Today, I've decided to blog about one of the loves of my life, my own flesh and blood, my bundle of pride and joy, my cutie, my little girl.....my very own miss thing! (some call her AA) She truly lifts my spirit when I'm down, I can talk to her about anything wheher or not she understands exactly what I'm saying- it's like teraphy, she is like my best friend cos she's always there for me!
Looking back at the day she was born - October 7 2003- I remember the huge relief I felt after she popped out! Phew! I mean she literally flew out after I gave my hardest push- the Doctors named her Paratrooper! I wondered whether I could raise a kid without help - then my hubby was in the U.S for his MBA and he only came to visit us that christmas/Newyear after which he returned... now that's another story for another day...
I remember changing messy diapers, breast-feeding (oh I loved it - honest, it's such an experience in bonding) waking up at night just 'cos she was on baby jet-lag, teething, her learning to sit, crawl, stand, walk, run, CHASE!
I remember her crying for no reason and me being like really mad cos I was soooo tired...
I remeber checking in on her in between naps cos I was scared she hadn't moved...
I remember the first time I saw her smiling in her sleep, my mum said she was having a good dream ;-) I remember the first time she said Mummy- I was in awe and made her say it again and again, I remember when hubby came back from school finally in 2005 (second time of his seeing her physically) and she wouldn't sleep all night, I read her eyes and she was like mum who's this man and WHY IS HE SHARING OUR BED? But blood is thicker than water as they say and in less than one week, she understood the meaning of one of the words I'd taught her- DADDY.
I remember the first time she went to school, I cried cos I felt a part of me was growing up and I was scared she wouldn't cope...but she showed me she could..Now she's 3 and a half and learning new things everyday, taking form just as God intended.. I know the job is far from finished, but I can proudly say that with the help of our Father, so far, so good! Everything's turning out well! She's grown from the baby who was so little, so frail to a little woman....
some eye candy for real below...
@ 2 months with my mum..
taken 2 weeks ago..she's the one on the far left.....
What's she reading?
I'm teaching her to love books like me, so I read to her a whole lot! She's trying a little experiment here, she took these last 3 pixs of her book herself using my phone!
A lil kiss for my gal..... Yeah, that's us... taken in her room some night about a month ago!
Enjoy!

she looked cute when she was a baby. Even though we could just see her back in the second pic, its obvious that she has grown cuter. By God's grace, she would grow up to be a very beautiful woman & will bring you more joy & happiness than she does now.

What loveelly pixs. Kids are indeed God's blessings. She's sooo cute. Even though my 3-year old son is sometimes a terrorist, I feel the same way. You managed very well, it couldn't have been easy with your spouse being away at the time. U are a terrific mum!
