lost in translation...

i wanted to translate my blogs (having new friends that are not Filipino), I would like it to be more "main stream".


i was hoping to find a help from the WorldWideWeb and i googled "language translator online" and a lot came out but i tried iGoogle (Google Translator) and here's what i got... pretty funny!

last saturday, July 25, 2009, 1 year old na ang bunso namin... si Matthew Benjamin.
ginugupitan ang batang pinoy after mag 1st birthday, lalu na kapag manipis daw ang buhok - kinakalbo pa.
kami naman ni dadi B, parang to get rid of the baby hair lang. chaka kasi talagang ang haba ng hinaba ng buhok ni Matthew same with Sebastian habang hinihintay ang 1st birthday nila...
Matthew's new do!

translated to:
last Saturday, July 25, 2009, 1 year old the youngest we... David Matthew Benjamin.
ginugupitan to the young Filipino after 1st birthday, especially when said with thin hair - kinakalbo yet.
We also of Dadi B, seems to get rid of the baby hair only. Chaka because really long hair of Matthew hinahaba same with Sebastian while they wait for the 1st birthday... Matthew's new do!

which should be:
last saturday, July 25, 2009, our youngest, Matthew Benjamin, turned 1 year old...
it's a tradition that a Filipino child gets their first hair cut or their head shaved -- especially those with thin hair after the first birthday.
but for me and Dadi B, it's just to get rid of the baby hair. And Matthew's hair really grew so long during the first year same as Sebastian's.... Matthew's new do!

ok, not the best idea... technology really still has a long way to go... :-) maybe i'll just try to translate my blogs (little by little) when i have time.

i love being a mother...

i love the first feel of life in my womb...

i love all the feel of flutter, wiggle, kicks and hiccups...

i love when i was able to give all my strength to push you out and meet you for the first time...

i love to see the love in your eyes for me...

i love the feel of trust in your embrace...

i love to watch you sleep and dream away...

i love to hear you call me mommy and mama in anyway...

i love that you believe and trust everything i say...

i love saying "i love you all the time." to you...

i love hearing you say "i love you all the time too" or "you, you"...

i love kissing and hugging you before you sleep...

i love kissing and hugging you when you are asleep...

i love kissing and hugging you before i let you go to school or play...

i love spending time with you just reading or watching tv or just quietly seating together...

i love hearing your giggle when i tickle you...

i love teaching you all the things you now know...

i love kissing your "pain" away...

i love singing to you...

i love dancing silly with you...

i love watching you make silly things...

i love seeing you make smart discoveries...

but most of all...

i love being a mother because of you.
