As reality sunk in this morning, I felt a warm tingling inside of me. Noo… not Junior! Junior’s too small to create a sensation yet. But I feel my whole body, my whole self and my whole life changing! “Welcome to motherhood!†they screamed!
And so, my worries started. Hmmm… will I be able to carry Junior safely to term? Will I be a good mum? Can I bring him up well? What if I get tired? What if he’s not healthy, and inherited my baby fits problem? What if he’s a slow learner like me? What if he’s not a pretty kid? Ahhh…. What school should I enroll him in?!! *rolls eyes*
On the brighter side… hee… like a typical women who grows up thinking of weddings and bridesmaids, my Junior’s already got a Godmother! (NO! Not Fairy Godmother.. Nothing fairy-like about her ;p) As usual, the “bride’s maid” was the first non-family to find out. And her joy and delight was incredible! I suppose she was more happy then all of us. And there she was, offering to help out in dunno-what on the very first month of pregnancy… aww… there’s more months to come!! And thus, she’s given the task to learn some knitting and to produce Junior’s first jumper! So great is our new KaiMa (Godma in Cantonese!).
Right! Not that the Man was not happy but we kind of wanted it, and expected it. So no real surprise there, but we did observe a moment of silence jus holding each other in our arms. Me praying and giving God thanks under my breath. Dunno what went on in his mind thou. =/ When we parted, his eyes were red. Hmmm … must have been thinking how much it’s gonna cost him from now on. And how the demanding preggy wife’s now got a valid excuse to ask for things! Hiak hiak hiak…. ;p
