How fast time flies…
When u’re single and doing a routine job everyday, u wouldn’t have realised how fast clock is ticking. It’s not as if I don’t appreciate time, I do but when I was younger and just out from uni with my first job, I wished I was 27 or 28 then. That’s becoz at that time, ppl still regard u as a freshie and naive. You still have to depend on your parents ( sometimes) for financial support though I’m glad to say that since I got my first job, I have been able to pay my insurance, car instalment and etc without any help.
Also, looking back 1 year ago where I was anticipating for the birth of my first child and when he was born, I kept asking when he will start his first baby language of ga-ga, his first smile, his first body roll over, his first teeth, first crawl, stand unsupported and finally walk. Why? Firstly so that he won’t be so dependable on us the adults to meet his needs and secondly, it’s a joy to see him achieving all these. For those who has been there as parents, you’ll know what I meant. You’ll know how proud you are and you can also see the brightly lit face of your toddler.
My son achieved all that and he started walking after his first birthday and mind you I was overjoyed when he took his first few steps! Now, he’s quiet pro in his walking. Then there was the proud moment of bringing him to the mall and letting him walk independently while he explore his new surrounding. It’s fun, ppl actually tried to coaxed him to walk over to their side because it’s so funny the way he walked… like a duckling and not straight. The moment before he fell, he was able to regain control again and walk.
Now that he’s walking, it doesn’t mean I can sit down and relax. I have to start running after him with my bulging stomach making sure he doesn’t play with dirty or dangerous stuffs while you know you can NEVER ask a child to sit still. Time spent with him is never boring, it’ll only make you exasperated. There are time he plays with his urine, shit, jumping from the sofa, pooking his fingers into the electrical code, opening and taking everything out from the drawers and God knows what else!
Am I anticipating the birth of my second baby? I do but I also wish that I’m back in my life as single where I can just lay lazily on my bed the whole day, not getting any food or urine on my clothes and chit-chatting with my girlfriends over our dreamguys, shopping for sexy clothes (now I have to think of which sensible clothes to wear so that my little one won’t pull easily and exposed my chest) and make-up.
