Mommy with her grandchildren |
Lance, from what I've observed is quite over his sweet stage towards us. Gone are the days that he'd cuddle up and shower us kisses publicly but he still does that from time to time, only in private and by request. But he does have good memory and frequently tells us what he remembers when he was still small, mostly stories when we were still in the Philippines. He remembers his toys, his yellow trike, the guard at PNB, our pedicab rides, our trips to Trabajo market, eating fishball, our old apartment, etc. but sometimes his memory of Mom whom he calls 'Iya' is fading. The other day he told me he can't remember Mom anymore and I asked him if he wants me to show him a picture and he said "I'll just close my eyes and I'll see her." He gets so sad and teary eyed when he forgets how my Mom looks like. I told him once that when you love a person, even if you don't see him/her, keep them in your heart forever, keep them close so that you'll always remember and that you never ever forget a person you love. At his young age, I know he understands and I also know that what I said to him will serve as a valuable lesson to him. I don't mind losing his sweet personality as he grows up because I know his sensitivity will pave way for a much better Lance in the future.
