My Mother, a person I admire most

The woman I admire most is my mother. She was a discipline woman and had a kind heart. She ran a small business sewing shop while having a sari-sari which provides the family a good income.but, my mother came from middle humble family background.

My mother was born from a middle class family. Her parents didn't allow her to enrol and send her to higher level of education due to financial crisis as they said. My grandparents allowed her brother to continue their studies in school because they are the brand winner soon if they got married. That's there tradition and beliefs.

At the age of 12, my mother started to train herself to make different style of dressess, curtains, bedsheets and others just to sew and to earn money in her own. She contributed her parents for their daily life expenses and help to pursue her brothers studies. After few years, my mother decided to go to Cebu City. She met my father there and got married at 16 years of age. Following years, my eldest brother born .

My Mother is a truly a role model together with my father. She gave everything our family needs. She really love us especially her siblings namely Francis, Ma. Linoba, Maretcho, Maricel with her grandchildren Lester, Lyca, Loyd, Luis and Rodmar Liam. She sets herself as a good example to follow. I hope that, by her example, I grow up to be like her too. I love you ma. Until now I can control my eyes to make tears. I miss you so much. You are always in our heart. 😭🙏
