. At least Sophia was so behaved the entire trip. No Tantrums. She didn't get scared with the turbulence, I instructed her to drink milk if her ears pop due to pressure and she obliged without any hassle. I let her sit down near the window and she can't stop saying WOW to the light. Haaaay, it's so fun to be a kid.

So our first day was we went to Manila Ocean Park, where I blogged about it here.

The second day I attended the NADTI Convention and I brought Maury and Sophie along with me. 

@ NADTI Convention

Lunch date at Burgoo


Of course we dined out after and hang out at Resorts World where we waited until 9 pm to go to NAIA for our 10:45 pm flight.

It was indeed fun and memorable. Imagine we celebrated Mother's day away from home just the three of us. Next year out of the country naman. Choz. Lol

Special shoutout to Nina who has a big heart. Lovs you Ninanins.... Thank you for driving us around and for letting us stay at your condo as in thanks so so much. Parang gusto na namin bumalik for another short escape. lol.

Daily Snapshots: Motherhood. What have you done to me?



Mother's Day 2012

Being a Mother changed my life in so many ways. And I thought about what life used to be without Sophia and these are the few changes I've observed through the whole 2 years of being a Mom.
  • In fairness to me, I've always been a very thoughtful and loving person but I didn't know that by being a mom I COULD LOVE THIS MUCH. That I still have this much love to give. It's crazy. You don't account who loves more and how much love you have already given, you just love. Love. Love. Period.
          Now the meaning of unconditional love is crystal clear to me.
  • I miss shopping for myself. And I realized that it's never going to happen again. If I shop for myself, I always end up shopping for me, hubby and Little S.
          Heck, it's even easier to decide purchasing things for Little S, than going for my indulgence.
  • I've become a constant thinker and worrier. I can't help it. I'm always thinking about Hubby and Sophia's care 24/7.
  • I now prefer to wear flat and comfy shoes.
  • I've become so emotional about kids and families. One time I remembered watching a coke commercial here, I was crying for like 3 minutes. Promise, I got so affected by the commercial.
But those changes are only few and minor, compared to the wonderful gift of being a MOTHER. I wouldn't trade my everyday kiss and hug from Sophia, I wouldn't trade the joy she gives me every day. True, Mauryy completes me and with Sophia she keeps us WHOLE.

I play a lot of roles, from being a wife, a friend, a sister and a daughter. But Being a MOTHER is the BEST role I love to play.
