Mother's Day without my Mama

I went to bed around 4 in the morning and went up at about 9. It was gloomy and I felt like not going out of my room. But since auntie and I had to go to church, I forced myself out of the bed and did what was necessary.

As usual, we were late for church. Auntie really has this thing about time management. She is always late that even uncle has told us that she would be late for her funeral. Well, it’s just this “Filipino Time” that she has in her blood. That Filipinos are always late but for me, auntie is from the future. She just happens to be playing with time and enjoying every bit of it. Hahahah

Anyway, after the mass, auntie and I had lunch with my cousins, Kathleen and Jacky. It was great as auntie was very happy considering that she has seen her girls on mother’s day, celebrating. They went shopping and just spent time with each other. And for me, I am just the one who carried their stuff.

Thinking about it just makes me miss my mama more. I know we have in a way “adjusted”, having not there for each other on mother’s day just make me sad. I know as we had a chat yesterday about this day and she was quite not ok about it. Actually, she was teary eyed. *sigh.
