Better late than never...
Justine really felt so bad that he didnt gave anything to his teachers today for Valentines while some of his classmates did. So he ask me to make a heart for the card. I was working so mom had to cut the heart shape cards. After awhile when all the cards are ready i prepared his message on his card after that he said "okay mommy can help me mom you can now go back to work" and start writing the messages to the cards for his 3 teachers. He even offer his chocolates. Ah my sweet little terrorist is really growing up... ;)
It really touches me that in his own little way he shows care and understanding to me. Earlier today when I was about to go out and buy dinner, he ask "Are going out mom? Are you going to just walk?" and I jokingly answer "Yes im just going to walk" he replied worriedly "You don't have any money? Okay then walk slowly, and do not run okay?". On my way out I was really laughing and at the same time was touched.
This isn't the first but one of those caring moments that we had. It kinda comfort me that at his age he understands me in a way that I am the sole provider and protector. And so sometimes he also does the same to me even though he is naughty most the time but he would often "kick my bum" to remind my responsibility. If I got lazy to go to work, he would remind me that I wont have money if i dont work and my boss will be mad at me. If im still not sleeping while he already woke up in the morning he would tell me to let his kuya or others to take him to school even he wanted it to be me. If he see me not yet eating he would make tantrums not to eat so I can eat with him or more often he would he just simply demand "you should eat already mom!".
