It hurts and crumples my heart while writing this blog post because I miss my mother so much. We have been away for two years already because she is in abroad together with my father working to support the financial needs in the house. I feel those people whose parents are away from them because I also cried a lot alone at first few months when they were away.

While brainstorming my blog I realized I don’t have that many pictures alone with my mama because when we were together we don’t have cameras back then to capture the memories and some days we failed to take pictures because we were busy spending quality time than documenting the memories. One of my regrets was not taking pictures with my mom and dad alone. It is something I didn’t realize before they were not away from me.

The house is not the same without her; I missed those days where I come up upstairs the house every morning and just hug her before I go to school, those days when she stays up late because she was busy marinating food for us to consume on the next days, those days when we eat together outside the house, those days when we traveled together and those days when she decorates the big house herself for us to feel the spirit of Christmas.

I was like a dog and she was my boss. Her voice was like music to my ears, I get excited when I hear she arrives in the house and when I hear her bag ticks on the glass of the table. I enjoy watching her cook and I love smelling her beautiful scent that embraces to her clothes. I cling to her as much as possible I could be with her and I annoy her when she does not listen to me. That is why dogs are called by people Man's bestfriend.

Little boy bugging his mother

I am like this child bugging my mother.

My mom is a super mom, I never felt and realized the countless sacrifices by my mom when she was here in the Philippines until she was away from me. I got plenty of realizations when she is now away. I wondered why sometimes my mother does not respond to my talks before and now I realized that being silent gives you rest and sometimes being silent has plenty of stuffs to think of. Now that my sister and I manages the cash flow inside the household, I realized I was so costly and demanding with the needs and wants in my teenage days and now I realized that why some of my personal wants where so dragging. I realized that the household products she bought for us are high end and I did not realized until we were the ones holding the money. Above all else, I realized that these sacrifices were made all because she loves us and she wants us to give what is the best for us.

About my mom

My mom’s name is Leticia Adeva born on December 8, 1957, second of the five and unica hija, Sagittarius and she was born and raised in Iligan City the same with me. She gave birth to me at the age of forty where she told me I am a menopausal baby. I am the youngest child and most love of all (self- proclaimed).
She is a nurse by profession, a lovely wife, and a mother of four. She is the best in cooking and baking where she also serves as my mentor and my number one fan. She is a gutsy mother who does anything for the betterment of her family, I salute her for that. She is so generous that she always extend her hand to other family and she is so energetic that she can do a lot of things in the day just to look for money as she always said to me when I always complain why I could not see her in the house. To me, she is a supermom.

This is a short poem I made that dedicates to my mom:

My supermom

My mom is a superhero,
She was my backbone when I was sick
She was my manager when I needed guidance
She was my blanket when I needed a hug
She was my mentor when I knew nothing
She is my hero.

My mom is my role model, I have acquired some of her skills and traits that makes my personality balanced with introvert and extrovert. Thanks to my Momma.

I did mention that my mom is the best in cooking and baking. She is my Chef Mama. She likes to experiment and make new recipes on her own. We could enjoy the food every Sunday when she cooks and most of all during Christmas, she makes the best fruit cake and we had a fruitcake that is twenty one years old. We ate that cake before they went abroad. Her sweet crema de fruita that the she makes for special orders and lastly her famous chocolate loaf where she gives to friends and relatives. Her chocolate loaf is what everybody usually misses when they visit our house every Christmas. Christmas was the best season for me because I could get the chance to smell the scent of hundred chiffons we cater, I could hear plastics and scotch tapes used for wrapping cupcakes.

My mom is a giver. She always gives to everyone she knows, she has never ending support to everyone that makes me jealous sometimes. Since she is a generous woman, we always receive blessings from anyone. Even today that she is not here in the house we could still receive the blessings that she deserved.
She is gutsy. My mom is very courageous to fight for her rights and she knows a lot in life just to survive in the world and just to make sure there is food to offer on the table. Imagine throughout my life I have seen her entering different business much more when I was still unborn.

She is energetic. When she was here in the country, she could spend time with us, she can have her Zumba, she can go to a bank for hours, and she could do a lot things within the day.

And most and foremost my mom is the friendliest I have known, I envy her that she has the confidence to talk to anyone. This is the trait I am now working all the time because for me it’s nice to engage with people, build connections, and share wisdom. I love her for being friendly to anyone because even the low-class workers are blessed from her generosity. She is a great role model.

With the hardships I see to my mom and dad, I want to work hard and hustle twenty-four-seven to retire my parents as soon as possible.

I dedicate this song to my Mother

Mama

by spicegirls

Every time I hear this song I would really be carried away and be teary at the same time because I could relate to the message of the song

Date

by Jollibee TVC

Since I really love my mom and dad I really cried to this TV commercial. This Jollibee commercial struck me the most because for me it reminds me that I don’t want to lose one of them.

To my mom,
I am sorry for being a naughty boy sometimes I give you more stress. I am sorry for always complaining and now I understand. I am sorry for sometimes I am ungrateful for what you give to me and lastly, I am sorry for disobeying you when I have my own goals in life.
I love you for all the sacrifices and efforts you have made and I am thankful that I have you.
love,
Laloy

They said that at this specific age, this is what an individual say to their mom, but to me, it is different;

This is my version of it:

at the age 10- Mom, I love you
at the age 15- Mom, you are so annoying,
at the age 16- I want to leave the house
at the age 18- Mom, you were right,
at the age 19-Mom, you forgive me?
at the age 20- Mom, I love you so much!

I love my one and only Super Mom!
