As far as my pre-Raine days, I’ve always wanted a child of mine to be one of my best buddies. Someone I could do things and talk stuff together with.
At three-and-a-half, I would like to believe that Raine and I are best buddies in a very special way. We do clash, lots of times over silly things. But we kiss and make-up instantly and miss each other a lot on few hours or days (occasions) that we are apart.
(If I am to be away for a few days, he has to know where, when and why, couples of days before. He knows about all instances that I not at home. When he arrives from school, or when I arrive from town, he hugs me so tight like he’s never seen me in days! Sometimes he surprises me with phrases like: kamusta na pare?)
In the past I’ve always thought that I’d meet my match in a husband. Boy, I am wrong! I met my match in Raine. He is so much like me in many different ways: volatile, impatient, stubborn, intelligent, resourceful and sweet and cute…he he. But seriously, he is so much like me. Thank God for that for I know that he will survive and pull himself through whatever life fancies to bring him in the future.
Well I just hope that I could be less panicky and strict and let my hair loosen a bit in things that concerns Raine. Knowing that he loves me is enough for the moment, that will tide me over to the end of my life. The mere thought that things are going to be alright where he is concerned puts a smile on my face, with a slight kurot sa puso.

maybe the reason why Raine is so like Glo is because you are always together plus you have show him love. kahit together kayo, kung di nya naramdamdan yun, no love will grow.
i like the pic, it shows your love to each other.

Hee hee, nanay na nanay ka talaga po.
I have a nephew who I also get along with very well. I’m still like a child in many ways, and we love playing together.

You’re his world, Gloria, and what a wonderful world it is!
