DeeWorkingMom's Video of the Week

I saw this video on Youtube and I can't help but share this with all of you, especially to our dear mothers.   This is one of the most touching videos for mothers I ever saw.   Mother's Day is everyday, I guess.

Indeed, "Life does not come with a manual, it comes with a Mother."

A MOTHER'S LOVE

by : Jim Brickman (feat. Mark Masri)

Thank you for watching over me
All of the sleepless nights you lay awake
Thank you for knowing when to hold me close
when to let me go

Thank you for every stepping stone
And for the path that always leads me home
I thank you for the time you took
to see the heart inside of me

You gave me the roots to start this life

and then you gave me wings to fly
and I learned to dream 
because you believed in me

A Mother's Love : Mother's Day Tribute for My Dear Nanay

She carried me for 9 months in her tummy.  I know how tiring it was to walk with a heavy bump, or how hard it was to lie down or to even sleep soundly having a little mover kicking inside your tummy.

She could not get enough sleep just to feed me through the nights or even to play with me until the wee hours of the evening.   She could not rest during the day just to play with me, sung me a song or read me a book.   She patiently taught me how to walk and talk, to dance and to sing, to read and to stand by my own.   Unceasingly, she took care of me despite my tantrums, quirks and demands with a smile.   

Taken on June 10, 2009 during my werdding.

However, she is more of a disciplinarian.  She taught me values and principles; instilling discipline if necessary.   She will not always tolerate me once I was stubborn, especially during my teenage years.   But she never deprived me from enjoying life and discovering my self.
