Some time ago, I was asked by a reader of this blog to design an online newsletter for her website selling different apparels. Although I was not familiar with designing using html or scripts, I was excited with the idea of putting a newsletter together for her site, both the writing and designing aspects of it.
Among her products are bikers’ and cowboys’ apparels. The designs made me remember my little boy’s fondness for equestrian apparel as he really wanted to become a cowboy when he was three or four year-old. He was given a black vest by his grandmother and he wear it even in his sleep. We had to eventually tell him the vest was lost so he would give it a rest.
Even as a young boy, he already loved horses and he would ride carousels so he can feel how it is to be a cowboy. For this reason, I promised myself I would bring him to Baguio someday so he can ride a real horse. So I did, and so did he. 
How time flies! Soon, my baby will be a grown boy and he would seek independence. I hope that as he age, he would remain sweet and thoughtful as I would really miss our good times together. He’s very close to me. I’ve been very busy these days and my son misses me so much. He would always tell me after an out-of-town trip how he slept hugging my picture while I’m away. You can just imagine how guilty I am with these remarks. I am always trying hard to cope with the demands of my jobs and my being a mother but sometimes, I am messing.
Nevertheless, my little cowboy will always be the meaning of my life and I hope I will still be there when he hops on a real horse and make it run in the wild.
