What I Adore About Mi Madre

• Her knowledge of fashion
• When she cooks sopas
• When she caters to me when I have to stay up late studying or finishing a project for school
• Her constant concern for my whole family
• Her laugh
• Her in a good mood
• Her attempts at using "shut-up" in the proper moment
• Her way of handling stress (=shopping!)
• Her taste in COACH bags
• The constant love she's always unselfishly giving
• The way she commits to everything and anything she puts her heart into

What I Adore About My Faja

• How his hugs always turn into back massages
• His cooking
• His Romeo-like love mind set towards mi madre
• His Beatles CD collection
• When he takes me thrift shopping
• The way he shakes his hips (especially when he struts his on wedding dance floors)
• When he buys me stuff
• When he swears in tagalog (& NOT at me)
• The way his bald scalp feels
• The way he talks when he doesn't have his bottom dentures
• When he brings back home some gifts from his workplace
• The way he puts his soul into his artwork
