By Aedrianne Acar

Former 2018 Binibining Pilipinas-Supranational title holder Jehza Huelar is adapting quickly to her new life as a first-time mom.

Jehza, who tied the knot with former Philippine Basketball Association cager Peter June Simon in May 2019, welcomed their baby boy, Peter Jeidon, on March 1, 2021.

In a recent Instagram post, Mommy Jehza told her followers that motherhood is a life changing experience for her.

She explained, “Selflessness and patience ~ #Motherhood, a teacher that is teaching me so many good things, even when it feels so hard to endure. Every day comes a new learning and I am happy to be a student in this journey. Motherhood is a life changer. Every. Single. Day. And I love the person I'm becoming.”

Back in June 2020, the Simon couple had to overcome some pretty difficult moments, after Jehza suffered a miscarriage.

Last week, Jehza marked her first birthday as a mom and was given a special surprise by her wonderful husband.

She considers her birthday this year as the best one so far.

“This is how my usual day looks like 😁 thanks for making it extra special @pjs08

“Sayo kaayo imong surprise, 7 in the morning may pa-flowers, balloons and teddy bear akong banana😍 didn't expect this kay contented nako sa akong gift a month ago(si baby) but thank you for making me kilig 😆😜🤪”

“Thank you also for always making me and my bibimbap happy 🥰

“First birthday as a mum, yet, it's the best... so far😍

“Thank you Lord for the gift of life!!!”
