I am a little pissed right now. I was chatting with my sis a while ago and she told me that an aunt commented about me being a SAHM (stay at home mom). That said aunt told my sis to tell me I should be working and earning my own money.
WTH?
I don't think she has any right! It's not like we're eating out of her pocket!
Maybe she means well but I know that when she said that it was in a condescending way. She's the kind of person I don't like to associate with. They judge me right away because I am a SAHM. They think that I am useless even in the society. They think I am just watching telly all day. Gosh, how ignoramus people still are nowadays.
I told my sis to just ignore the comment. I know the truth. And though I have bouts of self pity because I have no income of my own, at least I know that I am doing a far more important job taking care of my family and raising my baby to be a respectful citizen of this world.

Hi Cas! sino ba yan? ibulong mo nga sa akin...dont be upset na okey, seguro kaya nagcommenting kase baka mas feel nya na makita kang nagwowork dahil baka for her eh mas nararapat sayo ang magworking because of your katalinuhan...
But like I said, there's nothing more na hihigit pa na ipagpaliban mo ang iyong career over your family. I am really proud of you especially on raising EJ, im sure if sa yaya si EJ lumaki and youre working feeling ko eh hinde ganyan kamasayahin si EJ...korekek ka to ignore the comment...o sya valah at feeling ko now lang ako nagcomment ng matino at mahaba pa ha! hehehe...miss ko kayo ang ingat lage....
Actually cas, there's no excuse for her comment. And it's not like sya ang nagpaaral sakin para manghinayang sya. But all's good now. Deadma nalang :)
I won't ask na lang Neng kung sino yan! Hehehe...knowing how tongues wag in our place...yeah, i know its uncalled for pero baka nga nanghinayang sya but for people like me who understands the sacrifices you've gone through to bring EJ alone and without yaya, we do applaud you kasi its one of my fears na baka i won't be strong enough to be a good mother...or a SAHM... i do wish talaga Neng, i'll have the same guts as you to decide to let go everything for my family....wish...wish...wish...
Cheer up! Just look at EJ and u know u've made the right decision in life!!! Nasuya ra lam iton!
Maderla, I have hubby naman to help me :) Wala nga lang yaya. All I can say is it's really hard. Pero it's worth it naman. Kaya no regrets. Yung ibang tao lang ang ma regrets for me...hahaha!
