Proud Ate

I can never be more proud as an Ate to my three siblings.  They've grown to be beautiful and fine young ladies.  I guess, the four of us will always be testaments to how good our parents are and looking at how each of us has grown and rose above childhood caprices, mommy and daddy must have really done a good job.

Last September 29, during our Mom's birthday, I challenged them to write and post their message in Facebook.  They are not into writing as I am into it but gee, reading their works really make me proud and Mommy must have been so happy, too.  Sharing their messages below: :)

Divine's Message:

I really don’t know how to start this message of mine, will I thank you first or will I just say “Happy Birthday” and just end this. But then I realized I would like the world to know how blessed I’ am to have you, the coolest mother in this world, as my mom.

So here it goes.

Mom do you remember when you always text me “Anakko Innta agdate" ? Those times when you tell me “Kayam ata anakko, sika pay!”. Those times when you always tell me “I LOVE YOU” every time you end our phone conversation? Those times when you and dad do those "corny" and "cheesy" stuff in front of us? Those times when you keep on calling just to know where I am? Those times when you won’t sleep unless I’m home? Those times when you hugged me before we go to sleep? Those times when you immediately wipe those tears from your eyes just so we can’t see that you’re hurting? Those were the times mom when I realized that I’m highly favored because God has given me best mother in this world.

You see mom, those simple things that you do are the things that made my sisters and I see this imperfect world in a different light. Those were the times when you unconsciously taught us to live our lives to the fullest but still in the presence of God. Thank you mom for your love that will never end. 
This day is your day mom and the only prayer that I have for you is this, may God answer all your prayers and may He continually make you a blessing not only to us but to every person you meet.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY! I LOVE YOU ! MUAH

Merryl's Message:

Ma,you of all people knows that writing is not my forte but i'll try my best to put into words how much i appreciate the things you have done and are doing for me,for us. I may not be good at words but i hope through this i may be able to express how much i love u and how grateful i am to God because He gave the most wonderful woman to be my mother.

You're my best shopping buddy because you pay for the things i get(haha). You're my no.1 listener when i need someone to hear all my dilemmas in school. You're my no.1 defender whenever divine teases me about us going to graduate at the same year. And lastly, you and dadsung were the first to believe that in the future,i will succeed in all my endeavors.

Thank you ma for never getting tired of me. Thank you for giving me the best example of being a mother and surely when i'll have my own children, i know it will not be that hard for me to raise them because you've shown me how it should be done. Thank you for loving us dearly. And ma, I love you so much. Just wait a little more, you and daddy, my sisters and I will be the sweetest fruits of your love and hard work. Happy birthday Mommy! I love you to the fullest.

April's Message

Looking at myself and at my siblings now, I am amazed on how you managed to raise us all. I know it wasn't easy 4 u to divide your time.It wasn't easy 4 u to travel from Quirino to 2ge,2ge to manila,manila to Quirino and back to 2ge again just to spend time with us. You even had an accident by doing that but still,it didn't stop u from being the good mother that you are. You've shown us courage and when things seem hopeless,we draw our strength from you. There were times when we felt afraid but we never wavered because we knew that you are always there for us. You never fail to cheer us up and affirm us that we can be the best in everything we do and true enough, the best of who we are comes from you. You are a wondermom and know that all your efforts and sacrifices are appreciated. You have given more than enough and it is my prayer that we can also make you proud as a mother. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM and know that I love you so much. You are the best,nothing and no one can ever replace you in my heart.
