A few days before mother's day...
aI'm posting my Mother's Day greeting early, because I might not have time to blog on Sunday.
Here goes...
My mom was 19 (going on 20) when she had me. She had my sister 10 months later. My brother was born a few weeks before she turned 24. Another sister was born when she was 29. Our youngest brother came into the world when she was 36.
My sister turned 26 last week. I'm turning 27 in a little over a month. Neither of us has a kid yet.
Wow... By the time my mom was my age, she already had 3 kids. We were in school by then (my brother was about to enter pre-school). I can't even imagine having to worry about anyone except myself.
Mom - and Dad na rin - gave up their youth and whatever dreams they might have had, just so they could raise me and my siblings as well as they could. They were just kids themselves. Yes, like most human beings they made a lot of mistakes. They also had a help from other people (my grandparents, titas, titos and the yayas) but, somehow, we turned out ok...
Mommy.... Thank you...
