How do you define a FRIEND?

I have different set of friends. From different stages of my life. They came from different walks. Different folks, different strokes.

"Ako na yata yung taong maraming best friends..." Let me share them with you.
  • I have an ultimate best friend whom I also call my HUBBY. I share with him almost everything. The thing that I can't share with him is my bathroom (when I say MY, it is really MINE!). Kung pede lang maglagay ng sign na bilog na may palda sa labas ng master's bedroom toilet namin, I think I would have done that. It's not for anything else. Even after 3 years of marriage and 2 years of bf/gf relationship, it's still hard for me to have "bathroom talks" when I am doing number 2. Unlike some people I know na kahit anong "baho", oh well!
  • My other best friend, I grew up with her. She's my tita E. She's my idol! In a lot of ways, in a lot of things! She's the neatest person I know! Yun lang, saksakan ng iyakin mwahahaha pero I love her so much! Though we had our share of rows e indi na namin inaalala (pareho naman kaming makakalimutin e).
  • Then, my two best friends from college. Our lives are entwined no matter where we are. It is as if time and space are not variable. We are three people with souls linked. No matter the sequence. E kung ano nadaanan ng isa, for sure, madadaanan ng isa pa. Though I am far away from them, I can feel them whereever they may be. Creepy! But then, that's our friendship! Creepy to the max! Pero joyride!
  • Amazingly, I met another three great people here in Singapore. I call them my best friends as well. Two I share LIFE with, the third I share PASSION. Let me expound. My friendship with BF#1 is deep because we have the same life now, married life with kids. This person is very quiet in nature but once you get to know her, she's one person whom you don't want out of your life. While BF#2, we met through our hubbies then later on became close. Paumagahan pedeng katsika sa kahit anong bagay. Sila ng hubby nya ay ang second family namin dito. Lastly, BF#3, I share creativity, longings and weird coincidences. We're not physically close now but she's the first one whom I talk to after my husband. Tsaka dami nya quirks e, her life is also a series of adventures. Kaya it's like a roller coaster ride!

Thank God for friends!

Confession

Being a Mom.  Sometimes I feel as I am not cut out for it. Too much work.  Too much responsibility.  Too much worry. Worry that Ate T is taking the bus today.  Ate A's tooth is still in there and the new one has already come out.  Baby A has colds and is screaming and wants to cuddle. Sometimes it leaves me breathless. But When I pick up Ate T from our meeting place, I feel so proud of her because she has become independent and can commute.  Ate A's tenacity in wiggling her tooth and she's now toothless, doesn't need to go to the dentist to have it removed.  And, Baby A despite her colds still has appetite and it just feels good to hug her. God has showered me with so much love for giving me 3 wonderful girls.  It feels good being a mommy. Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Mommies!

Me! Me! Me!

Last night, I created an LO using the picture below when Bebi A happened to see it. She touched it and said "Me?!" "No, it's me!" I told her. It was really me when I was Bebi A's age. The similarities will not be able to deny that Bebi A is my daughter hahaha I just hope that my bubbly and sunny bebi will not get the mom's sumpong(s). This is one of the few baby pics that I have. I used to have 3 baby albums but one of the worst floods that hit Pinas also took away my memories. Now, this is Bebi A.

Creativity

Dawter T called me up and told me that Bebi A tore her art and made a monster out of the girl in the picture. I know that it's not being mean. Bebi A doesn't have a mean bone in her body. She just don't understand. I talked to Bebi A. Asked her to kiss and make up with her Ate, She did. Ate A told me that she went up to Dawter T and kissed her, then asked "Is this better, Ate?" Awwww... Dawter T's "smashed" art was one of her best. I was really impresed. If only I have taken a picture of it this morning. It was really beautiful. It was a portrait of a girl, by the way. I hope that Dawter T can still replicate it. I know that not all kids are alike. And, my daughters have their own endearing qualities. One's art is different from the other. Dawter T has the potential (not because I'm her mom, ok ok, it maybe because I'm her mom hahaha) and Bebi A's, well, let's just say abstract. Hehe.
