sleeping child...

The Milky Way upon the heaven is twinkling just for you

And Mr. Moon he came by to say goodnight to you

I'll sing for you, I'll sing for mother, we're praying for the world

And for the people everywhere gonna show them all we care
Oh my sleeping child, the world's so wild but you've built your own paradise

That's one reason why I'll cover you sleeping child
If all the people around the world, they had a mind like yours

We'd have no fighting and no wars, there would be lasting peace on earth

If all the kings and all the leaders, could see you here this way

They would hold the earth in their arms, they would learn to watch you play
(Cover my child) I'm gonna cover my sleeping child

(Keep you away) keep you away from the world so wild

Keep you away from the world, away from the world so wild

back to work...

hey baby,

mummy is back to work after the 3mths maternity leave. and i misses you so so so much...
we've been "sticking" together 24/7 for the past months and mummy really dread the day where i've to return back to the work force. and today is THE DAY.
you may be too young to express yourself yet but we believe you misses daddy & mummy as much as we do.
mummy had your pictures on the work table so that i can still "see" you during these 10hours. only thing i miss is your usual morning smiles and cuddles. but its alright, we'll make up whatever we lost during weekends ok...
the care arrangement now is to have grandpa and grandma taking care of you when mummy goes to work. they have been "nagging" at mummy to leave you with them during the weekday so to avoid rushing to and fro from work, but wei insisted on bringing you home every night so that we can spend quality time together. it may be tough to shuttle here and there (even so within a stipulated time frame), but every minute we can spend togther counts, no matter how long or how short.

stay happy, healthy and be safe.
love you lots...

before i was a mom...

Before I was a Mom,

I made and ate hot meals,

I had unstained clothing,

I brushed my hair every day,

I had quiet conversations on the phone,

I slept as late as I wanted and I slept all night long.

Before I was a Mom,

I cleaned my house each day.

I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.

I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.

I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom,

I had never been puked on.

Pooped on.

Chewed on.

Peed on.

or pinched by tiny fingers.

I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.

I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom,

I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests. Or give shots.

I never looked into teary eyes and cried.

I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.

I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

I never got up in the middle of the night to make sure everything was okay.

Before I was a Mom,

I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down.

I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.

I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.

I never knew that I could love someone so much.

I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom,

I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.

I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.

I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.

I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom,

I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment

or the satisfaction of being a Mom.

I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much,

before I was a Mom.
