Happy Birthday to the Awesomest Mother in the Universe!

Same as all the other first times, it's her first birthday without me. (So special naman the first daughter!) I'm sorry to keep you waiting Ma. I know you were online the whole day for me to be able to greet her. I'm just busy baking Mum. 

I'm so proud of my mum for being a full-time mother. Since my sister Keiko was born, she set aside her career. FYI, She's a good dancer. Not just good but SOLID good (not solid gold). For sure it was a hard decision for her to quit doing what she loves doing but she did not even think twice for our sake. (Did you Ma?) My Mum is next to God in providing us the highest form of love. That kind of love that's not asking anything in return. Mommy is so devoted in giving us the maximum affection she could give. Ma together with Dad (baka magtampo) are the two reasons why I am who I am today. They were able to provide us with the best of everything. I blame them, most specially her, because of spoiling me! I'm a brat and I know it. I understand that she just loves me too much that she doesn't want me to feel bad about anything. Of course, we have our ups and downs like any other mother-daughter relationship, but we always make sure that despite of everything we are in the same team. She knows (almost) everything about me without the need of me telling her. It seems like magic that she is already informed with what's happening and what I feel about it. She knows me inside out. That is one thing I admire of her. She makes things easy for me without the need of explaining it. Maybe because we were living under the same roof for almost 25 years now and she is a stay home mom. Being with us 24/7 made us close as ever. And I want to be like her when I grow up because she made me realize how noble her job is. Just to pay forward, I want my future children to feel the same way.

So to my dearest Ma, I want to acknowledge all your sufferings. Thank you. In return, I promise you that I will love you unconditionally too for the rest of my life! 

Missing you so much, 

Kay

P.S. Luto mo ko Lasagna pag-uwi ko ha?
