(This photo was taken using my phonecam in Singapore, October 2007. My mother came to help us in our move from Singapore to Sydney. It was a very busy time for all of us and on our last day there, we went to Delifrance with my husband and baby to take a quick break.

This is just one of the major events in my life where my mother played a big role. I don’t think we’d manage to achieve a smooth transition if not for her.)

Kuha ko ito gamit ang cellphone ko sa Singapore noong October 2007. Nagpunta sa Singapore ang aking ina para tulungan kami sa aming paglipat mula Singapore papuntang Sydney. Madami kaming inaasikaso noon at nung huling araw namin ay nagpunta kami sa Delifrance kasama ang aking asawa at anak para makapahinga ng kaunti.

Isa lang ito sa mga mahahalagang pangyayari sa buhay ko na kasama ko ang aking ina. Marahil ay hindi magiging maayos ang paglipat namin papunta dito kung hindi dahil sa kanya.
