Birthday Surprise for Mummy from the Philippines With Love

Four days ago, I deliberately connived with My Prince about the surprise I wanted  for her Mum's natal day. My Prince and I had talked about it a few weeks back and we have been pretty excited searching for the best gift for  Mum. Regrettably, my hectic schedule did not permit me to look around for the most wonderful present as there was very limited time spent in front of the PC. My Prince then suggested to keep it simple and that a bouquet of flowers will do. I then asked him to keep his mouth mummed, LOL!

I wanted it to be a surprise.  I did the purchase online because it's the only way to have the flowers sent on her birthday. This is the first time I have done it. I would usually do it by courier and it would take a month or so before she could have her gifts. I could now imagine the look of surprise on Mum's face while receiving the flowers and the birthday card.  It was a little difficult choosing the best looking one as there were too many online sites with equally beautiful offers.

The long search was over when I've found this one which my Prince agreed that Mummy would love:

It was a little expensive. My Prince got a little worried and asked if I could afford it. I answered him in the affirmative. It wasn't actually the question of sending the expensive or cheap item. It's always the thought that counts, NOT the price.

Mummy C certainly deserves nothing but the best on her birthday. She is a great woman and a great Mum to all her 3 kids. She was able to raise them up admirably in her lonesome. I am grateful because if not for her, I won't have the best Mahal in the world. I thank the Lord for this wonderful blessing. She has been so nice to me and I can't wait to meet her real soon.

Happy Birthday, Mummy! 

P.S: 


Upon speaking to the CSR of the online flower shop on the phone just now,  she assured me to have the bouquet of flowers delivered at 2PM of May 22, 2010. I also made a special order to add some touch of white flowers to the actual photo. The CSR sent me a confirmation of my order via email:

Hi Ellaine,

Our courier has confirmed your gift should be delivered by 2pm today. It is now 10.04am in Sydney Thank you for your order.

Kind regards,

Mary Ellen

Beautiful Cards from Sydney, Australia With Love

After revealing the anniversary presents from My Guapo Prince a few days back, I can't help but show off the cards I've got from him and Mummy C. I was truly touched reading the beautiful messages written on the cards.

To My Beautiful Lainy,

Well done to us! 3 years we have made it and many more to come!

I am lucky cuz I have the best Mahal in the world!

Looking forward to seeing you this year.

MAHAL NA MAHAL KITA ALWAYS!

Your Prince,

Scotty

I must admit I've had erratic heartbeats while reading the card. For awhile there, it felt like I was in heaven. My Prince alone can give me such happiness and a pernicious sense of completeness. It is such a beautiful feeling knowing that the man I love truly accepts me for the person that I am despite the barriers.

What is even more remarkable is that Mummy C has that certain level of fondness for me as his son's girlfriend. My Prince would often tell me that Mummy C likes me for being genuine :-) Now what can I say? I almost couldn't believe it! Mummy C's approval of me meant so much to me more than anything else!

I owe Mummy a lot! If not for her, I wouldn't have a wonderful man to love. I am sincerely all hats-off to her for raising such an admirable son.

This card from Mummy C reads and I quote:

Ellaine,

Special is a word that best describes you...

Special is a word that is used to describe something one-of-a-kind,

like a hug or a sunset or a person who spreads love with a smile or kind gesture.

Special describes people who act from the heart and keep in mind the hearts of others.

Special applies to something that is admired and precious and can never be replaced.

Special is the word that best describes YOU!

Wishing you every happiness for 2010.

Lots of Love, Kisses and Cuddles,

Mummy

P.S.

Hope you like the necklace, fridge magnets, and make-up bag.

Love,

Mummy

You see how sweet Mummy C is? :-)

I am grateful to God Almighty for choosing My Prince to be my boyfriend. We are both aware that we didn't choose each other. God himself in all His glory chose us and My Prince and I have no powers to resist, LOL! The distance and the separation weren't of any problem to us. It's the most wonderful relationship that any girl could dream of!

The Birthday Cards

Apart from the beautiful birthday presents I received on my natal day, I've also received birthday cards from My Guapo Prince and Mummy Carol.

Mummy Carol wrote:

Ellaine,

Hope you have a lovely birthday with your family and friends.

Lots of love, kisses, and cuddles,

MUMMY

The card from my Prince reads:

For My Girlfriend,

You're thoughtful and kind

and as beautiful as can be,

You make life so blissful

and happy for me.

Supportive and special,

My very best friend,

You're someone on whom

I can always depend...

You listen, you share,

You're warm-hearted as well

and I love you far more

than those few words can tell!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

My Prince Scotty wrote a personal message and I quote:

Hi Princess Ko!

Wishing you all the best for your 25th birthday, you're not getting old, hehe! Many more birthdays to come and we will be spending them together.

MAHAL NA MAHAL KITA ALWAYS!

Your Guapo Prince,

Scotty

P O L L Y!

Belated Birthday and Mother's Day Greetings

I was out of town when Mother's Day was celebrated. But it did not prevent me from remembering that May 10, 2009 is a day for all mothers! I was thinking of my own mother and my Prince Scotty's Mum. If not for both Mums, My Prince and I wouldn't be on earth today. My Prince always gives Mummy a very special treat on Mother's day. They would usually go out for lunch or dinner and watch a fine movie. 

Incidentally, both Mums were born in May. Last Friday, May 22, it was Mummy Carol's birthday. I was able to speak to her and she sounded very happy that her children came over to celebrate with her. 

And how she loved the birthday card I've sent her! I was so glad she liked it! I have yet to send out the birthday gifts I have prepared for her. 

Mummy Carol has always been so nice to me. A simple card and the little things she sends out my way is always appreciated. I truly admire her for raising such a wonderful son in Scott. 

To both my mother and Mummy Carol, a belated Happy Birthday and Belated Happy Mother's Day to the both of you! 

My beautiful mother and me...

My Prince, Baby Aleisha, Mummy Carol and My Prince Scotty's Brother, Mark.
