Forty-Eighth


September 19th
11:26p

I went out with the family because it was my mother's birthday yesterday. It's always nice to have meals when all the seats are taken by people you oh-so love.

Ok so I'll tell you some things about my mom.
**She's the best at telling funny stories because she's very good at making gestures and imitating people's actions. Sometimes it gets so awkward when she does that but in a very funny way. :)) There's a lot of humor in our family.
**She cooks adobong pusit like every other Friday because she knows we like it.
**She's smart. I'm not saying it because she's my mother, it's because she really is! From politics to sports, she knows a lot. From Gloria Arroyo to Barack Obama, from crosswords to Sudoku, from here to there, and much more. I often ask her random questions and she never fails to answer them. Like earlier when I asked her who did Nadal beat in the 2008 Wimbledon championships. and she yelled back, "Federer!" and then the other day when my sister asked her what Celine Dion's nationality is, and my mom answered back, "Canadian". Yea, simple random questions like those. Sometimes all I can say is, "Bakit alam mo yun?"
**She doesn't stay mad for long.
**She knows the names of my friends.
**She's crazy about Gaby.
**She wants my brother to get fatter.
**She often baby talks. She calls us "Tina and Tisha". I know. Lol
**She's just great.

Yesterday when we were in the car and talking, I heard my mother told my father, "Pag nag-asawa na yung dalawa, wala na, hindi na natin makakasama mga yan."
It's just... It's never gonna happen. Ever. No worries. I promise.

I want to greet you a happy birthday. To the best nanay one could ever have. I dunno if my mother will get to read this because she doesn't go over the internet. But if ever you come across this, I just want you to know that someday, I want to be a mother to my children just like exactly the way you are to me, to us. Thank you and I love you.
