Oh Momma. (: It’s not Mother’s Day or anything special like that. But I’d just like to tell you that I love you. I know I never tell you.. And it’s only because we’re not a very vocal family. We communicate fine; talking, yelling, joking yadda yadda. Yet we never actually say “I love you.” I never knew why and it never bothers me. And actions speak louder than words anyway. But sometimes it’s nice to hear, you know? So I’m telling you now. haha.
You are the strongest, most independent woman in my life. And I hope that someday I become even half the woman you are. You’re also the most hardworking, patient, understanding, funny (don’t tell Dad!), selfless, and brutally honest person I know. Not to mention you make the best home cooked meals! Yum, sarap!! I’ll need to learn your tricks of the trade one day, but for now I'll settle for being your Official Taste Tester. :]
We have our times when we both go off on each other and neither one of us want to back down. It’s because we’re both stubborn, I got that from you. LOL. And I know I’m not always the best daughter in the world and that you always try to be the best Mom. But I love those times when I can tell you about me and my friends and just things in general. And you tell me how your day is going, what happened at the carehome, etc. You’ve really become one of my best friends and sometimes my friends say we’re even like sisters. xD Yet at the end of the day, when things don’t get done and there’s a problem; you’re still my Momma and you put your feet down.
Now don’t think I forgot to mention another thing. AHA. You’re also beautiful, inside and out. I learned to accept and love myself from you because you would sometimes say, “I’m fat! SO! It’s true. Why deny it!” And the fact that you don’t mask anything and keep it real shows that you’re a truly beautiful person, not some fake plastic.
There’s so much more I can say and list. But it’d just be redundant and mean the same thing; Thank you for everything Momma, 143. ♥
