I left our house today about ten minutes later than usual.
Gelay was awake early and my sister brought her to our house just when i was about to go. My youngest niece was soo sweet this morning. The moment she saw me, she raised her chubby arms, her small pinkish fingers doing a "close-open" and her expressive eyes staring as if she's going to cry any moment. Generally when she does all this she wants that person to take her from the one who's carrying her. My heart melted, I forgot everything else and cuddled with my angel for ten precious minutes.
She just cling on to me as if she knows that I will be gone for hours.
And i miss my gelay already. The moment I was out of our house I just want to go back and play with her all day. I get to thinking that maybe this is how working mothers feel when they left their kid at home to work.
She developed a liking for me from infanthood. Oh how I love that kid. I don't care if half the people in our place (those who don't know me personally) thinks she's my daughter. I'd be soo lucky to have her as my own.
Most of my free time were spent with gelay. and i know I'll be her surrogate mother for life.
she made me feel special. When i'm around she always choose me to carry her regardless of who's been taking care of her. My sister, her birth mom is ok with it because she knows we have a special connection. She was born february this year, same month that i got fired from my second job. I was feeling so low those times and if not for her presence i will not be able to stand on my own again.
her noisy wailings, her smiles, the way she can kick and make it hurt, her healthy appetite for all foods, i guess everything that is about gelay is wonderful. imagine someone pulling your lips and making it bleed, minutes later it is double in size and hurts a lot but instead of getting angry you'll just laughed it off. That's gelay's effect. nothing can be so hurtful or bad that laughter can't cure. Everything gets better or easier when she's with me. Loving someone unconditionally gives you superhuman strength. Because you know there's nothing you won't do to protect her. How I wish the world will get better. or kinder. and for my little darling, I'll do more than my share to make this world a better place to live in.So, help me God.
