This is my speech number 6 where I must show vocal varieties in delivering my speech. Well I thought of sharing the times I have with my baby Trisha, her cute moves and antics that makes me love her more and more each day...
April 28, 2010
“Rah rah ah ah ah ah, Roma roma mamaa, Gah gah oh la la, Want your bad romance”, that song is one of the top hits of today’s popular hit maker Lady Gaga. This is one of the songs that my baby and I fondly sing together in our playtime or bonding moments. For tonight ladies and gentlemen, I will not be singing all of her popular hits. I will be sharing with you my baby’s top 3 special abilities that make me go crazy. Trisha’s special characteristics are having Super Baby Instincts, being a Baby Star and admirable Baby Love.
First the Baby Instincts. There is what we call the Mother’s instincts, but Trisha has her baby instincts as well. She knows the time I go home. When I go home late from work and find her sleeping, she’ll open her eyes and ask for her milk. Or when I lay down beside her, she’ll place her arms on my shoulder and kiss me on my cheeks. When I go home early, she’ll be the one to open the door jumping and screaming “Yehey! ‘to na Mommy ko!”. Then my mom will tell me that she’s been talking about me and waiting by the window 10 minutes before I arrive. Imagine that.
Another, Baby Star because at a very young age, she loves to sing and dance. With the creative genes she inherited from me, Trisha is a talented baby. Before I will just sing a part or Lady Gaga’s Poker Face song like this “Ma po-po-poker face, ma po-po-ker face…” then Trisha will continue it by singing “ma ma ma ma.” Now, when we play, she will either tell me to sing for her an upbeat pop music then she’ll sing along with me and dance. Sometimes she’ll tell me to clap my hands after she performs. In addition to that, she knows the campaign jingles of the political candidates. Isn’t that amazing!
Lastly, her unconditional Baby Love, which I will elaborate more compared to the other 2 special abilities. There was a time when I stayed overnight in a hotel for one of our Sales Events. I told her beforehand that I won’t be home but will be back the following day. The next day, I called her up to check on her, when she picked up the phone, she said to me “Gabe ka mommy, ket d k pa uwi. Dala ka ubong ha!” To translate what she said, she questioned why I did not go home but demanded for a treat or a gift when I get back. Another incident, it was one early Saturday morning she woke up early and asked for her milk. I just said yes but did not get up to make her one. She tried to wake me up but I only nodded asking for few minutes. You know what she did? She went up with a deep sigh, took her milk bottle and milk powder container from the table and handed them to me. Of course, I smiled, laughed at myself and made her bottle of milk. Last example, there are times when we argue. I will get mad and start nagging her, she will cry, embrace me and say “Mommy, sorry po!” She knows when I am mad and she immediately says sorry for it. And I know that she loves me.
I shared by baby’s special abilities because I am glad to see these from her at an early age. It’s true when they say that all the toxicity you had from work paves off when you get a kiss and a hug from an excited child waiting for you to come home. She’s currently 2 years and 8 months of age and she expresses her feelings openly. With her as an additional member of our family, there was never a lull moment and we never had a clean house with her toys filling up the rooms. My message for all is to spend quality time with your loved ones. No matter how busy your life is. You work to live not live to work.
To end my speech, let me share few lines of one of the songs we sing together “I love you baby, and if its quite alright, I need you baby, to warm my lonely night. I love you baby, trust in me when I say…I need you baby don’t bring me down I pray I need you baby and now I found you stay and let me love you baby, let me love you…” Good Evening.
