Thank You, LaMom!

Audrey and Antonino are so lucky to have LaMom in their lives. We cannot thank her enough for everything she's done to make our lives better but of course, I'd like to try. So in honor of Grandparents' Day, I would like to list 5 reasons why LaMom is the best!

Making Life Grand

I come from a tight knit family and my grandparents are a major part of my life. When I was younger, my Lolo (grandfather) and Lola (grandmother) would always be ready to babysit me and my cousins whenever our parents were at work and we didn't have nannies.

Lolo would spoil us by cooking our favorite food and giving us special treats like chocolates and ice cream.  He would also tell us stories from his childhood which we would all enjoy listening to. Lola, whom our family said goodbye to early this year is a saint! Aside from going to mass everyday (sometimes even twice a day) to pray for us, she would always make time for us. She played with us, sewed our costumes for school activities and even tutored us in Math.

My childhood was enriched because of my Lolo and Lola which is why it's important to me that the twins have a great relationship with their LaMom and Mima. The twins are very lucky to have two doting grandmothers. And since it's grandparent's day today, I made a list of how I think grandparents make life grand.
