Writer’s Workshop- Dearest Baby

Dearest Baby ,

Today marks your 8th month old birthday.  It’s a joy waking up seeing your eyes sparkle and you showing me your toothless grin in the morning. You are a really happy-go-lucky baby and really enjoy having your mama around to cater to your needs 24/7.

Everyone loves your chubby cheeks  and Michelin Tyre body. These are the trademarks which you share with your brothers when they were around the same age. Your sweet smile and laughter are really infectious. You really know how to brighten up everyone’s day.

The way you call out “Mummy” in your cute little voice really melts my heart. It erases all the tiredness and physical exhaustion I face on a daily basis  carrying you around while going about with the daily chores.

You are Daddy’s little princess and you really know how to tug as his heart strings with your bewitching eyes and shouting in joy  “Papa” as he steps through the main door after a day at work.

I love watching how you are so curious about the little things around you and how excited you get when you suddenly find that you are able to manipulate the toy that you have been playing with.

Watching you grow and meet the various milestone is really satisfying and I won’t trade it for any job in the world.

Lots of love,

Mummy.
