Happy Birthday Mommy!!!

I stay up late night of April 3 with my cousin Irish while we were getting addicted to videoke. It was also a way of making myself awake up to 12 midnight to greet my mother a Happy Birthday.

As the clock strikes 12, I called my mother on the phone (even though we're inside the same roof) and sang her a Happy Birthday. I climbed upstairs and kissed her goodnight afterwards. I planned to accompany her in the Salubong and first mass of Easter Sunday but can hardly get up from bed as I saw them (my mother and cousin Mine) leave for the Easter Celebration. Thus, I contented myself and just catch the third mass together with Irish and my sister.

Unlike last year, my mom's birthday celebration is quite simple. We just spent it with her siblings (plus their children) in our compound and shared a bare yet great lunch. Of course the celebration is made extra special with her first grandchild (my niece, Stephanie) who sang the "Happy Birthday" song loud and alive.

Stephanie and I

My Mom and Stephanie. Isn't she happy?

I know my mother was happy with that simple celebration for her loved ones were sharing lunch together. Those were moments that cannot be paid by grandiose treats nor extravagant escapades. I'm happy that she's happy.

I just so love my mother...



Happy Birthday Mommy! I love you! Mwah!

I see where you get your good looks, Madz! They say if you want to know what your future wife will look like when she's older, look at her mother. I say your future husband has NO cause for worry! Happy belated birthday to your mom.
