Having Bad Days Lately

Posted by admin On October - 23 - 2008 1 COMMENT

I’m on my exploring stage and aside from my toys which do not have much appeal to me sometimes I want to discover interesting things around me that is why whenever I’m alone on my walker or when someone hold me I’ll try to enjoy myself by touching everything as long as my hand reach it. But while I’m enjoying my time they always say “NO” and this made me cry. Things that I find interesting are:
  • television remote control – interesting when the channel suddenly change or the when I push it and the sound goes to high volume.
  • mom cellphone – I’ll grab it when ringing.
  • electric cord – I’m curious whats behind this long white electric cord.
  • curtain-I’m having a good time pulling curtains
  • mirror- I enjoy to touch the cold steel that made this whole body mirror located just beside the door and I can reached it while on my walker
  • newspaper or any paper on kotatsu table – of course I still don’t read it I just want to turn it to pieces
  • heater- located permanently on the corner of the house- recently I discover a push button on this heater and whenever I push it my mom scream “don’t” .
Just last week when dad put something on the standing mirror so that it will not fall whenever I touch it and now they’re thinking again to put something to be a hindrance on my way to the heater. And because those things seems not good for me so they gave me remote control and cellphone but all of these were already broken.

Meanwhile, I always want to listen to my dad when he is singing with his guitar and harmonica, No he is not a musician he only loves to play those things and he said he will teach me how to play with it someday. The guitar attracts me of its sound but when I touch it I just enjoy pulling its string.

About my talking progress, before going to bed tonight mom was surprised because its my first time to pronounce the syllable “mam mam ma ma” the word she was longing to hear.

The first thing that make me smile from the time I wake up every morning is when I see the smallest Pooh bear I have on my bedside, it makes me more happy when mom make her voice sounds funny as if the baby bear greets me a good morning …. playing with this stuff toy my day begins.

I just turned 8 months old last Thursday and finally at this age I’m enjoying the crawling stage unlike before that I easily cry. Also on this age you will notice a mole on my left chin and left shoulder are starting to appear.

Meanwhile at this seasons you will enjoy the sight of Cosmos flowers in the neighborhood, this is a good place for strolling.

Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day to all wonderful father around the world.
This poem is dedicated to my father:

A Little Girl Needs Daddy
A little girl needs Daddy
For many, many things:
Like holding her high off the ground
Where the sunlight sings!
Like being the deep music
That tells her all is right
When she awakens frantic with
The terrors of the night.
Like being the great mountain
That rises in her heart
And shows her how she might get home
When all else falls apart.
Like giving her the love
That is her sea and air,
So diving deep or soaring high
She’ll always find him there.
