Hello everyone!
Hope all are safe and well! 😊❤🙏
Today, let me share our simple yet meaningful Mother’s Day celebration at home. It was not grand or expensive, but it was filled with love, laughter, and togetherness. Sometimes, the simplest celebrations are the ones that truly touch our hearts the most. 😊❤
Because it's Mother’s Day, I wanted to prepare something special for my mother. Instead of buying an expensive cake, I decided to make one myself using Energen products from our store that were already near expiration. Rather than letting them go to waste, I thought of turning them into something beautiful and delicious. It also made me happy because I was able to be creative while preparing a heartfelt gift for my mother. 😊 I will share the recipe and the process of making the cake in another blog soon. 😊
When the cake was finally ready, I called my father and my niece because we are only four staying in the house. My mother was comfortably watching television in the living room without knowing what we were preparing for her. My father carried the cake from the kitchen while my niece excitedly prepared the match to light the candle. 😊❤
As we entered the living room, we happily greeted my mother and sang Happy Mother’s Day just like singing a birthday song. 😁 It was such a fun and heartwarming moment. My niece was the one who lighted the candle while I took pictures and videos the celebration. We were all smiling and laughing while singing together. 😊
My mother was very happy even with our simple surprise. You could really see the joy in her face. Moments like this remind me that mothers truly appreciate even the smallest gestures made with sincerity and love. She then made her wish and blew the candle happily. 😊
Later on, my sister, brother, and in-laws arrived bringing different kinds of food for everyone. Our simple celebration suddenly became livelier because of their presence. It is always wonderful when family members gather together around the table sharing food, stories, and laughter. 😊
I also cooked squid in two different ways: fried squid and squid adobo. Cooking is one of the things I enjoy doing especially when it is for family gatherings. Seeing everyone enjoy the food I prepared gives me happiness too. 😊
That was how we celebrated Mother’s Day this year. Nothing extravagant, but it was filled with genuine love and appreciation for our mother. We spent the day eating together, sharing unlimited stories, laughing, and even drinking tuba while enjoying each other’s company. Those moments are priceless and truly unforgettable. 😊❤
As I grow older, I realize more and more how important family is. Life may not always be easy, and we may face many struggles along the way, but having family beside us makes everything lighter. Celebrations do not need to be expensive to become meaningful. What matters most is the love, effort, and time we give to the people who matter to us. 😊❤
Mother’s Day is also a reminder to appreciate our mothers not only during special occasions but every single day. Their sacrifices, patience, care, and unconditional love can never truly be measured. I am grateful to have a loving mother who continues to support and care for us despite all the challenges in life. 😊❤
Have a Blessed Monday everyone! 😀😀😀💖💖💖
Thank You Lord for the blessings and love!
