Me, my sister, Inay, and Mama. Circa 2008
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas and aunties out there — including the ones who happen to have furry babies like dogs and cats!!! 
Me and my fluffy son.
So this means today is my first Mother’s Day!!! Rory is currently nuzzled by my feet as I type this post. I suppose that’s all he can do since puppies can’t plan surprises (they can make unpleasant and messy ones though).
I’d especially like to wish a Happy Mother’s Day to all the mother figures in my life, especially my own whom I call Inay (means “mom” in Tagalog). I also like to call her Muddah. 
Inay and I in the early 90s.

Auntie Ashie and Auntie Ada — my Bay Area Mamas.
I hope all you mothers and mother figures have a wonderful day!!!
You’re so lucky to have all these wonderful women in your life Nina
You look so different as a little girl compared to now. But hey, i do too 
What did you do for your Ina on Mothers Day? I baked my mum scones, as she loves them to DEATH! Then we had a nice dinner, simple roast chicken mmmmm.
Hope you guys had a lovely day
Thanks Marine! I got my mom an orange hippo ring by Betsey Johnson. It was practically perfect because she loves jewelry, she loves hippos, and her favorite color is orange.
My dad and I took my mom out for lunch at a local Greek restaurant, and then my dad bought her an iPad! It’s safe to say she had a wonderful Mother’s Day.
