Since I was born, my mother and my siblings are my eyes opener in the world.
Yes,
You read it right. Only my mother and my 2 sisters raised me to this world. But, there’s a but, my father visit me in our current residency last 2006 to see me and my sisters. That time, my mother is a domestic helper abroad to sustain our financial aspects and supports us with our future.
The reason why he visited us that time was because he was hired as a personal driver for a running Mayor in our city. That is why he got a chance to say hello to us. He stayed with us for 2 months but when his candidate lost for candidacy he left again and never comeback.
2008 came, a bombarding news made us hysterical in our home and my mother went home suddenly from Jordan as they deliver the news of the death of my father. I was 11 years old that time. A 5th grader son who just have 2 months moment with his father for his entire life.
I was shocked and do nit know what to do. I cried so much and my sisters too. But my mother? She shows us how brave she is. She did not cry in-front of us. I just heard her crying many times in the bathroom whenever I am waking up in the morning.
That moment, she raised us in double effort, She went back to abroad to work again and I and my siblings stayed to our grandmas house.
7 years. That’s the duration my mother endure to save money for our future. She went through a hard rock as she raised us. Now, she used her extra income to built a mini grocery in Pasig City Mega Market. That’s our main source of income today.
Together with my second sister, she helps my mother manage the store. Gladly, both of us graduated in College. And we are proud of it. It’s because and result of the hard work of our mother.
She is our hero. Our saviour. Our one and only mother who raised us with love and respect and discipline.
It’s now our time to give back all the sacrifices she went through while raising thru helping her in her needs. Thru spoiling her with her wants and giving what she desire.
We love our Mom. I love my Mom.
And she’s my only hero and only mother in this world.
I thank God by giving us a mother like her.
