NANAY NA AKO 3

 until you stay home with your babies 24/7 everyday, you don't know how important a break is and to feel appreciated.

NANAY NA AKO 2

 

NANAY NA AKO 1

 

Kung ang epekto ng aking pagsilang ng sanggol ay ang malaking pagbabago sa aking itsura, pagtaba, pagkakaroon ng stretchmarks, pagiging panget sa paningin ng iba - okay lang. Ang pagiging isang ina ang pinakamagandang nangyari sa aking buhay at hinding hindi ko yun ipagpapalit sa kahit ano.

NANAY NA SI YANG

 Minsan, namessage ko yung kaibigan ko.

"Mi, alam mo minsan gusto ko na din magtrabaho. Gusto ko na din kasi makabalik sa hanapbuhay para makatulong ako financially dito sa bahay." 

 Yung sagot nya nakapagpabago sa perspective ko.

"Enjoyin mo muna. Yung anak nyo, minsan lang yan bata. Yung mga panahon na yun, yung childhood nya, di mo na yan maiibalik. Ang pera, kikitain mo pa. Mabilis ang panahon. DI MO NAMAMALAYAN, may sarili na yang buhay. Kaya enjoyin mo lang muna."

That's when I realized na..

Biyaya talagang maituturing yung 24/7 nagagabayan ko yung anak ko.

Yung naiaayos ko yung gamit nya bago pumasok sa school.

Yung naihahanda ko ang pagkain nya breakfast, lunch at dinner.

Yung ako ang nagpapatulog sa kanya.

Madami pa din namang paraan para tumulong kay Mister sa bahay. Sa panahon ngayon, madaming ways para kumita. Sipag, tyaga at diskarte lang.

At the end of the day ang mahalaga:

Ginagawa mo ang lahat ng makakaya upang maging isang mabuting ina at asawa.

LET US COME TO JESUS CHRIST

 "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” - Matthew 11:28-30

When we come to God, He promised that He will give us rest. It means that He will give us a solution to everything that troubles us or any kind of problem we may that causes our suffering. And He will not just give us rest but He will also teach us to succeed in life. So let us come to Jesus expecting to receive great things from Him!

NO ONE EVER WARNED HER

About how much she'd miss.

While doing the work that she loves.

And no one ever told her,

How hard it might feel,

Putting her dreams on pause,

To nurture her world in her lap.

And no one ever mentioned,

That loving her baby,

Might not always equal

'Loving every moment' of motherhood.

And no one ever admitted,

That mothers cry too.

When their world feels so new,

Just like their baby's does.

And because nobody told her,

She thought she couldn't say it.

So she instead spoke her secrets,

In every moment she was alone, but not.

In the quiet hours, she whispered,

Before this, I was someone else, and I miss her so very much.

In the lonely moments, she spoke,

I don't want to be anywhere else, but it's hard to not have a minute alone.

In the moments when everything else was on pause, she shared

Someday I'll get back to those other things I love; I can't wait to show you who else I am.

And in the moments when she was missing, she softly assured,

I love you so much, and though this is so very hard, I'll never regret a minute with you.

And as she told her story to her baby -

The one she thought she couldn't say,

She began to understand the truth about motherhood. The one that no one had told her:

That it is a complicated but lovely journey, full of moments of missing, but lifetimes of love. Where there is boundless happiness, but also some sorrow. And that it is always, always okay to feel both.

And she realized that there was nothing wrong with her story - Because although she hadn't heard one like it before, it was honest. And it was real.

And she was free, and she was happy.

And her baby was happy, too.

To be loved by a mother who had so much to share. But most of all, love 💗
