Having Cha Cha in our lives, completely changed us. We're learning patience every day. Just when we thought that he's stopped whinging before sleeping at night, he starts again. And now, we're back to teething as his top 2 teeth are making their appearances. Every day is a new experience with Cha Cha. Even simple things like clapping his hands and picking food and putting into his mouth are huge milestones. We celebrate little things like these.
I've had family and friends that remark that Cha Cha is so blessed and lucky to have us as parents. I tell them other wise. The truth and reality of things is that, once Cha Cha was put up for adoption, he would be lucky or blessed to be in any family that he'll be placed in. We know for a fact that there are lots of families in Hong Kong that are earnestly and anxiously waiting for a child and he will be loved tremendously. The truth of the matter is that we are blessed by him. Through him, we learnt unconditional love, patience, kindness and I could go on. He has taught us a great deal. As a couple, we have learnt and are still learning loads. We are thankful to Cha Cha for teaching and showing us heaps. Yes, Cha Cha has blessed and enriched us. Last night, Cha Cha was fussing before sleeping. As I was putting him to bed, I was reminded by the meaning and understanding of unconditional love. I whispered to him, 'Little Cha Cha, no matter how long you take to fall asleep, ma ma will always be here and will love you no matter what happens.'
Yes, it takes a lot of love and patience. Is it worth it? Yes, it is. For all the trips to US, Europe to anywhere on Earth, it is worth it. Yes, we're not heading to States this summer, trips to Paris and London shelved for the moment, yes, it is still worth it. Once again, Lord, thanks for giving us this call. And if it's your call for us to adopt another, we will still put our hands up for another. For now, enjoy the pics. Yes, I'm going to say this....Can't believe he has grown so much!
Little Cha Cha's first day at home. Look, he was so tiny. He could barely fit into his clothes. (4 months)
I love this pic of Cha Cha and JC. When JC came, she took to Cha Cha straightaway. She loves him. Even now on Facetime, she would always point to Cha Cha and try to feed him with whatever she's eating. Can't wait for them to hang out together again. (5 months)
Little Cha Cha in his cool shades. Love this pic. So cool! Just like his daddy! (6 months)
I know, a little R rated. This was taken before his bath. All cuddly and cute. (7 months)
Cha Cha loving his yoghurt. Actually, he loves his food very much. So much to the point that sometimes I get to zealous feeding him that he throws up when he has way too much. (8 months)
This was just taken on Saturday afternoon when we went for a walk. Clearly he's a little disturbed by grass. Maybe he takes after me. I don't like grass. (9 months)Yes, so you've seen it. He sure has grown quite a bit, right?
