Dear Johan baby,

Happy 7th birthday! Thank you for making my first  motherhood experience a very sweet one. Thank you for being my Johan, my forever bebe, my love, Daddy and Nany’s first love, Joshua’s “kuy kuy”. Thank you for being so understanding, for always being ready and quick to forgive everytime Daddy and me made you feel sad, hurt, or afraid. Thank you for being so generous of you lambing to me.

You are now 7 years old. Grabe how you changed from being a baby to a big boy in a span of just 12months. You love to takbo takbo and pretend play fighting scenes from your favorite shows – Mechamato, Paw Patrol Ryder, and recently Pokemon. You are making us proud everyday because you are doing so well in school, getting high grades here and there ven if sometimes we miss our review together. You have grown so much na dati you were always crying in the morning and the night before classes because your classmates are not listening to your teachers. Now, I am happy that you are making friends and enjoying school activities. Not much crying na..

I love how you write baby. You have a beautiful handwriting. You can read, write sentences beautifully. I love that you live to read. Your favorite recently are Almanac 2024 and other did you know bools. You always call my attention and share to me random unique things in the book you are reading.

You love Religion because of Sir GA, your teacher/adviser. You want to be a teacher like him.

Thank you baby ko fot your big and generous heart for Joshua. I can see how muchhhhh you love him. You miss each other kahit galing lang kayo sa school. You love to hug and kiss him up to the point na naiinis sya 😄 We always try to “eat him” kasi ang cute cute niya, chubby cheeks. Pag nag aaway kayo, kahit sinasabi mo na naiinis ka, I see how you give in lovingly kay Joshua even if it is hard to understnd na ganun ang babies.  Thank you for your biggg heart bibi. 

My heart melts when you and Joshua sing together, takbo takbo together. My nanay heart is happy to see that you found a bestfriemd for life with your brother Joshua. It’s a big blessing from God.

You still love color red. You still love in aircon rooms. You are npw more cpmfortable in slides sa playground. Lagi kayo bumababa ni Jhean sa hapon to walk around or go to the playground or get my delivered packages sa blue tent (na ngayon ay wala na).

You love to sleep sa car natin (Mobi / Kimbimbo) pag drivung si daddy. You were teasing me gisto mo ako mag drive so you can sleep longer kasi angtagal ko mag park 😅 But you never sleep pag dito ma sa condo, becuase you feel it will lessem your play time.

You are still picky, and qng baon mo ay paging bacon, fried  chiecken or nilagang pork. You also love strawberry sprinkled donuts, Red Ribbon mamon, or Krit biscuits for recess baon.

I am proud of you everyday even if I miss to say it sometimes. I miss your baby days when you are dependent on me, when your world revolved around me and daddy 🥺🥺 I always pray to God that you will grow with a healthy heart, mimd, body always and protected from any harm. May your heart nd mind always cling to Jesus.

God bless you Johan. Nanay and daddy loves you very very much. We are always here for you, everyday – 24×7.

I love you bibi ko. 😘

Love,

Nanay
