Raeanne's promise...


My lil' darling,

Mummy has just been complained by Aunty Mel for not updating them about you in English... See how concerned they are about you? Well, since grandma is taking care of you right now, mummy decided to be more hardworking and write a lil'...

Well, let's see.. what should we write about today? Mm.. let's talk about your 'performance' these couple of days then..

For the last few days, you were really crying a real lot.. Crying becos milk doesn't reach you as fast as you wanted.. Crying becos we didn't feed you enough.. (By right, your requirement is only 70mls.. Accordg to the Dr, anything more is a bonus.. Well, looks like you are giving us a huge bonus! Cos anything less than 100mls given to you, the 'radio' will start broadcasting..) And the worst kind of cries come from the colic-induced cry.. That bugged you for several days.. And needless to say, you really gave us hell...

A few nights ago, when mummy was taking care of you, you practically kept me up from 1am till ~ 8am.. Of cos, you did give me some breaks in between, but each one was barely an hour! The rest of the day was no better.. You were perpetually hungry! And after feeding you, mummy will put the drowsy you down on the bed.. But smart lil' darling always seem to know.. The moment your bum touch the bed, your face will contort.. And then your lips will pout.. Of cos, what comes next is the 'radio broadcast'... Sigh, mummy couldn't even have a toilet break for goodness sake!

That went on for a few hours... Sleep and rest-deprived mummy got so upset with you that when daddy came back, mummy told daddy that I don't want this naughty girl anymore...

Of cos, mummy don't really mean that...

Today, after mummy fed you at ~ 630pm, you fell asleep in my arms... All was quiet in the room and mummy could hear you breathe.. Suddenly, a wave of emotions swept through mummy.. How lucky I am to have such a pretty and healthy lil' girl.. The fact that I can hold you close, hear you breathe, see your smile, touch your chubby lil' cheeks... Mummy feels so blessed.. Blessed becos mummy has such a sweet lil' angel in my life... And of cos, blessed becos mummy has your wonderful super-daddy who has been there for mummy and you all the time..

Regardless of how busy, stressed, tired and sleep-deprived he is, daddy always make time for you and mummy, help mummy with the endless chores, hear mummy's neverending whining about our naughty lil' princess' daytime misbehaviours, 'cure' mummy's post-natal blues, help mummy 'deal' with you when you refuse to cooperate... (This list is not exhaustive!) He absolutely deserves to be called Super-daddy ya? =)

Well, after reading all these, I hope you do 'repent' and make good your promises (Remember? When daddy mentioned that to you, he said, if you agree then give us a smile? Seriously, you gave us a HUGE smile...) of buying daddy his BMW and bring mummy on my shopping spree k? ;p

Daddy and mummy love you lots!=)
