At first, I wanted to skip this week's MM because the theme was Mother's Day and I really don't have much to share about that day.
I started that day (it was actually 'night' because we were all still awake during the wee hours of the morning) with a hug, a kiss, and a greeting from hubby... The End...
Actually, I was a bit sad that day since I wasn't able to visit my Mom and give her something. I just called her up to greet her and to tell her that I love her. That's it. I also didn't receive a card or a flower from hubby **sigh** and my babies are... well, babies, so they couldn't possibly come up with a card. However, I really appreciate all the bloggers, online friends, and "offline friends" :) who extended their greetings to me. I really felt remembered with all the FB photo tagging, wall posts, and mails.
Anyway, amidst all these things, I'm proud to say that this Mother's Day, I've become a real mommy - to the bones. Haha! I've grown stronger and tougher and no matter what happens, I know I can handle anything. Why? because I'm a mommy and Mommies are simply the toughest people on earth.
P.S. Mommies, I'm going to have my first ever blog contest this June and maybe you can be sponsors. I'm giving $20 Paypal Cash on my part and ad spaces, Mommy Rose has pledged $10, Mommy Vernz offered $5, and Mommy Chris has EC credits. You can check about the blog contest theme here: http://ejcayaba.blogspot.com/

Before I started making this post, I read Mommy Chris' MM entry and she noted that we should write about why this year's Mother's Day is special for us. That is why I still decided to join in this week.
Mother's Day 2010 is indeed very special for me since this year marks my evolution into a full-pledge, hands-on, full-time, super mommy. Yes, I was the one who took care of Yana before and we never had a nanny (until now) but it was so much easier then. Though I had a full-time home based job at that time, I found mommyhood more manageable before because I only had to take care of one baby.
Now, I instantly have three babies and I've got my hands full- literally. My Yana, Yza, and Ysha made me realize all the hassles that come with the world's most rewarding but demanding job. Sometimes I just want to cry, especially if they all cry at the same time and I can't seem to choose who should I attend to first. I also barely sleep now and our financial probs have gone big time since I couldn't work properly with all the nannying I have to do...(please do share some blog monetizing tips)...
Anyway, amidst all these things, I'm proud to say that this Mother's Day, I've become a real mommy - to the bones. Haha! I've grown stronger and tougher and no matter what happens, I know I can handle anything. Why? because I'm a mommy and Mommies are simply the toughest people on earth.
