Comments offI feel as if I have become a mom four times over. Even when my mom was still alive, I have acted as my siblings surrogate mom, especially when it comes to their schooling. I went to enroll them, went to PTA meetings, went and gotten their school grades/cards, talked to guidance counselors (in my brother’s case), and have known so many teachers and classmates in the span of more than ten years now.
Only one’s left still in school. Our youngest, my brother James, is in second year college. Afraid he might lose his tuition fee money, I go to the university to pay for his fees. Never mind if I have to go out of the house just for that when I have too many tasks to do. My brother can be careless at times. Better I be the one to lose the money than him. At least, I only have myself to blame, right?
This is probably one of the many reasons I would want a kid of my own. I’ve been there so many times that I feel like I should be retiring from mommyhood already. Hehe
