May 6, 2014 at 9:52 amI am a young mom to my 2 little cute kids ( a 3yrs old girl and a 10months old babay boy). I’ve been working full time and after work I took charge of them. It’s really a busy schedule everyday yet I make sure that I have time for them eventhou it means 5 mins of my life. The only worries I have is disciplining them since I’m not around them round a clock. I hope someday they may realize that we are working ( me and my hubby) in order to give them what they need. Favorite mommy quote is “Anyone can have a child and call themselves a parent. A real parent is someone who puts that child above their own selfish needs and wants.”

May 6, 2014 at 10:03 amI am a working and loving mom to two adorable boys. Although my day is occupied with work and house chores, I see to it that i still have free time to bond with my kiddos. They make me smile in the simplest ways. They are still young and I know I still need to go through a lot as days pass by but I have no fears for I am ready because God is there to guide me. And all that I am as a parent is all because of my mom who never fail to guide me through and I will never forget she always share me her favorite saying: Every Accomplishment starts with the decision to try. That makes me more of a stronger mom.

May 6, 2014 at 10:14 amI am a mom of a two-year old boy. I am a working mom but I make sure that I devote all my available time for my son. I really like doing stuffs with him – studying, playing, taking a bath, etc. I worry not mostly about his future but more on how he would enjoy his childhood while growing to be an obedient and happy kid.

May 6, 2014 at 10:30 amI am a SAHM to my 3-year-old son. I just hope my son would grow up to be a God-fearing, principled/honorable and confident man. My worry is basically how to help him become one. 🙂

May 6, 2014 at 11:31 amMy mom has two children – my sister and me. She wakes up at 6AM, prepares breakfast and lunch for us before she leaves the house for work at 7:15AM. She works as an accountant in a auto supply company where she stays until 5:30PM. She commutes day in and day out from Monday to Saturday and we understand her struggle just to provide us everything we need. This is why we love her so much even when she also has some flaws. She fears and worries about our safety since we are both girls. My favorite mother’s quote is “Bakit love ka ng mommy mo?” She often asks us that question (more than five times in a day) as she feels happy hearing our answers. Well, she deserves sweet and loving words anyway and anytime!

May 6, 2014 at 11:52 amI have 4 grown up kids and now have 1 grand daughter. My fear now is when my 3 other older kids will get married since I cannot considered them as young anymore; so that all our hard earn stuff will be taken care by the next generation

May 6, 2014 at 3:00 pmI’m a work-at-home mom to my 17-month old daughter. I worry about not giving enough balanced meal to my toddler because I don’t know how to cook but I’m open to learning.

May 6, 2014 at 7:23 pmI am a mother of two beautiful and wonderful daughter Kyla and Isay… They are my joy and my pride. As a mother I make it sure that I will take care of everything in the house, specially in my children, their food to eat, their dress wear, almost everything I do my best to hands on on all their needs. I am a loving mom, and at the same time I also discipline when they done something wrong, explaining everything and set some example. I love being a mom and I am so proud of my kiddos. I am thankful to God that He gave me this two amazing kids.

May 6, 2014 at 8:25 pmI’m a mom to a 7 year old girl. My day starts at around 5:45 am. my husband is a corporate slave! haha! While me work around 8:30-5:30 as an accountant. As a mom, I let my girl discover things for herself. I’m the go-ahead-try-it-but-dont-hurt-yourself type of mom! I think its working.. My girl is so smart and very curious with everything. She is also an artist in a making. Sometimes I run out of answers to her question like the other day she asked me: mama what is wasp? I thought its a verb, just found out its an insect! LOL I told her let’s ask google?
I want her to grow as a happy, kind and responsible citizen.
My favorite mom quote is ” HOME is where the MOM is!”
I truly believe that a kid will always feel at home wherever her mom is. Even if he/she grows old and have a family of his own. He will always look for the homey feeling of mom’a cooking and house blend tea 🙂

May 7, 2014 at 1:00 amIm not a mommy yet, but can I join for my mom? 🙂
My mom is definitely the “sigurista and metikolosa” haha! She wash our clothes perefecly (since I cannot do the washing-washing like hers), she also cooks very delicious food everyday and ensure that we eat healthy, she cleans our house in every side she can, and she’s the best for me. even if we argue sometimes, she’s always there to love us unconditionally 🙂
By and large, mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacationless class.

May 7, 2014 at 1:51 pmHi Mommy Pehpot! I am a full-time mom to a 25-month old boy. We usually start the day with a 30-minute walk around the subdivision. Then we play his toy cars, read picture books and watch videos of nursery rhymes. My son is a delayed talker and still doesn’t know how to use the potty. Sometimes I feel that I am not doing my best as a mother. I am afraid that my son will not grow up to be a good person and that we won’t be able to give him everything that he needs especially the best education.
Amidst all the trials of motherhood, especially now that I am having a hard time feeding my little boy, my mom said to me: Minsan mararamdaman mo na hindi ka mabuting magulang dahil lang sa mga simpleng bagay katulad ng hindi pagkain ng anak mo. Minsan magagalit ka sa sarili mo. Basta tandaan mo lang na lahat ng mag-nanay or mag-tatay nagdadaan sa mga stage na yan, kaya sikapin mo na patawarin ang sarili mo dahil deep inside, alam mong ang kabutihan lang ng anak mo ang tanging hinahangad mo.

