Time flies so fast, who would have thought that the crying baby just turned two years old yesterday? I still remember everything that night inside the Emergency Room. I can still feel the pain. I can still remember how I hated the nurse when she injected me at the wrong side. Oh God. I am already in pain yet she still gives me another pain to suffer 🤦. But of course I have already forgive her😊.

Moreover, I can still remember how mommy gently rub my back with care, just to comfort me. That time, I felt that my body will gonna ripped anytime soon because of the pain. My God, labor pain is not a joke 😂. I was crying. I can't seat, I can't walk, I can't stand and I don't wanna get pregnant anymore. Lol. I can still remember how I beg the nurse to bring me to the delivery room as I can't bear the pain anymore. I even see her grind at me, as she was annoyed with me🙄. I just felt that I am dying that time😂.

I can still remember how scared I am when the nurse can't find his heartbeat. I can still remember how I felt the relief when I heard him cry for the first time. Could you imagine that? I started to feel the labor cramps as early as November 05, and I deliver him at 1:14 AM of November 07, 2020. Everything seems new, as I can still remember every details that happened that night. Sigh! Time flies and I am blessed and always be blessed as he had grown up healthy ❤️.

Anyways, yesterday as I said is Garreth Grey's second birthday☺️. My plan is to buy him a cake using my earnings in Premise, so we have something dessert after dinner. He don't have any visitor's anyways, and I think he still don't know that yesterday is his birthday so I didn't feel the guilt that we don't prepare anything for him😅. Well I think it's okay not to spoil him with party's, as I believe that it's not really necessary. The important is grow up healthy, loved, cared and happy.

Then yesterday morning a blessing came unexpectedly. I was busy reading articles here in readcash when a sudden notification pop up at the top of my screen. My eyes got wide open when I saw that the notification was from G-cash, informing me that I received some amount from someone. Who wouldn't if you're not expecting anything 😊🥰.

• I got surprised!😱. I wasn't expecting that his Godmother will gonna send me any amount. I was like, what??Literally I wasn't like others. I mean, you know, some mother expect something from the Godmothers of their child when the child's birthday came and actually even in Christmas day, they seems expecting for a gift and I wasn't like that. I don't message, I don't joke and most specially I don't ask for some gifts as I know that it is not part of her responsibility as a Godmother. I get her as a Godmother for my son, because aside that she is my best friend, I can also guarantee that she would also love and care my son the way she cares for me😊. Not for the gift materials.

So I immediately open my messenger to chat her. Because honestly I feel ashamed to receive that amount as she just got married last November 28, just a week ago, and I don't give her anything as a gift since our budget was currently tight. She knows that as she was the only I trust.

• I can't say anything about her kindness.

Since our conversation was in Bisaya language (Bisaya is a native language in Visayas and some part of Mindanao here in Philippines) let me translate it using Google translator 😁.

Oh wow! The translation is terrible. Lol

Hahahahaha Suppose it was just a shocking reaction but I don't know why the translation was like that. Lol.

• Anyways, let's forget it for now since I don't know how to properly translate it into English 😂.

Furthermore, since she insisted that it was her gift for Garreth, I asked her if I can use it to buy him a cake and she said it's up to me. So I buy the cake using the money that she sent.

I told him to blow the candle after we sing the Happy Birthday song, but he got scared with the fire so he just keep on staring the candle 😂. Like he got stunned 😂.

The celebration was just so simple. We just cook a normal amount of viand since it's only us who will gonna eat. We cook Menudo and of course the pansit (rice vermicelli noodles) is always present 😂.

Closing thoughts;

I'm not a very creative person, and I'm not as sweet as others. However I am happy and always grateful that we celebrated his birthday with a good health. My wish is may God protect him always. I wish he grows up healthy and he felt being loved and cared as we always here to make him feel special. I may not a perfect mother to him, but I always gonna love him in a very special way.
