A Token for my Foster Parent during LWYD

I came to Balamban, Cebu for the 32nd Local World Youth Day. This is a yearly youth activity attended and participated by thousands of young people all over Cebu.

We would be fostered in one of the families in Balamban where we would stay for 3 days. Luckily, I was fostered in a very accomodating and welcoming Balambanon - Pitogo Family.

This is my foster siblings and foster mother, Mommy Alma

Mommy Alma

I really called my foster mother "Mommy" because I never had a mommy before. When the five of us arrived in their house, we were immediately served with our lunch. And after the meal, she told us the house rules, such as :

  1. Nobody should be hungry.
  2. Feel at home.

Yes, these are the two good important reminders of our foster parent to us. .

We were gathered here to have our early dinner together.

Clearly, I had a perfect stay in Balamban for the said youth activity. So, I intentionally made some simple token for my foster mother. I made her a portrait drawing of herself. I was very happy that she was pleased when she saw this. I hope you like it, too.

Hello friend. U can use #smartworld tag and perticipate in pencil drawing contest (weekly). Check latest post at @smartworld for detail info. Good luck

God bless you more with your talent. I think goodness attracts goodness. God bless her too because she gives selflessly. Her face shines kindness and willingness to help and with a beautiful smile to boot!

She is really kind. I have seen it in her when she talks and deals with her drivers, servants and employees.

That's the kind of person I want to be but it's a daily struggle. I'm having difficulty conveying kindness in how I speak and act. It's what I always pray to be as kind as I can be.

You can do that. It is not a work done overtime. Take it slow my dear

beautiful work :)

Thanks. But yours are more beautiful.
