I just want to let you know that all opinions are my own and I may earn from qualifying purchases. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. Enjoy and feel free to share with your friends!

I thought I had parenting down pat.  I have two teen girls and a young boy who are pretty well-adjusted (with normal teen angst and a teenie-weenie teenage rebellion thrown in the mix) which is a perfect match for me who is a pretty well-adjusted mom.

Or am I?

A month ago, I saw this entry in my son’s school journal(by the way, he gave me his approval to print this entry):

journal 1

Let me write it down for you:

He wrote:

Today it was super fun.  So I think I will design the phoenix since I got a plan, but I will tell you something.  I’m exactly the last student here because as I’m writing this, I’m at school and the time is 5:58.

Wait.  Did you read that right?

Did it say he was the last student in school and it was 5:58???

Now, don’t judge me.  This does not usually happen, except the time when he left our house at 10 PM when he was just 3 years old (will write about that later) and when we forgot to pick him up at 5 PM instead of 2 PM when he was in the second grade (although he did not notice the time because Manong Jonathan – the school guard – taught him how to bike with a big two-wheeled bike).

Well, my boy was eventually picked up from school at around 6:48.  He felt really worried that something happened to us, but he was positive towards what happened:

I think something good is going to happen because I saw a dove and it’s getting darker.  So I think this was an awesome day since this thing happened.

(Adrian insisted that I include this in my post:  Manong Jonathan, the school guard, told me that my mom called and told me I will be picked up soon.  Reason:  Cause my dad went to a funeral wake and forgot about picking me up.)

Adrian felt safe because he has Manong Jonathan with him.

Manong Jonathan is the school guard who has been with the school for almost 15 years.
And he has been chosen by me and Adrian as our unsung hero.

husayatmalasakit

Manong Jonathan has been with us and the BTLC family looking after the children, maintaining the school and helping in making learning aids like Math beads and the abacus.
Manong Jonathan is also Adrian’s sensei in Aiki-Jitsu.  No wonder the kids don’t mess with him (they also love hanging out with him).

    Wow ang galing naman ni Manong Guard 🙂 Sana lahat ng ga school guards ay katulad nya. Mabuhay po kayo manong!

    Guards who keep us safe don't always get the recognition they deserve. This is very sweet and appreciative.

    It is really nice to know that Manong Guard has concern, bihira na yan sa panahon ngayon.

    It's nice to have someone you can trust to and it's very rare now a days. But I find it really sweet that such gesture was reciprocated by recognizing his efforts and good deed as what your son did.

    Schools need more guards like him – those who don't just work for salary but those who love what they're doing.

    I must say Manong Guard is a rare kind. Not all people has this great concern and love for his work and the people he work for. So mabuhay ka Manong Jonathan!

    My father had been a security way back then and I must say he hard a time. That manong guard deserves a recognition.

    Good to know that there are person like Mang Jonathan. Aside from doing their duties at work, he used to let students feel safe inside the campus.
    Not all school guards will have that care to the students.

    Thanked God some one is still concern with other people. At least you know that he is safe inside the school

    That is so nice. I remember my sister having a good experience with the guards too. It was already past 7pm and hindi pa sya nasusundo. Yung mga guards ng school when they started eating their dinner (their baon), they shared it with my 7yo sister. Natawa pa nga ako kasi, humingi pa daw sya ng coke sa guard. Hehe
