Mommy Passionista

My grandparents’ love story was the greatest I’ve ever witnessed. I remember how they cared for each other when they were still alive. They still held each other’s hands at age 80+. I was always close to tears when I was watching my lola feeding my bedridden lola with his trembling hands.

And that made me believe that ‘happily ever after’ can still happen. And that motivated me to go an extra mile to make it happen.

We all want someone to love and to love us back… someone to spend the rest of our life with… someone to build our dreams with… someone to grow old with…

i wasn’t feeling well since yesterday afternoon. i even fell asleep while i was sitting on the bed while watching tv with my husband and babies having some snacks and playing together. but i was trying to brush off the heavy feeling. i couldn’t be sick because no one else would take care of my kids.

i woke up this morning feeling a little lightheaded and having a sore throat. so i just gargled some salted lukewarm water to soothe my throat and just did some stretching. but i don’t feel any better now. i still have to do a ton of chores today. and being sick will never be an excuse.

i remember one time, i was vomiting the whole night. i think i’ve eaten something that really upset my stomach. i was already feeling so weak and was begging to be taken to the hospital. but that couldn’t be possible because the kids are already asleep and no one would look after them. so i just prayed for me to feel better.

hay, MOTHERS JUST DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE SICK.
