My kiddo and his words

Every day he learns to put a string of words together. Some days he amazes me and some days I just get flabbergasted. Reminds me of my younger days.. Really younger days.

Let me tell you a story. when I was very very young. I woke up one day and felt like the world was in my palm and I can speak. However no adult understood my sentences. That was when I was a wee toddler learning to speak. Guess what? I still see the same confused faces on my students. LOL

Anyway these are precious moments for me. Last night he said "Mommy, big bus." While pointing at the buses parked in Donggongon. I am slowly trying to add in some more words to his vocab. Like big green bus or something and he tries to repeat. Sweet.

My lil baby now coos and aahs... so much I think he will be the talkative one. Today he did a full 360 degree turn, while on his tummy. Smilingly he looked at me and then coos again. I can be in no better heaven right then and there. My children are amazing.

Merry Christmas to everyone and every children. I hope they get all their dreams come true.

I also turned 32 recently. How does it feel? Old, tired but happy. I am glad to be surrounded by people who love me.

Amazing kan? Yasmin still blows us away everytime she comes out with some cute phrase..like the other day, she said "Oh my goodness! Look at that!" :) My hubby and I berpandangan sambil tercengang. She learnt a lot of words from tv too... get your kids to watch Playhouse Disney... Not Cartoon Network, that one has more 'violence and obscenities'

Happy Birthday by the way!

How did they find a Gem of a Guy?

This blog is not a reference point to give a tried and true method of finding a Gem of a Guy but just a sharing of experience. I have talked to a few friends who had good solid marriages and I summarised what I learned from them in this blog. I wrote it as a continuation to my last blog on why do good girls choose bad boys? Every time I met a friend who had a very steady and good husband I never failed to ask them how they found these guys. The first thing they always say is that they never liked their present husbands initially and that they had other choices whom they preferred more. However their present husbands did not give up pursuing them for months or years. These men did not stop showing them how much they were cared for. These men came to visit the family and genuinely tried to show how they appreciate them in front of their families and friends. These men were not self centered. These men would try and know your likes and dislikes. Eventually the genuine care was evident. ...

The biggest challenge

The challenges I had in my life were numerous. I come from a very average family. We had food on the table. We had the hand me down clothes. To aspire for a change in life meant I needed to work harder than I ever did. So I did. I worked hard at school for 5 years to get myself eligible for a scholarship. I faced failure after failure to get a decent grade to be able to continue for a degree. I worked hard to get my postgraduate scholarships. Went through so much downs and still I stood up again to just finish what I started. I stand here now thinking if I did all that why is it so hard to do this one thing. To forgive the unforgivable. My insides are all in pain. I want to set myself free. I want to forgive. I want to move on. Lord God in all my travels and adventure I never stopped talking to you. Today more than any other time I implore you to help me forgive.

Metamorphosis

Today is two weeks.. Two weeks of what? I let you guess. It is just sufficient to state that. I never thought I would have to do this. Make such changes in my life and my children's life. I have no choice. In my mind's eye, I never imagined this picture. How can I live?... I tell you what. I do it day to day, week by week, fortnightly by forthnightly.... soon it will be year by year and decades by decades.. By that time, I probably be glad I did this. Pain and time. Time helps heal all pain. I hope that is true. The pain is unimaginable. The pain is great. I pray for peace and calmness in my soul, Joy and Happiness for my kids. I can do this... I can take this role. I can metamorph into this... just give me time... I have to picture this clear in my head. I have to make this picture strong that I succeed and I triumph over adversity. God give me the strength to change what I can change, give me patience, guidance, protection and love.
