Spending BCH for my Mom's special day

Hello lovely souls! Finally our connection is restored after 3 days of being off. I was actually expecting it to be fixed by Monday however the technician didn't came. Yesterday morning I once again called the customer service to follow up but the answering machine just repeat the exact words it told me the other day when I tried to reach the customer service. Fortunately though, after around 30 minutes or so, someone called my name in front of our gate. I knew right there and then that the technician came to fix and restore our connection. I called my sons to bring the two dogs upstairs because I am afraid they might bite the technician and that would cause another problem. The technician came inside to check what was the problem and easily detected that it has something to do with the wirings. After changing the wiring, our internet is back. YAY!

Now that our internet connection is back I can now bingewatch some of my favorite shows that I have missed watching the past days. But before that, today is my mom's birthday! I have to greet her first. Honestly speaking I am not really close with my mother. We didn't have a special bonding or whatsoever when I was growing up because I have this feeling that she cared for my two other siblings more than me. I am a middle child by the way so I guess the middle child syndrome is true. My parents were separated back when I was as young as 3 years old and they got reunited when I was 9. That's the time my younger brother was conceived. However, their relationship has been toxic as years goes by and separated for good, might be one of the reasons I am not attached either with my father or mother. But even though that was our situation, I have learned to respect both and love them equally. Whenever I went home to our province, I make sure to visit and spend my precious time with them together with my kids and the last time I went back home was on my father's 60th birthday in 2019.

So this year my mama is turning 59 and hopefully I can go home on her 60th birthday next year. Since I can't be with her personally this year too, I planned to give her a little surprise. My original plan was to send her a flower bouquet and a cake. I messaged my sister in law and let her do the job since I am at Manila. Last Sunday I sent a message to her regarding my plans and she agreed to it. While I was browsing my timeline on my fb account, the money bouquet caught my attention, with that I asked my sis in law if she knew someone who is making money bouquet in their place, luckily the one that she asked about the flower bouquet is making that one too. The 1 dozen rose flower bouquet costed 1000 pesos and I was planning to give my mother an additional money for her birthday, so I thought the money bouquet would be a better alternative than the flower. The next morning I sent my sis in law 4000 pesos via gcash. The 2400 is for the money bouquet, the 600 is for the cake, and then the remaining money is for the additional food which they can bring to my mother's house since I know my mom would always have a little celebration for her birthday.

I am pretty excited what will my mother reactions about my little surprise because this is going to be my first time to do it. Last year she was so thoughtful that on her birthday she sent money to us because Anthony hasn't back to work yet and in return I made a homemade steam chocolate cake for her. This year,although my husband is allowing me to spend his hard earned money to buy something for my mom, I am a little hesitant to do it. So since I am earning extra from here and at noise, I am happily spending it for my mama's special day. The amount I sent to my sister in law for today's special celebration was from bch holding. Isn't it pretty amazing? Thanks bch for fulfilling my dream to make my mother's birthday extra special.

Anyway, my wish for my mom is to have a healthy body and have a longer life. She have been into a lot of hardships and up until now she is working hard in order to have a comfortable life. I know she is now happy with her partner and I am truly happy for her. My other wishes for her will be personal.😅

That's for today's article. Thanks for reading and coming at my post. God bless us all! ❤
