Mum's the word

Happy Mother's Day to all mommies, mommies-to-be, step-mommies, aunties, grandmas and to myself as well! Hehehe..

A huge tribute goes out to all ladies who are, and play the role as mommies..hats off, hands up and big cheers for u!

Sorry for the late wish ladies but I hope all of you had a good one with your loved ones. Well, mine didn't actually turned out well - My mom was admitted to the hospital for incessant coughs so being the only daughter at home of course I had to be there for her. And my 1-year-old daughter still didn't know the meaning of Mother's Day yet (perhaps everyday is Mother's Day for her or perhaps I should be giving her dad more hints) so it was a simple Mother's Day for me and mom at the hospital. But anyway mom has been discharged from the hospital and going for her follow-up check ups so all is good now. 


My surprise bouquet of carnations and a huge wishing card to cheer mom up..


You should see the shock on her face when I brought in the bouquet of flowers in her ward..heheh now that's what we call a grand entrance. Actually it's just a simple bouquet but being moms, they will be teary-eyed with everything. (I know I am for sure). As I have become a mother myself, being at the hospital with her wasn't a chore at all. It all starts coming back to me..all the flashback moments..when I was in hospital and mom was there for me too..growing up all mischievous and of course who else to make me into the person I am today - of course Mom..So Mom, besides the flowers and gift i gave to you, I'm not so good with words but here's a little dedication to you..


Mama by The Spice Girls


She used to be my only enemy and never let me free
Catching me in places that I know I shouldn't be
Every other day I crossed the line
I didn't mean to be so bad
I never thought you would become the friend I never had

Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood (So now)
So now I see through your eyes
All that you did was love

Mama I love you
Mama I care
Mama I love you
Mama my friend
(You're my friend)

I didn't want to hear it then but
I'm not ashamed to say it now
Every little thing you said and did was right for me
I had a lot of time to think about, about the way I used to be
Never had a sense of my responsibility

Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood (So now)
So now I see through your eyes
All that you did was love

Mama I love you
Mama I care
Mama I love you
Mama my friend
(You're my friend)
You're my friend

But now I'm sure I know why (I know why)
Why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes (I see through your eyes)
All I can give you is love (All I can give you is love)

Mama I love you
Mama I care
Mama I love you
Mama my friend

Mama I love you
Mama I care
Mama I love you
Mama my friend
(You're my friend)
Ohhh, oh mama
(You're my friend)
Ohhh, oh, ohhhhh mama 
Ohhh, oh, ohhhhh mama I'm loving You
Your Loving Me
(Continues in background) I Know Its True
Mama I love you And Garranteed
Mama I care
Mama I love you I'm Loving You
Mama my friend Your Loving Me
I Know Its True
Mama I love you And Garranteed
Mama I care
Mama I love you I'm Loving You (Loving You)
Mama my friend Your Loving Me (Loving Me)
I Know Its True (I know Its True)
Mama I love you And Garranteed 
Mama I care
Mama I love you





I was also planning for a Mother's Day activity with my daughter as well but that didn't happen so I'll try to make everyday as Mother's Day..Heheh..I always told mom that my greatest fear in life is giving birth but her assurance gave me the confidence to weather through the whole labour process. Painful! BUT oh-so-worth-it. The best pain and gift I could ever ask for..





Of course I just HAD to slit in the "Keep Calm For Mums" notebook..


How else can I keep myself sane while being a mother? ;)
