#EverydaywithRhian

I have two toddlers in the house and I can’t compare them with each other because they have different personalities. But for now let’s talk about our panganay, Rhian or everyone calls her “ChingChing”. ChingChing is now 3 years old , sometimes my friends call her “Ryza Mae” kasi kahawig daw sya ni Ryza Mae, pero guys db malayo naman? Cguro kasi parehas sila na chubby cheeks kaya ganon.

Rhian is a smart kid, she can identify shapes and colors at the age of 1 year 3 months. At 2, she already memorized our good night prayer “The Angelus” and now at 3, she can now spell some words like DOG, CAT. RAT, HAT and even her name. She joined the summer class in our Barangay and her teacher told me that Rhian is doing very well. Behave daw sya and nag lelevel up sa class, she participates in their activities and guess what, super galing daw nyang sumayaw. Hhhhhmmm.. may tinatagong talent pala anak ko.

Rhian is super talkative, as in ang daldal nya at super tanong. Promise! Dapat lagi kang may handang sagot sa mga tanong nya kasi hindi sya nauubusan ng “Bakit?” “Kasi?”. My mom told me that I should be very extra careful in answering her questions kasi tumatanim na daw yun sa utak ni ChingChing. (Fyi, taglish ang tinuro ko sa mga anak ko.) So I decided to create her own hashtag which is #EverydaywithRhian. Like our #MarriageFirstFriday, my friends and officemates are enjoying reading my post about our conversation with our little darling. Kala mo kasi minsan, kumakausap ka ng matanda, minsan kami pa napagsasabihan ni Rhian, minsan nagugulat nalang kami kasi ang talino nitong batang to. (I know you will tell me na bias ako because she’s my daughter, but I tell you this, better talk to my friends and asked them kung gano kadaldal si ChingChing.)

Anyway, sharing with you some of our conversation with our panganay. Minsan tuloy iniisip ko 3 years old lang ba talaga si ChingChing? Kasi ang dami na nyang tanong and palusot pag kinakausap. Hhhhmm.. Kanino kaya sya nagmana? Hehe.

#EverydayWithRhian Habang tumitingin ako ng sapatos.. ChingChing - Mommy, anong gawa mo? Me- tumitingin ng sapatos ChingChing - para saan po? Me - para sa office ni Mommy. Balik na kasi sya sa work bukas. ChingChing - Ah, ang ganda naman nyan. (Referring sa shoes na hawak ko) After few minutes, ganito na eksena nya. Me- Anong ginagawa mo Ching? ChingChing - nagsusukat rin ng sapatos, ang ganda po nya db? E yung sapatos na sinusukat nya is halos doble ng laki sa paa nya. Haha.

#EverydayWithRhian As much as possible, nagbabasa kami ng books sa gabi bago matulog. Ang topic tonight is the Christmas Day. Me - Ching, nasan si baby Jesus dyan? ChingChing - nasa tummy pa po. Me - tummy nino? ChingChing - ni Mama Mary. Parang ako mommy, galing rin ako sa tummy mo db? Me - Yes anak, kayong 2 ni Rhaine Rhaine. ChingChing - e bakit kami nasa tummy mo? Natigilan ako sandali kc hindi ko alam ang isasagot ko at kung pano ko sya ieexplain. Me - E kasi dun kayo nabuo. Dun muna kayo nag stay hanggang gusto nyo ng lumabas. ChingChing - Ah, okay. Susme buti nalang hanggang dun lang ang tanong nya kung hindi naku!

#EverydaywithRhian

Non-stop ang pag iyak ni Rhian so I decided na kausapin sya one-on-one..

Me- Ching, bakit ka umiiyak?
ChingChing - kasi ayaw ko na po mag school.
Me - 2 days nalang matatapos ka na school mo.
ChingChing - (umiiyak parin.) kasi mommy ayaw ko na po na pumasok ka sa work.
Me - (todo explain, pero lumuluha na ko..) Ching, di pwede na hindi mag work si Mommy. Cge ka di ka na mabibilhan ni Mommy ng toys, tska 3 days nalang wala ng pasok si Mommy.
ChingChing - wag ka na po pumasok mommy please..

In the end, nag iyakan kaming mag ina. :(

Hayz. Kung pwede lang kitang pagbigyan Ching. :(

#Motherhood #WorkingMom #TheStruggleIsReal

Yung alam nila at ramdam nila na papasok na ko sa office, gigising ng maaga, umiiyak, sasabayan kang kumain at babantayan ka sa loob ng cr habang naliligo. Yung pareho mo silang aasikasuhin bago pumasok at yung ieexplain mo ulit sa kanila kung bakit mo kailangan pumasok sa work. Yung iiyak sila habang nakikita ka nila na sumasakay sa tricycle. Yung kailangan mong pigilan luha mo para di nila makita at kailangan mong maging matapang. Hayz. The struggle is real for working mom. How I really wish I can be SAHM or WAHM. Ang sakit lang sa pakiramdam makita silang malungkot at umiiyak. Looking forward for weekend.
