This week’s theme for Mommy Moments is part of the family.. Click on the badge for more pics. I may not be around later because I will be meeting Niko..then off to a very special event.. please pray for me 🙂
Anyway.. here are some snaps of my kids with their cousins and their aunts..
This one with my youngest sister, they call her Mamu.. yeah, yeah, Mamu is abuela or lola in Spanish, but my older sister insisted the kids have a unique name for each of them.. The picture below is with my oldest sis, whom they call Bear. When Kayil was born, he can’t stop smiling when my sis is around, hence she got the name bear. She is like a teddy bear tot he kids that always made them smile. My sister who comes next to me (I am the second oldest) is Boo or Mama Boo. She got the name Boo because her college classmates call her Boosaw.. and we don’t know why. Another thing, she wear eyeglasses like me, malaboo mata nya, hence the name BOO. Our youngest brother, the kids fondly call him, Totey, simply because that is how Kayil calls him when he was younger (bulol na Tito Noel). Now the problem comes when they got their kids.. what will they call ME? And since my nephew is my god child, and so I became Mommy Ninang (godmother)
And lastly, this one with my helper.. she has been with us for 2 months now and I have no complain against her. I think I find the best helper in the world. The kids love her and she has a very happy disposition in life. She never fails to smile, almost every minute.. and never complains about life and the trials she has been. She is a like an older version of me and I hope she would last a long time with us. She is the only helper (based on the recent helpers I had) that I trust with my kids. I can leave my kids with her without worrying. And yes, I consider her part of the family..
