Judy Ann Santos has this advice for fellow parents
Prominent drama actress Judy Ann Santos encouraged her fellow parents to spend quality time with their kids.
Juday is fulfilling her duty as a mother as how she remarkably portrays her different characters in her acting projects. She is now a parent to Yohan, 19; Lucho, 13; and Luna, 8. The actress and her husband Eat Bulaga host Ryan Agoncillo are hands-on parents.
In a recent interview, based on the article in GMA Entertainment, the award-winning actress highlighted the importance of spending time with the kids.
For Judy Ann Santos, despite her busy schedule, not just being a showbiz personality but also an entrepreneur, spending quality time with the children is priceless.
“Hindi ako nakakaramdam ng pagod, more so there’s time management. Importante ‘yung time management and ‘yung support mo with your partner. Siyempre, sisiguraduhin mo you spend time with your kids, each one of them, kasi ang mga anak namin five years apart ng pagitan ng bawat isa sa kanila,” she said.
The actress also said that the kids are going through different phases and problems so it is important to have quality time with them. She shared that Ryan and their son Lucho would have their date. At times, Ryan and Yohan will have their date while sometimes she and Yohan would also have their bonding moments.
Juday pointed out that these are the memories that their kids will have that cannot be bought in a toy store, or apps because this is not online.
“It’s a memory that you create with your family na hindi mananakaw, so napaka-importante sa akin,” she said. In order to have quality time with the kids, Juday said that it is important to know how to manage time.
With this, she makes sure that her schedules are well-planned. She would have a day off or have a rest day in between works so that she can do a reset and this time will also be spent with her family.
Judy Ann Santos also mentioned the importance of showing appreciation to the kids even through small gestures like writing notes or letters for them.
“I make little notes sa mga baon nila, same goes with my husband, lalagyan ko rin siya ng little notes. Little things like letting your family know that you think of them and how much you love them, just makes me happy,” she shared, adding that her family feels a bit sad if they don’t see the notes from her.
