Photo above: June 1988, my mom with my 'big sister-cousin' Ate Edith. This photo was taken in Manila about the time we were residing in Makati while I was going to university.

These are just a few of my most cherished photos of my mom. There are times I miss her a lot. Every Mother's Day, I think about the sacrifices she has done for me. She was all I had then, and I was her only child. I am thankful for her love and guidance especially during my formative years...
