The Little Man

This morning, the little boy woke up shortly after realizing that mummy was missing from his side. In his usual half-asleep state, he lugged his skinny nono to the master bedroom and plop onto the bed, regardless of the fact that he is now a big boy and there is seriously a lack of space. I am so super sure that he is undergoing a growth spurt. Though still skinny and lean, oh my, I can feel my back breaking when he insisted to be carried. Anyway, he then happily declared that he is turning 5 tomorrow. So super cute. Mummy then had to reply him in the most boring voice, “ok, go back to sleep”. Bcos it was the middle of the night and nobody wants an over-excited boy in the middle of the night.

Lil Isaac is not turning 5 tomorrow but we would be throwing him a mini party with the immediate family and usual gang. The boy had been so looking forward to his big day bcos he is so dying to receive bday presents.

Despite being all bumpity knocks, falls and very boy, Lil Isaac is very sweet.  He is ever so cuddly and never saves on his hugs and kisses. He loves Lil Shauna fiercely even when jiejie doesn't always reciprocate the love. He is still very much a mummy boy and I look forward to the day that he stands tall and brave. He still smells fabulous during most nights, probably bcos of the physiogel that we still smeared on him religiously to prevent bad skin. I came to associate that scent with him and secretly wish that smell never go away. Hehe. 

Additionally, he has memorised my hp number. He would now occasionally called me on my mobile to tell me "I love you, mummy!". I tell you, my heart melt already. 

Soon, he would be 5, a big boy already.

I have always thought that my kids are really young and I have a long way to go. In the recent global meeting that I have attended, I found out that many other colleagues have babies and toddlers and suddenly realized that my kids are so old! Soon, they would really grow up and not need mummy. I better stuck to them as much as possible now.
