Throwback Thursday/ Future Friday

This seldom happens.. us and our moms together.. My friendship with Fedhz and Niko is as old as this blog.. or a few months younger. During our last Fridate session at Amber, we had a trip down memory lane.. well, I met Fedhz from mylot. Niko from blog hopping…and with the birth of Sati, our friendship was sealed (along with other mommy bloggers who also became Sati’s godmother). We often hang out..before, we try to use blog events as an excuse to see each other, not anymore since we can always set an impromptu date anytime our (or my) schedule allows. But a meet up together with our moms.. that’s very rare! Actually, first time nangyari to.. ang cute di ba!?!

O, you be the judge, is it a throwback Thursday or future Friday?

Thankful Thursday

I know I already posted these photo on Mommy Pehpot Facebook Page but I still feel the need to write about it. The stress level I experienced last week was too much and receiving these goodies made me feel a lot lot better. So thank you for remembering me on Mother’s Day.. you don’t know how much it made me happy 🙂

Domex gift pack (review soon) and Jollibee Happy Plus gift from one of the kindest and most accommodating agency I have worked with. After a week of hospital food, my kids are really looking forward for a burger steak and chicken joy meal!

The Domex gift pack is perfect timing since we’ll be disinfecting the house anytime this week (that is pag keri ko ng mag linis ng bahay, Pagoda Coldwave Lotion ang drama ko eh haha)

You the Mom! pillow from Mommy Mundo. ExpoMom 2014 celebrates our proudest moments as a mom. Check out my post on how you can attend the expo this weekend.

Mother’s Day Surprise from Max’s! Waaah saktong pang tanggal ng stress ang The Spa GC and the Max’s Restaurant GC for a post mother’s day celebration.

Thank You Mom Mother’s Day Gift from P&G. And if they want to thank me for being a mom, well I have my kids to thank for giving me the chance to be a mom! Oh wait, I’ll make a longer post about that! haha

Mother’s Day Surprise For Nanay

Tomorrow is Mother’s Day and I have so many plans for my mom tomorrow, but as you know, our current situation won’t let me do that. I plan on giving her the trip she always wanted through our favorite drink: veggie smoothie.. mala wedding proposal ba ang dating. Balak ko pa nga eh gumawa ng video about her and how much we love her, tapos at the end of the video, may nakalagay na: NOW DRINK YOUR VEGGIES.. tapos as she drinks it may lulutang na papel kung san nakalagay ang itenerary niya. My mother’s dream trip is very simple, just a weekend at Banaue or Quezon or Bicol but her responsibilities with us (and my constant demand) keeps her busy and keeps her farther away from her dream trip.

You might want to ask why on the smoothie veggies? That’s our current obsession.. well.. a healthier breakfast option. Gagamitin ko pa naman sana ang aking bagong Electrolux blender to make the veggie smoothie for her surprise and capture her Delighful-E Yummy experience! kaso lang..

Of course it didn’t stop me from surprising her.. so instead of my elaborate plan, I just prepared a simple veggie smoothie here at hospital and gave the blender to her. Do you know what makes veggie smoothie so important to me? Siguro for her it’s just a simple smoothie, but for me, malaking bagay yan. It’s my way of saying na this time I will take care for her. Every morning, pag nasa bahay si mother, she will ask for her smoothie or would tell me na magtimpla na ako ng inumin namin. Feel na feel ko na ako naman ang nag-aalaga sa kanya.

She’s been very generous of her time with us and that’s the reason why I want to give back to her. Moms would really do anything for their kids..and my mother is more than that.. she sacrificed a lot for us. She always made sure that we’re happy and comfortable.. pero to extend her love to my kids, it is something that really melts my heart. The same love and care she gave us is the same love and care she is giving to my kids. Lalo na ngayon, she’s helping take care of the kids.. and there are times that she lets me sleep while she tends to my sick kids need. Tapos na siya sa mga ganitong sitwasyon di ba? Mya puyatan moments pag may sakit ang bata..kung tutuusin eh pahinga na lang sya palagi, pero she’s here with me, nakikipuyat sa akin dito hospital.

Babawi talaga ako sa kanya matapos lang ang sakitan galore dito…
