A day for Mothers - A Celebration

Yesterday, Dani's back to her own self and I seem to be feeling a little better myself. What's the magic word?

SM.

Once hubby mentioned the magic word, it seemed like a dark cloud has lifted. Exag. We were off with a good start. Dani and I were able to do our morning weekend walk. She sang while I push her bike. She sang as we were on the swing. She even insisted she walk some part on our way back home.

We were able to buy a gift for the baptism we'll be attending this saturday. I was able to find our family outfit for dani's birthday.

We had our lunch at Max's, hubby's treat for yours truly. Dani ate a little of pancit canton and sipped some chicken soup. Some is better than none.

If not for the expenses we've incurred, i could say:

Some days are good bad. Some days are better.

Happy Mother's Day!

Getting softer

i wish i'm talking about my skin but no, i'm talking about my heart. i'm getting softer by the day. i mean, even before i am a cry baby whenever watching sappy movies but motherhood has this effect on me. either i can relate or scared or hopeful that such things will happen to my family.

anyways, i watched the movie: in the land of women last night and i swear my eyes swelled. there's this scene where sofia (meg ryan) told carter that she has to go inside now because her daughter might give her the look that says she's the most embarrassing person in the world. she hates that look coz prolly she gave the same look to her mother. i guess with all the drama my mother and i had during my teenage years, i can so relate :D it made me wonder how my relationship with dani will turn out. i sure as hell will try to make it better though and be there for her as much as i can.

it really is true that parents, even though they are not always right, are only looking out for our best interest. i appreciate my parents more now that i myself am a parent.
