Dearest Naira,
Two years ago you were this small creature that somehow came out of me. I could not believe you have made me a mum! But you have brought so much joy to so many people!
It is amazing how a picture of you when posted on facebook could have garnered so much likes and comments from so many friends of mummy and daddy.
You were such an easy baby. You smile alot, feed alot and you were a joy to be around with. Although i miss the times when I could just sit at coffee bean and waste the day away, I am still glad that you have kept my days and nights occupied. You are such a learner. You picked up things so fast and you are so full of energy! We are always so amazed with your antics and the things you do to entertain. Of course there are days when you make mummy and daddy mad, but we NEVER love you less!
You are the first and the eldest child in the family (just like me!). I hope you will not find it a burden to be the eldest and the most responsible one. You WILL always have to give in to your little sister, whom we know you love lots. And we WILL always make you give in to your little sister. But I hope you will understand that by doing that, you are building a character full of responsibilities, kindness, sharing, caring and love. And we will always love you for that. We hope you will also know and realise that we both love you both equally just as much, never more than the other and never less.
As you grow up, I hope you will realise that you are love by many and appreciate the love that you get. Life will not get easy but mummy and daddy will always be there for you. For every strength you find, there will also be a weakness. For every time your heart gets broken, you will find a love much stronger and more beautiful later on. Never settle for less but never be greedy for more. Always be considerate of others and don't do what you don't want others to do to you. Love yourself more before you love another and always remember I LOVE YOU no matter what.

Sunshines in my life
A month has passed since Baby Girl was born. Life has been full of ups and downs. It has not been easy yet it has not been that difficult compared to some others I know. The only challenge I am facing right now is more about managing my time.
With 2 beautiful girls, I need to learn to give my time fairly to spend with both of them. Our Little Gerl will turn 2 soon. At this age, she has shown so much cleverness and maturity (sometimes). She is now able to tell what she wants, needs and nots. Her love for baby sis is amazing! She is able to call her name 'Arissa', helps with throwing the diapers and even when baby sis cries in the middle of the night, she would wake up and give baby sis a kiss, as if assuring her that everything will be alright, before returning to her sleep. I could not have been more grateful for having her........
I cannot wait to return to work and get my routine back. However, there is that slight hesitation, I can't help wonder how my mum going to handle 2 toddlers with a 4 month old baby once I start working. Even though I know she is capable of doing it, I am just worried that they will exhaust her. And I wonder if baby girl could take bottle milk.
I keep saying this, but I have never imagined myself being a mum, whats more a mother of 2. Although the feeling is amazing, there are times when I honestly wish I had more time to spend with myself or with Soul before having to handle 2 of them. I can't help but envy my friends at times who still are enjoying their lives travelling. Mum keeps telling us to go ahead and travel while the kids still young and we can leave them with her. But the motherly part of me are still anxious when it comes to leaving them behind. Haish.....its hard to be a mum!
So now that we are still only a month, I am learning to enjoy every minute spending with my 2 girls. Whether it is during our night time feeding or toilet training, I am grateful for the 2 sunshines in my life and I could not ask for more.........

Would Love be just as transparent????
Was riding the bus home after a long day? My faithful MP3 plug to my ears. Daydreaming about the days to come. Planning what to do,what to wear. Bus stopped. In my mind, "One more stopt to go......"
A man caught my attention. He was what? In his early 30s? After allighting he was standing facing the door. Waited after a passenger got down, he raised and stretched his hand to the door. A woman hold his hand. She was pretty and not pregnant. They walked home, side by side.
I smiled wondering if they were newlyweds? Or is their love still going strong and so transparent. Its rare to see this kind of gestures......How many would envy it, I wonder again??
