Super Woman

How do you define a super woman? Someone who is talented? Successful? Or perhaps remarkable? Those are just a few descriptions of a super woman. Yes. I believe super women exist. They are all around us and we see them every day. They are with us every time, ready to lend us a helping hand whenever we need it. We even take them for granted at times. I'm most definitely talking about our Mothers (Mom, Mama, Nanay, Mommy or whatever we call them).

Mother dearest.

Oftentimes, we forget the many sacrifices our mothers do for us. It takes a whole lot of skills & "super powers" to be a mom -- at least that's what I believe because I'm not yet even a mother. All I know is that it's never an easy job but it's also the best job there is.

In honor of all the mothers out there, we celebrate "Mother's Day"-- a day that is dedicated to moms alone. That even for just a day, we are given a chance to celebrate and give appreciation for all the goodness they have unconditionally given us all these years in our lives. In fairness to us, we never miss out on greeting Mama a "happy mother's day", though we're not big on celebrating it. That being said, I was wishing we can celebrate it with a small family gathering. Fortunately for us, mother's day and my uncle gene's birthday falls on almost the same date so we are having a "handaan"! :) 

 

Mama & me. 

Indeed this day calls for a celebration for countless reasons. For without our mothers, we wouldn't be where we are right now. We prolly won’t be the own persons that we are if our mothers have not been there for us all this time. I can actually call my mom a "super woman" for the same reason that you should call your own moms "super woman" also. I believe that title suits my mom and yours perfectly well! haha! Imagine taking care of all six of us, of course with the help of Papa but still the task was never easy. 

Words cannot describe how grateful i am to God for giving me such great parents, with their assets and imperfections altogether. So for this coming "mother's day", let us all greet our moms a happy one.. and better if we give them a hug and a kiss. :)

Happy Mother's day to all the moms out there! :)

xoxo,
bam.