May 7, 2014 at 3:48 pmAt 31, being a mom of a 15month-old toddler is a tough job. I need to be at my best shape all the time physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. I have 3 main jobs everyday: a Mother to my daughter, a Wife to my husband, and an Employee. I am a mother who led my child to pray first thing in the morning, brush her teeth, feed her, give her vitamins, play with her, bathe her, and attend to her other needs before going to work. I am a wife who attends to my husband’s needs too. I am an employee that must meet the demands of my work and deliver the tasks assigned to me, aside from the hustle and bustle of the day during breaks in the office; I am expressing milk because I want to sustain my daughter’s nourishment through my milk. God designed breast milk for babies and I am glad I am able to maximize it. At home, I am grabbing the opportunity to breastfeed her since it is the bonding moment and quality time I can spent with her. My favorite mother’s quote is: “Motherhood is a choice you make every day to put someone else’s happiness and well-being ahead of your own”.

May 7, 2014 at 11:16 pmI’m not a mom myself but my 6-year-old niece stays in our home when her parents go to work. I work from home and get to spend a lot of time with her. On weekdays, we start our day together by studying Mathematics and reading. We brush our teeth after lunch, then we take a nap. After dinner, we play with flashcards, dolls, balls, and other toys. We also like spending time in the garden, watching TV, listening to music, singing, dancing, and chatting! I make sure that I am a good role model to her because she tends to imitate me. We adults really influence children a lot. I like mommy blogs because even if I don’t have a child, I care for, nurture, and teach my niece).

May 8, 2014 at 5:22 amHi. I have a son who is grade 4 this SY. I am now preparing my son’s need for the school. I am worrying about his uniform because he have to change from short to pants so all his regular 4 uniforms will be change as well his PE pants. Whew! Well, anyway, my favorite Nanay’s saying is “Mag- aral ka nang mabuti at nang ikaw ay mskapagtapos at may marating ka sa buhay”.

May 8, 2014 at 6:09 amI am a proud Nanay of 3 kulilits, 2 boys and a girl, 14,13,11 in sequence. Full time Nanay for 11 years now. Worries madami but syempre praying ease the tension. I am a tough but cool Nanay. Saying NO for me is final but rewarding them for a job well done lifts everything around my kids its not totally they need to excel but for me appreaciation is a big must to booster my kids confidence. It’s a 24/7 always day for me pero pag school off…yeheyyyyyyyy….pahinga galore ako! Naisip ko yung laging sinasabi sa akin ng Nanay ko…”Ang laki sa layaw karaniwa’y hubad
sa bait at muni’t sa hatol ay salat;
masaklap na bunga ng maling paglingap,
habag ng magulang sa irog na anak.”
…kasama ito sa tula ng Florante at Laura…that kids should be brought up not too loose, not too tight…kalma lang with much love coz at the end of each day…tayo pa ring mga magulang ang mag-aani ng tagumpay sa pagpapalaki ng ating mga anak….Haba Mommy Phepot…hehehheh.

May 8, 2014 at 7:26 amI have only one kid and we call her ER. I usually wake up earlier than her around 7am coz i still need to prepare for work (I’m a WAHM). She would wake up at 8am and I would prepare milk for her. She would get her tablet or watch animated films like Finding Nemo, Frozen, etc. I would feed her while watching her favorite movie and prepare her things coz Lolo would pick her up at 10am. She need to stay at her Lolo’s coz hubby and I still have work. And this is our usually day.
My fear is if we would be able to raise her well since kids nowadays are different. They are so smart and computer literate and how much they are so exposed to the cyber world. We truly need to guide her all the way.
And this is my favorite quote from an anonymous author: A mother’s love is instinctual, unconditional, and forever.

May 8, 2014 at 2:18 pmI’m a new mom having an 8 mos. baby and 3 mos. in my womb. Still in the process of adjustments but my life changed into the real world when they came. She’s so active and jolly, sometimes I get tired to follow and guide her because she keeps on crawling and climbing seems having an unlimited energy. I love her attitude as early as this age I saw in her a very approachable, a friendly, a sweet and a good daughter. Hope she grown up as a religious and a family oriented. I’ll train her to be strong that when the time comes I’m not in her side she knows how to fight and stand alone.

May 8, 2014 at 2:21 pmI have a 3 year old son one and only hehe sobrang over protective ako as a mom kasi nga nag iisa at muntik mawala kasi talagang hirap ako nong nagbubuntis pa lang sa kanya! Makulit sobra pero okay lang kasi siya langa ng nagpapasaya sa akin dalawa lang kami lagi sa bahay. Ang sabi sakin ng nanay ko noon na mawala na lahat huwag lang ang anak kaya pakabantayan ko daw ang anak ko siya lagi ang uunahin bago ang iba.
