Wow! It's been a while since I've posted something here. Almost one year na pala! I guess I've just been busy with pregnancy and then giving birth and then taking care of my now 4-month old baby.
Hmmm, you might be wondering what's new in my life that prompted me to be here again.
Well, wala naman gaano....
Kasi kaninang umaga, habang tinutulungan ko si Yuan na maligo, bigla na lang...
Yuan: Mommy....
Me : Yes?...
Yuan: Ang ganda mo.
He said it in a tone na hindi sheepish, hindi excited, hindi patanong and walang ibang kasunod na salita, na parang wala lang, para lang siyang nagkwekwento. So it came as a nice surprise to me to hear such a compliment from my son lalo na't wala namang special na dahilan, hindi naman kami nag-away, hindi naman ako malungkot, and routine na naman namin na paliguan ko siya, it was just an ordinary time of the day.
So I said "Thank you" and then trying to fish for more specific compliments I asked:
"Bakit mo naman nasabing maganda ako?" (syempre all smiles na ko niyan)
And he said, "Eh maganda ka eh"
And that's it, end of topic.
Hindi ko na pinush yung question ko, tinanggap ko na lang na maganda ako! hahaha! baka makulitan sa akin, magbago pa siya ng isip eh! hehe
Pero to those of you who have heard the way Yuan speaks, you would agree that those simple sentences sounded really, really sweet! :)
And to my fellow moms, you know how heavenly it feels to receive compliments from our children.
So yun lang... on the first day of February 2008, my 5-year old son told me na maganda ako, and I believed him...because children don't lie!!! hehehe,joke!
Seriously, I believed him, not because I find myself pretty but because what my family thinks of me is what really matters to me. :)
