Anyway, I love it when my kids get As in school but what really makes me happy and beam with joy is when they are praised because of their behavior or personality.
" we miss you so much KARMINA, Mrs. Llaga, she is one of those kids you miss when they leave school. "
"You'll be a success Chris coz you have good study habits and you're not selfish to help your classmates. "
" mrs. Llaga, it's a pleasure to have Josh in my class, such a happy kid, and good in Math."
I've heard it all. Whether I meet their friends and teachers at TJMax, park or church, I get the same praise. At restaurants and churches, it's very common for elderly couple to come up to me and say " your kids are so well behaved and lovely family you got. "
That makes me contented. Inspite of any circumstances, they are my redemption. It validates me as a mother and as a person. I don't need any success from other facets in my life. If I am a success as a mother, i'm all set.
Have a peaceful Maundy Thursday.
