Expecting our first kid
Thanks for all the blessings and support throughout my pregnancy. It's only 1-month from the due date now...we're so excited and expecting to meet our first kid.
It's time to transform our romantic 2-ppl household to a harmonious 3-ppl family. We'll be buying baby-clothes or baby-food instead of movie-tickets or fashion items.
Interesting quotes:
There comes a time when a woman needs to stop thinking about her looks and focus her energies on raising her children. This time comes at the moment of conception. A child needs a role model, not a supermodel.
~Astrid Alauda
Your children need your presence more than your presents. ~Jesse Jackson
Children are a great comfort in your old age - and they help you reach it faster, too. ~Lionel Kauffman
If I had my child to raise all over again,
I'd build self-esteem first, and the house later.
I'd finger-paint more, and point the finger less.
I would do less correcting and more connecting.
I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.
I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play.
I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I'd do more hugging and less tugging.
~Diane Loomans, from "If I Had My Child To Raise Over Again"
I guess Parenting is not that easy. We are ready to take the challenge. Stay tuned.
