Missing those moments: dedicated to my prince

I can't believe he is 13. Where did the time go? My baby is a teenager now. He's growing much too fast. It seems like only yesterday I cradled him in my arms. He cuddled in my lap. Watching him played, witnessing his first step, his first word, the first smile and every little thing about him.
Being the first child, it's normal to have all the attention. Every parent would remember and capture those special moments. These moments won't last forever so we better enjoy them while they last.


2 days old and the other one baru pandai meniarap.


His 1st performanced, when he was in KS1 Mutiara International Grammar School, Kuala Lumpur, 2001.

I remember expecting my first child and living far away from my parent, pretty much relied on 2 amazing people that have made things easier for a new mom. I think most of us are quite familiar with Dr Miriam Stoppard's Pregnancy and Birth book and Dr Spork's classic bestseller 'Baby and Child Care'. These books were very helpful to me in facing all the challenges and responsibilities.


These books banyak berjasa to me.


Celebrating his birthday with his classmates: KS1 and Grade 1, Princess K pun ade sama.


I like this pic, when he was in Year 5. It was taken before the actual class photo session. Just being themselves.

Parenting is a never-ending learning process. Right now I'm facing another challenge, at times can be overwhelming for both parent and child. Dealing with the physical, intellectual, social and emotional growth. I don't really remember having problem dealing with the terrible twos, I guess it is because it went well for both of us and I hope this one is full of excitement. It is like a roller coster with the twists and turns but deep down I know everything will be ok.
I am once again up to the challenge.


Happy 13th birthday to my dear prince. May you have many blessing throughout your new phase of life. We will always be there for you. Hugs and kisses...
