Novel & Cerita Motherhood Statement

tita Jackie clap her hands. All those cliches, those things you hear about having a baby and motherhood, all of them are true. And all of them are the most beautiful things I ever experience. “The amazing thing about becoming a parent is that you will never against your own first priority. You’ll learn to lower your expectations about what you can accomplish in a day. Some days, it will be all you can do to keep baby safe, warm, and fed. And that will be enough.

Mahabang katahimikan ang namayani sa amin. Napatitig ako sa mga bituin sa langit. "I know it takes a lot to be a mom. It takes strength to show up each and everyday, even when you don't think you can. It takes patience to teach your children all the things they need to know. It takes empathy to feel their pain when they don't have the words. It takes forgiveness to forgive yourself every time you got it wrong.

He was just staring at his mother with a stoic face. Nilingon kami ni Asteria. “It wasn't in my plan to love.” Bawat salita niya ay binigkas nang may diin na tila sigurado siya sa kaniyang mga sinasabi. “I didn't know how to, yet after carrying two souls, I learned.” Muling binalik ni Asteria ang kaniyang mga mata sa lalaking humihinga na lang gamit ang mga makina. “Being a mother is a never-ending march. You'll get tripped, yet you would not afford to fall for a wound that your children might get. Your fall is their harm.”

Sa simpleng haplos na iyon, gusto niyang ipadama na ligtas na ligtas ito sa piling niya, at hinding-hindi niya hahayaang mag-isa itong harapin ang mga takot nito. “You care too much, you love too much—and that’s already more than enough. Way more. You think you’re unprepared, but you’ve already been showing me what kind of mother you’ll be. Gentle. Protective. Brave. Don’t let your past define your future. Don’t let her shadow block the light that you’ve created in your life.”

Nawala ang kinang sa kanyang mga mata at napatitig na lang sa dalaga. “You know, Evony, you are the bravest person I’ve ever known.” Sandaling napaangat ang kilay ng dalaga sa papuring iyon. She just shrugged it off with a tight smile. “I don’t know what to say, sir. Hindi ako sanay tumanggap ng ganyang komento.” “Being a mother is gonna be a rocket science,” patuloy ni Roman. “Given your situation right now, mas lalong hindi iyon magiging madali para sa ‘yo lalo na’t… lalo na’t wala kang kasama sa sandaling ito.”

Remember ‘Action louder than words’. Ang maging Ina/Ama sa murang edad ay hindi masama. Hindi rin sinasabing tama. Sa reyalidad ay isang malaking responsibilidad. Sa lipunan, hinuhusgahan at minamalit. Ang pagkakaroon ng anak ay isang biyaya. ‘Hindi mo, hiniling pero dumating’. Be a Marylee of your own. Keep going despite of lot of rejections and judgements she continue to live. Don't chase your happiness, let happiness chase you.

Make sure that the whole pregnancy experience will be tolerable for the first-time mommy (or pappy or whatsoever, I don't really know what to call him, geez. 7. The child should stay with my family after Deon gave birth because he or she belongs to us, to the kind who needs to keep hiding. 8. And the most important thing to do, love my child with all my heart, mind, and Witchita soul. I am Angie Lou Pereira, a Witchita, and this is my guide to successful parenting.

sabi niya at umiling ako, umupo ako ng diretso sa upuan at humarap sa kanya. "I'm serious. You find out you're pregnant, you think about killing your child, and you end up keeping him despite the fact that you know you can't properly care for a child. You are brave; do you know that one of the most difficult situations is that you had a hard time fixing yourself and trying to be strong for the child? I have met several teenage mothers in my life, but they all gave up their children because they thought they could not take on the responsibility of being a parent.

"Oo... ganiyan na ganiyan ang pakiramdam ng mga babaeng gustong-gusto na nilang magkaanak tapos malalaman nila confirm na buntis nga sila. Kagaya ko na lang, I'm a Mom of two." Nag-angat ako ng tingin sa kanya. "Tell me about more." Gusto ko magka-idea. She smiled at me widely. "You know, Vina. Being a mother is very risky, challenging and a lifetime role, buong buhay mo kailangan ka maging responsible sa magiging anak mo at magiging mga anak pa kung gusto mong dagdagan."
