MANILA, Philippines – Jessa Zaragoza got honest and emotional in a birthday greeting to her daughter Jayda, revealing that she had a miscarriage just last April, and thanking Jayda for helping her get through the ordeal.

"I'd like to take this time Anak para pasalamatan ka (to thank you), for helping me face the trials I've gone through this past Holy Week. When I had a miscarriage last April, you reminded me that life is a gift," she wrote.

Anak I’m feeling kinda emotional right now, thinking about you and the thought na 15 years old ka na bukas! I’m just so proud of you Anak. I admire kung paano mo natutunan ihandle ang mga adversities that have come your way. Maliit man o malaki. Kung paano mo sha inapproach with maturity and paano mo sinasali ang Panginuon sa bawat yugto ng Buhay mo. I just want to thank you for being YOU, magpapaka Nanay na ako ha pero totoo naman, You’re face is as beautiful as your heart You are strong but you remain humble, You are smart, so talented and you don’t take the gifts that GOD has given you, for granted. Nakikita ko pano mo inaapply ang discipline mo in honing your craft at yung respeto mo sa industriyang pinasok mo. You are still the same, simula ng bata ka, You never forget to say THANK YOU to us, even to our staff, our driver, basta taong involved na kasama mo after a whole day of work, bago pa tayo makapasok sa gate natin, You say sorry agad agad kung kailangan, ayaw na ayaw mo na may masasaktan ka o mapapahiya. Naiiyak ako ngayon pag naiisip ko kung gaano ka ka compassionate sa ibang tao. Kahit nga sa aso mo, kahit may allergy ka sa anything with fur. Of course you are not perfect, kasi sa ganda mong yan ang lakas mong kumain lalo na ng chips!!! Favorite mo ang doritos at tostitos with Salsa, burger, pasta bolognese & pizza. Mejo ayaw mo nga lang mamigay ng french fries But nevertheless, I’m just so thankful to the LORD na ako ang napili nya na Maging Nanay mo. I’d like to take this time Anak para pasalamatan ka, for helping me face the trials I’ve gone through this past Holy Week. When I had a Miscarriage last April, you reminded me that LIFE is a Gift. Thank you Anak for helping me move on and helping me realize na “Wag natin sayangin ang bawat araw maging malungkot” We are still so blessed in many ways. “Thy Will be done” . Salamat @jayda, Anak, sa lahat. I love you very much, My one and only baby .Sana makilala din ng mga tao kung gano ka Pure ang puso mo. Blessed Birthday to you, dai!!! Love, MOM #HappyBirthdayJayda #JaydaAt15 #theAvanzados #JAYDA #dingdongavanzado #jessazaragoza #miscarriage #LifeisAGift #OnlyJesus

"Thank you Anak for helping me move on and helping me realize na 'wag natin sayangin ang bawat araw maging malungkot' (that we shouldn't waste each day being sad)," she added.

Jessa also took the time to write about her daughter's kindness, strength, talent, and quirks.

"You are smart, so talented and you don't take the gifts that God has given you for granted," Jessa wrote, saying that she sees how disciplined Jayda is as she works to break into the music industry.

Jayda is Jessa's only child with Dingdong Avanzado. Like both her parents, Jayda is a singer. She is currently signed with Cornerstone Entertainment, and has recently released her debut single, "Text."

Jessa and Dingdong have been married since 2001. – Rappler.com
