Mama miss na miss na kita. Minsan lang tayo magkasama, pero bawat oras, sobrang saya ko. Mahal na mahal kita. Ikaw ang the best mom. Sobrang the best mag-alaga sa mga anak at apo. Mas inuuna mo pa kami kaysa sa sarili mo. Kaya naman talagang hindi ka namin makakalimutan. Ingat ka lagi, Ma. Nandito lang ako lagi para sa iyo.

To my super mom, thank you for all your support. Even if we are countries apart, you constantly check in if we are doing well. You always remind us to save money and secure our future as early as now. Although we cannot be together this Mother’s Day, I want you to know that I love you and I am looking forward to seeing you and the family, hopefully soon. Stay healthy, strong and high spirited!

Happy Mother’s Day to the strongest woman I know, a true COVID-19 warrior, and a survivor. You’re such an inspiration, Nay. Your faith and non-stop prayers helped us para malagpasan ang pinakamalaking pagsubok sa family natin. God blessed us with a second life, and in this life, I promise to be a better daughter, and a mother to my son. Mahal na mahal kita!

Ma, thank you very much for doing your best to provide us with everything that we need and want in life. Thank you for the unconditional love and support that you never ever failed to give me. I am always feeling safe in facing the challenges that I encounter every day as a nurse because I have a mighty prayer warrior and that is you. I may not be there with you to celebrate this special day, but I want you to know that for me, I celebrate mother’s day every day because I always feel blessed to have a wonderful mom. I miss and love you so much! I hope you’re safe and healthy! See you soon, Mama.
