MOM: THE HEART OF OUR HOME

 

                She is the embodiment of a loving, caring, and hardworking mother. but she wasn't your sunshine and rainbows kind of mom. Her love was a fierce flame, burning bright but contained within a strict exterior.

               She has long brown curly hair, is kinda tall, and looks really intimidating but when you meet her, she is such a wonderful person, and She is Robbi De Guzman, My Mother. Her hugs are the warmest refuge after a long day, a gentle kiss goodnight, her smile the most comforting sight. No matter what life throws our way, her love is a constant source of strength.

              Unlike most mothers, My Mom's sacrifice wasn't just measured in long hours. It was a sacrifice of geography, of uprooting herself from everything she knew to give us a beautiful and better life in a new country. That new land, with its unfamiliar customs and language, became her battleground. My Mom is a warrior in a strange land, fought tirelessly. Every grueling hour at work, every calloused hand, was a testament to her unwavering commitment.

             "The whispers of doubt may come, swirling around you like autumn leaves. But remember, my darling, you were born from a storm. You carry the strength of resilience within you. So go forth, chase your dreams with the fierceness of a lioness, and know that my unwavering love will be the wind beneath your wings, lifting you ever higher." that's what she always says to us, her childrens. From scraped knees to broken hearts, My Mom is there with a soothing touch and words of encouragement. Her unwavering support empowers us, her children to chase their dreams, knowing they have a cheerleader by their side.

              My Mom is a firm believer in the value of education, a conviction instilled in her children. Beyond academics, she prioritizes kindness and compassion.  She leads by example, volunteering at the children's school and encouraging acts of generosity within the family. She celebrates our victories with the most genuine enthusiasm and offers a shoulder to cry on during tough times.

            Her own dreams of college had been extinguished by financial hardship, but the embers of ambition never truly died. Instead, they transformed into a relentless drive to ensure her children wouldn't face the same limitations. and that makes her The Best Momma.

             My Mom is the heart of our family. Her love, care, and hard work create a haven where we feel loved, supported, and empowered to chase our dreams. We are incredibly lucky to have her as our Mom.
