You're My life

The highlight of my life:

Dylan is callling me. "Mama ... mama ... where are you mama?"
"I'm here nak.. di kamar". Dylan gets in the bedroom. Wrap his arms around my legs.
Then he said, "Mama, you're my life"

My heart aches with wonder.
And that's why ... life has so many different faces.
When one doesn't seem to measure up to your standard, listen & look closely elsewhere.
It's the moment that will go away, but the memory lingers.

3 Years Look Me! Look Me!

Look Me! Look Me, mama!!
That's what he said all the time these days.

It's amazing how much he has grown.
Although most of the time I do pick up after him, now I can tell him to get me something. Closing the door, getting my phone and my shoes.

Whenever we're going out, Dylan ... you make sure mama gets her jacket. You go to our closet and look for my jacket, sweater, my hat.
"Your pi mama, your pi ..." (topi)
Then you step out the door and reach for my boot. "Here mama, it's your shoes".
Thank you sayang....

Uuhhh ... how could I don't feel grateful for having you, boy.

Daily Life

Dylan,

Tiap hari akan kucoba ketikkan kisah harianmu. Mungkin tak ada yang terlalu penting, hanya kisah2 biasa. Namun ketika kutunggu kisah2 besar, akhirnya tak pernah kuketikkan apa2 untukmu lagi.

Hari ini nak, badanmu agak panas, you're a little cranky. I gave you tylenol 2 times, and you seem better. But somehow you don't want to eat much anyway.
Today we spend the lazy summer day at home mostly. You and me in bed, kitchen then bed again. Papa has to work today.

I shaved your hair 2 days ago, so hopefully you got some breezy air coming through your head. Wajahmu jadi tambah bulat, I can't help but kissing you. You're just too beautiful for me.

Tadi kita mandi bareng2, and you don't want to get off the tub, tapi nangis2 melulu, I don't know what to do. You were driving me crazy. So I picked u up anyway, you were still screaming when I took you to bedroom. Seeing your face so frustated, I felt so sad, I tried to hug you, but you refused and ran away from me. I was mad, but I couldn't anymore. I felt your rejection, I make you believe you make me cry .. you saw me sad and so you threw your arms in the air asking me to hold you. I didn't realize until then, while holding you, I had my silent cry.
I love you, son ...
I love you ...
