It seemed like yesterday I gave birth to a 2.4kg baby girl
and now she is about 20kg.
It seemed like yesterday I held her in my arms and now I can’t
hold her too long.
It seemed like yesterday I taught her how to walk and now I run
after her.
It seemed like yesterday I made her milk and cereal and now I
cook her spaghetti.
It seemed like yesterday I sang her lullabies and now she
sings “Girl on Fire and Skyscraper”.
It seemed like yesterday I taught her to say mommy and daddy
and now I teach her how to read.
It seemed like yesterday she was never out of my sight and
now I wait for her to finish school.
It seemed like yesterday she occupied 1/3 of the bed and now
I sleep on that 1/3 and daddy is on the floor.
It seemed like yesterday she smelled like milk and now she
smells like sour cream.
It seemed like yesterday I cut your fingernails carefully
and now I put nail polish and nail art.
It seemed like yesterday I changed her diapers and now I have
to bring her to the girl’s comfort room.
It seemed like yesterday she thought daddy was the most
handsome guy and now she likes Kendall of Big Time Rush.
Time flies so fast my
dear baby girl and I can’t bear the thought of not doing the things that we are
now enjoying together. Maybe, someday you won’t let me kiss your “kili-kili”
because you think it is not appropriate.
Or you won’t let me tickle you because you think you are too old or you
are embarrassed to sing and dance with me and daddy. So I have to seize every moment with you
because it is inevitable that someday things will be different. And when you’re
old enough I wish you would still spend family time with me and daddy.
