5 May 2012 - Happy Birthday my Sweet Little Girl-

Our lives are made in these small hours
These little wonders, these twists and turns of fate
Time falls away but these small hours
These small hours still remain...
-Footage of Little Wonders's Song-

Seven years ago on the same date and month just like today, that little baby were born. Her cries were overwhelmed the maternity alley and suddenly woke me up from my desperate bide. My legs trembled when i start to run and chase over the nurse that drove a baby cart from where the cry belongs. "is she my baby, nurse?" asked me, "yes sir, she is, congratulation for your baby daughter born" replied her without turned her heads or broke her hasten steps to carry my little yuyu up to be washed. My pace were stopped at the baby room and I could no longer follow her inside and saw her been washed nor to look what the nurse did to her, i just could starred their shadow from the closed curtains.

As the curtains opened on the next thirty minutes, my little yuyu has been covered with blanket and started to yawn. Just on the seconds, she start to cry again and now as her lungs already filled with the air, she screamed her voice out that was so loud, just to shock the other babies and triggered a choir of babies cry along the room. At that moment i was inadvertent crying a bit and mumbled "welcome to our family, yuyu...". That tears were some kind of puzzled emotions consist of happiness, worry, miracles, outstanding and all of other feelings mix in one. She just born on that morning and from that time, she will filled our family life up and gave us the starting point to taste the parental experiences, an everlasting experience that should be learned by both of us until she is ready to confront the reality.


Our parental learning experiences were draw with so many colors, consist of sort sad and happiness stories. There was a time when she should enter a hospital caused by our failures to learn that every children need their parents on their side to look after them. There also a time when we shall dealt with natural disaster and how i shall carried her on my neck with my right hand and umbrella on the left hand and crossed the flooding which already meet my upper chest at midnight. She was just one and a half year that time.


Today, Its been a while when time passes by and sometimes it was so fast for me to realize that my little baby already reach her seven years. She grew from her first yawn, first cry and her first step. All of her first act seem just like a life picture of yesterday and those initial love become as strong as her growth. I just could not express the feeling of my pride to be her father on how she will hop in happiness just to fetch me up when i got home on many evenings and how she will patiently wait for me to assist her learning just to boost her confidence up to meet her test in school or how she will suddenly call me just to know when will i went to home.

I just wish that it would be everlasting enough for me to be her shoulder to lean of, even though that some day in the near future, she will leave us to start her own family.....

Happy birthday yuyu, a best wishes from papi will always be with you everyday......
