A while ago, I posted an old article about Addie. Addie has been sick since Saturday. I felt so down and I missed seeing Addie so happy and lively so I thought that I’d share a funny story about her.
Then I received a message from a concerned reader which says basically that I write too much about my daughter. It’s not “Addie Network” but “The Soshal Network”, she said.
Although we usually view comments and criticisms as constructive, this one just hurt me. Maybe because I have been stressed and emotional due to Addie’s condition, I interpreted the comment to mean that Addie has no place in The Soshal Network.
The Soshal Network is about me, Camille and Faye. We write about our lives, our experiences and the things and people we love. I am a mother. Thus, I write about motherhood. I write about my daughter.
Maybe she means well and I just misinterpreted it, but still I learned that I cannot please everyone… I am not trying to. I write about my daughter because I love doing it, and some, I think, enjoy reading it as well. I deleted the Facebook post where I shared the article about Addie, but I regretted it. I shouldn’t have been affected by that message. I will never stop writing about my daughter.
Addie is part of me. Addie is part of The Soshal Network, just like Faye and Camille’s boyfriends and families.
If you don’t like what I share, you can choose to ignore but no one can stop me from writing about what I love most about my life. 🙂
To end this blog post, I would like to quote the Pabebe Girls…

Don’t bother to care Ms. D. Nung una kong bumisita sa blog nyo, una ko pinuntahan yung may tag na baby.. dahil jan minahal ko na si Addie.. gone are the days na puro selfie ang inaatupag natin nung single pa tayo.. ngayon mostly ang anak ko na ang laman ng IG at FB ko hehe kaya I can so relate 🙂 Hi ADDIE hope you will meet my Shaun someday 🙂
Aww… thank you Celynyen! 🙂 Hope to meet you and Shaun too 🙂 Ay… si Addie lang pala gusto mo ma-meet. Wala kang magagawa, sasama ako hahaha!
Ouch! That was mean. =(
I’m also a mom, and I can’t help but talk about my son all day long! Humatching lang ata anak ko, kinuwento ko na sa mundo eh.
Well, as what I always, Addie is my peborit household character at TSN. So just don’t mind that comment pls. Asarin mo, kwentuhan mo pa ng kwentuhan ke Addie!
And if I may add, YOUR BLOG, YOUR RULES.
Eh di gumawa din siya sariling bidyo nya, este blog niya! =)
TSN is blog for everyJUAN! 😉
Yes! 🙂
I adore Addie and I super love your blog posts about her! Bibo kid and pwedeng artista! Kung magkaedad lang kami, sya ang gusto kong ng maging friend! Hahhahaha!

Hi Viv a.k.a. D! I just had to comment on this. I love your entries about Addietot! Don’t stop writing about her and your joys and woes on motherhood. I learn a lot from them more power to you, P and S!

Thank you 🙂
Thank you so much for all your comments! I feel so much better now knowing that you love Addie too 🙂 mwahugzzzz 🙂
Isn’t it because of awesome Addie why D is called Domesticated? Just like Provinciated indirectly promoting the beautiful BaCav. Teka lang, blog nila ang the soshal network, huwag niyo sila pigilan!
Penny! Kailan kayo mag-aasawa? (Titas of Manila na question bwahahaha!) Thank you so much for your comment 🙂

Thanks Eylin 🙂
You are so right. This is your blog, your space, so you have all the right to share whatever that may or not please the readers. Edi i-skip niya kung ayaw niya haha. 🙂
Roch!!!! Gusto mo ipakausap sa Padede Girls yung nag-comment sa blog mo?! Hahahaha!
Thank you thank you 🙂
Hi, Ms. D. Just never mind that pathetic loser comment and continue to write about Addie’s adventures and misadventures, ang saya at ang kulet kaya. Addie’s kakulitan and wit never failed to make me smile..:)
More power TSN! Looking forward to more kwentos with Addie.
Yun nga, happy and kulit kid siya kaya gusto ko palaging i-share. 🙂 Thank you so much, Vernadette 🙂
i love your addie stories! makes me relate more since i am also a mom.

Hi Darci! Thank you :*
Miss D ,
Just ignore them. as to what you’ve said ,we cannot please everyone but we are here who loves to read your blog and sumusubaybay ika nga;-) …anyways nkakarelate much since I do have a lil girl too.
How old na siya? 🙂 Thanks, Mindy 🙂
I feel you, D. If I can write as beautifully as you, I would also write everyday about my son. We are just proud moms at hindi nila tayo mapipigilan! Keep up the good work!
I can’t write well… minsan lumalabas lang kung super emotional hahaa! Di nila tayo mapipigilaaaaaaaan!!!! 🙂
And one raging Addie fan here. Hugs Mrs D. I adore your little girl, a real trouper. On a lighter note.. Sikat na si Addie! – Addie’s silent fan here 🙂
Thanks Lui! Mwah! 🙂
Your posts about Addie are among my favorites. Kung walang bagong post, minsan binabasa ko na lang ulit yung mga luma. 🙂
Awwww! Thanks, SM 🙂
Ang bitter nu’ng nagsabi sa’yo nyan, D! Ano akala niya sa’yo, irresponsible blogger? Kainis yan ha!
Ako naiyak! Pero okay na. I’m so happy with all your comments. Thank you so much, K 🙂
sad but true ms D, we simply cannot please everyone – but sbi nga do what you feel in your heart to be right – for you’ll be criticized anyway.
x’s: thanks for sharing ur experiences with Addie’s kakulitan =)
Thank you so much, Agnes 🙂
