Mommy Moments-Love Language

There are 5 basic love languages we use and they are:

• Words of Affirmation. People need to hear compliments. Simple "thank you" or "you look wonderful today" is important to this people.
• Quality Time. People equate love with spending time with them like listening to them, walking, talking and the likes.
• Physical Touch. People need to be hugged, touched, or sit close together.
• Receiving Gifts. People need to receive thoughtful, not necessarily expensive, gifts.
• Acts of Service. People receive love through acts of service like fixing the bed, preparing a meal for them or doing a chore for them.

And I have learned this through:
mommy moments

I was excited to know what kind of LOVE LANGUAGE I express to my Schatzy and Lil ones (ok my lil hero attest that he is not LITTLE anymore, but still this is my blog so I'll call him that). I was expecting that my Schatzy will give an answer of two but surprisingy he answered all.

Then I asked myself why he answered all... that's why I thought of how my day is spent with them.

Every morning when I wake up I would say... "Morning everybody! I love you!" a small thank you for a new day to the guy who is up above and start the day ahead. Then I said "hmmm...Words of affirmation nga!"

Then we would chat about what they have dreamt that night or what they are planning for the day ahead... and in return I'll share them mine. Which falls in the category Quality Time.

I would kiss them and hug them. Or sometimes we end up playing and tickling each other. That's my physical touch.

I would write simple note or create something thats out of the box for them that falls in the category Receiving gifts.

Then I would give my kids a bath or feed them or the like. I would usually make brunch for my Schatzy and prepare his clothes when he takes a bath. And that explains my acts of service.

I was convinced that I give them all the categories that can express how much I love them. I am so happy!!!
