Repost: My Other Mother

By | Today's Quote, Tributes | 2 Comments

 

This was one of my first posts in my website in January 2007.  I am reposting here again – as we remember her today and always.  It has been 6 years.  We love you Mom, thank you for watching all of us from Heaven.  I gave this plaque to Mom Carmeling one Mothers Day occasion, I bought it in Rustan’s and I think it’s a beautiful one

Mom has lived a full and gracious life. She made sure she prepared herself and accepted God’s will for her.

Though we prayed and wished we could still spend more time with her, we also prayed to stop Mom’s pain and not to let her suffer. God has truly blessed Mom.

When I started going out with James in 1986, Mom immediately treated me as part of the family.

Nana took very good care of Jaime and Javier. We all love her very much and we will miss her! But we are happy that she is now in a better place.

Advice from Tito Mandy’s Mom

By | Today's Quote | No Comments

Mom and her Dad ( Lolo ) always have their moments when they seem to always have a secret meeting! 🙂  I manage to capture them most of the time. This one was from Tita Tess

Mom was telling Lolo the advice from Tito Mandy’s mom.  I think it is such great advice, I am sharing this with all of you and maybe a good new year’s message 🙂

1.) Kung may gusto ka, BILHIN MO NA!

2.) Don’t invest LONG TERM, Baka PATAY KA NA! 🙂

3.) What your apo likes, bigay mo na ngayon! ( I told Mom, what about ANAK? haha!! )  

4.) Kung binigay ka ng anak mo, bigyan mo rin anak mo!

5.) Go travel and do what you want to do while you can still do it.  There will come a time when you cannot do it na
