A mother appreciation post: Nelly Escoba



To the breadwinner of the family since she got her first job at the age of 20. A friend to all and a very supportive mother of 3 kids. If she had not decided to get married at 32 years old, God knows where would we be in this world.

I saw this newsletter published on January 1984. This was secretly kept in a brown envelope so that means she doesn't want anyone to see this (her short hair perhaps?). The article really says about her, hardworking and independent. That's why she definitely deserves a post in my feed.

The article says:
With her petite build Nelita "Nellie" Abriol of toiletry production division looks more like a teener than a 24-year-old woman. Nellie considers her four years with IPI as time well spent. She finished her secretarial course at Abellana National School while working fulltime.

Like other self supporting students, Nellie had her own share of difficulties but her guiding ideal of "striving consistently to reach success" helped her out.

Nellie who is the eldest in the Abriol brood turns to gardening when she's not with friends or reading her favorite magazines. She's quite conservative in her taste for music preferring classical and mellow tunes.

I love you, Mum/Momsh/Mader. 😘
My 25-year old self isn't ashamed to tell.
