Hey there Boy Boy!
It has been a while since Mommy has time to sit down and write to you. The past few weeks have been quite the whirlwind. Packing to go home, tying up some unfinished business, enduring the looooong journey home, settling down back in SG, overcoming jet lag, running errands... If Mommy has time, I will try to recap how we made it through all that... but for now, Mommy and Daddy are just cherishing the times we have with you before we both have to go back to work.
Thinking back, Mommy is really lucky that Daddy has the time to be a very hands-on Daddy and supportive hubby. Mommy loves to look at both her big man and little guy playing and laughing together, sleeping off the afternoon, going out for walks and even watching Jon Stewart... The past three months are filled with such precious memories -- your first smile, your coos and gurgles, you listening intently to us as if you understood what we say, and sometimes replying with a squeal or two... There were challenging moments too -- our breastfeeding journey together was probably frustrating for you as well as for me at times, and then trying to teach you how to feed from the bottle, and basically trying to figure out what you are trying to tell us every time you cry. I don't know how we managed to overcome all that, but we did! And you deserve a hug and a kiss from Daddy and Mommy for being such a good Boy Boy!
Soon, Mommy will have to leave for work... that means less time to spend with Boy Boy... Mommy is really going to miss those days when we had all the time to play and bond together. But at the same time, Mommy is glad that we are now back home, and that there are so many people here who can't wait to shower you with lots of love.
