Have you noticed when I said “uh-um” to her instead of “opo” or “yes“? She adapted it right away! I should’ve said “opo” so that she would answer in the same manner. But I, too, sometimes forget. When I realized I was wrong, I corrected her by telling her:
What uh-um? What do you have to say?
I’m proud that she remembered and said opo afterwards…
Mitch Carvalho
I am a full-time home-based Marketing Manager by day, 24/7 Mom, and a Blogger/Content Creator in my spare time. Proud mom to 2 girls and 1 boy, Derelle, Erchelle, and Elric.
I am happy to share my adventures as I walk through motherhood and have to do most things on my own while my husband works miles away from us. Turning my passion into a profitable venture is another thing.
Authoring and managing this personal blog developed my social media awareness over the years.
From being an ex-OFW to doing what I am good at in the comfort of my own home – while taking good care of my 3 wonderful kids, I hope that people see me as a great inspiration when it comes to pursuing my passion and turning it into a profitable venture.
A giant leap like this is such a challenging journey but indeed is rewarding. A few bumps along this whole journey did not stop me from being the best version of myself.
grabe Mitch, ikaw ba yung nagsasalita sa background? parang terror ang dating ng boses mo, medyo nasindak ako. 🙂
you know what I observed, ang galing na ni Deye maghawak ng spoon at grabe mag simut ng ice cream ha.

Ako nga yun hahaha! That’s why D always tells me I have a sungit voice and tone daw when I speak. :p Pero di naman ako galit nyan normal na yan sa akin. :p
Pero dati lefty sya, lagi lang namin nireremind na dapat kanan, ayan nakuha din. Malinis syang kumain kasi maarte.
Ahh the Opo word. I am Cebuano and Opo is an alien word. My parents who were Tagalog never taught us to say “opo”. My relatives thought we were rude. hehe. Yes parents are role models. I hate it when my husband curses because the girls follow.
My friend was telling me about that too, she’s from Surigao. Sabi nya nga wala daw opo sa kanila, basta daw kelangan pag sasagot something like “Oo, Ma”. Sa amin kasi dapat ganyan otherwise… :p Sermon!
