Alas, it was not as tough as I had imagined it would be. But it's not an easy journey either.
Our baby girl, Eunice, will be 14 months old in a couple of weeks ... Oh, how she has grown up ... from a little baby to a toddler just learning to take her first steps on her own and speaking more than just baby language ... The way she hugs me. When she wants me to "Pao Pao" her once I reached home ... Oh, hmmm ... The sweet memories make our efforts and sleepless nights all worthwhile.
To share with you, the first few months are the most difficult, especially for first-time parents ... Once you get used to the routine of feeding milk, burping after feeds, changing diapers, etc, it soon become second nature ... As the saying goes "Practice makes perfect", so practice more ... LOL
And pretty soon, we will be going through the same thing all over again ... for our second "xiao bu dian" (little one) :)
And this time, I will be waiting ... with more anticipation than apprehension.
While we try to teach our children about life,
our children teach us what life is all about.
