To Mommy Liza

[Lorenzo]

Mommy,

I really miss you mom. Mommy.
I may have the body of an adult, the mind of an adult,
but my heart still longs for my only Mom.

Hilak ko sometimes because I am far away from You and Daddy.
But I take things as tests. Sacrifice as you sacrificed for us.

I just wanted to say that I miss you, Mommy.
I miss your cooking,
the sound of your voice telling us to wake up and to clean the house.
hearing you and Daddy laughing and having the entire family united.

Christmas cannot come any sooner.


With Love, and with Kisses,
Your Son,

[Moyhua]

Sweet naman!

[Lorenzo]

Mother of my youth,
Mother who carried me in her womb
Under pain of delivery--25 hours of labor
For the many white hairs I have given you
For the many mistakes I have made
Yet, nonetheless, your Love and Motherly patience never changes

Mother of my Youth,
Mother of the present,
You taught me how to pray,
How to read the Bible,
How to speak,
How to speak my mind,

Encouragement of success,
Yet reminder of my ancestral humility
Reminder of Humble Beginnings,

Mother of My Youth,
My Dear Mother,

Your Son Loves You.
