“Nagpadede, nagpatulog, at naging instant ina po tayo sa biyaheng pa Manila,” she said in the caption. “When I saw na may baby akong katabi, my heart leaped out of my chest. [I don’t know] but I just love babies and I love babysitting.”
“Glad to have helped a kababayan Mom during this trip! Yes, masaya po ang tulog niya!” she added. “So happy I met these two beautiful people.”
