This is a message to my one and only grandma. The person that I admire the most. The one woman that has a pure heart and a very generous soul. Wherever you are, I hope you would somehow know what I feel.
I used to hate you back then. I used to hate having to do all the chores you asked me to do. I used to mumble everytime you would ask me questions about why I didn't come home on time from school. I hated it when you would tell me to attend mass every Sunday, and I would really roll my eyes when you would announce that it's time to pray the rosary every night. All of that was torture for me, I always thought you are so strict and that someday when I grow-up I would go as far away from you as I could so I won't have to follow your rules and I won't have to stop watching tv just to pray the rosary.
Eversince my mom died, you have taken us underneath your wings and raised us as your own children. I spent more time with you than I did my real mom who lost her battle from cancer when I was just 7 years old. You are always the person who's always willing to help, eversince I could remember.
I grew up with a fear in God. I grew up to be a well-adjusted individual. I grew up to be a good mom and a good wife. I grew up as a good person and ready to face all challenges life throws at me.. And it is all thanks to you.
Thank you for making me attend mass and do the rosaries every night, I learned how to love God. Thank you for making me wash the dishes, clean the house and cook our dinner, I learned how to be a good mom and a good wife. Thank you for always getting angry when I don't come home on time, I was saved from friends who are bad-influence. And most of all, thank you for loving us unconditionally, I have learned to give love in the most unselfish way.
It's so sad that I could no longer hug you. That I could no longer kiss you. That I could no longer say thank you for raising me to be the person that I am now.
I know that by now, you are with God and I know that you are watching over us, making sure that we raise our kids the way you have raised us... I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MY MAMALING! When God welcomed my mom into heaven, He knew that we would be well-taken cared of because He gave you to us to be our grandma!
