Victor Hugo wrote in Les Miserables – “He who does not weep, does not see.”

Well, this is not about sobbing for having bumbling homesick right now. Neither that I need extra money or any requirements in school, that’s why I happened to be so blogging in this jiffy. I presuppose that you almost forget what the day today is, or what’s the hurry to celebrate, or else you might be reading this tomorrow (Monday on your office if your internet connection is not sabotaged). I mean, seeing you in your office, sinking in ledgers, or drowned to keeping cash not belonging to either the two of us or even the family, or just seeing your nerves and veins as you reprimand them (since i’m here, i’m guaranteed to be excempted) on their wrong deeds and act, would you still bother to look at your calendar anyway?

Mkay. Today is the day for the superwoman – oops! I forgot that you don’t wear undies outside your clothes like wonderwoman or darna, so that won’t make you superman anyway. LOL :] (laughing out loud yan.). But though you can’t qualify for the superhero mom/nanay thing, you’ll surely be my wondermom and the best nanay that i could ever have. Saying this includes the package deal – the nagging moments, alarm clock voice first hour in the morning and unreasonable litanies. But nanay would always be like you, just caring though it seems to be hovering. Like any other nanay, you always look after the best of what we could ever be and the best that we could ever have. But unlike them, aside having you own friendster account, you always try to see to it that we are on the proper positions to look after ourselves. Independence, after all, is the greatest thing for us teens but it stills means nothing without you. And i’m quite sure that you never lacked proverbs and quotations for us to be better individuals. Sometimes, you feel like we don’t really care or listen at all to what you’re saying, but i tell you, i’ve even memorized your lines. I’m on my own right know but that doesn’t mean that I don’t need you and tatay. If fate favors me one day to have a single day with another nanay, I would never ever have a second-thought of declining the offer, coz you will always be the best nanay ever, by hook or by crook, for better or for worse.

So at this point, I want you to hear (I mean, read) 8 letters. 8 letters and this would be over.

First, t-h-a-n-k-y-o-u, for everything you did for people to see me this good, and I’m proud to say that I have the better view of the world for I am standing in the shoulders of the giants (that’s you, tatay and God). This word is too short to contain all I’m about to say but just allow me to gratify all your sacrifices and hardworks, for providing us our daily needs though the world seems to be playful of that, because they deserve a worthy thank you.

Second, i-a-m-s-o-r-r-y. I just want to apologize for my shortcomings, back fighting, and answering in an improper way, for causing you too much pain and too much disturbance. Aside from that, I know I’ve committed lots of mistakes that failed your expectations, but there you are again, right there when i needed you the most and when the world turns their crying shoulders.

Last is i-l-o-v-e-y-o-u. Though it took so long for you to hear (read nga pala.) this phrase, this would always be the best word for the best nanay. I might not be vocal about this but I’m not insensitive about it.

Life is too short, you should enjoy it. Think as much as you can of yourself for thinking now is not thinking always.

BTW (that’s by the way.) you’re doing great with your son named ‘edwin’. ^^

Happy mother’s day!

cuddles and smooches,
eduardo latino.

ps: codename ko na nay. basi isipon mo nga drama lang ni. pero tuod guid ni ya. pati lang baya. halong lang kamo dira kay ginapray taman kamu diri. God bless our family.

ps-to the second power: keep this letter to yourself.♥
