Jennica Garcia was emotional as she finally bought an air-conditioning unit and a water heater for her kids, after months of enduring the hot weather as well as the cold water when taking a bath.
The actress said this as she made an appreciation post for her firstborn Athena Mori on her Instagram page last Sunday, April 30. Jennica gave an account of the deeds her eldest daughter does without being told to, including doing the dishes, cooking food for herself and her sister Alexis Severina, as well as looking after their mom.
“You’re growing up really well, Ate Mori. I don’t know what it is that I did exactly for you to be the little lady that you are now,” Jennica said. “My dearest Mori, ever since your school taught you how to write, you’ve written me so many letters that express love and appreciation.”
“Mahal na mahal kita, Ate Mori. Walang hindi ibibigay sayo, walang hindi kakayanin,” she added, vowing to be her two daughters’ best friend for life. (I love you so much, Ate Mori. There’s nothing I would not give and endure for you.)
Jennica then spoke about finally being able to provide an air-conditioning unit and a water heater for them while expressing her gratitude to her ABS-CBN bosses and to everyone who has been supporting her.
“Nanay is getting emotional because I’m heading to the mall tonight to buy aircon and a water heater for our bathroom. Pagpahingain na natin yung electric fan, 10 months na tayong lapot gumigising,” she stated. “Hindi na rin ako ulit mag-iinit ng tubig para isalin sa balde pangligo niyo ‘pag malamig ang panahon. Anytime gusto niyo maligo, GO!”
(Nanay is getting emotional because I’m heading to the mall tonight to buy aircon and a water heater for our bathroom. Let’s give our electric fan a rest since we have been waking up sweaty for the last 10 months. I will also no longer be boiling water for your bath whenever the weather is cold. You can take a bath anytime you want, go!)
“Nanay got this kids! Buhat ko kayo lagi (I got you both always),” she assured her kids.
Fellow celebrities Christian Bables, Janine Gutierrez and Chynna Ortaleza admired Jennica through the comments section, with Gutierrez describing the actress as a “great mama.”
