Dearest Chase,
At this time, I put your blanket back as you are sleeping soundly and swerving at 360 in our bed. Totoo pala talaga yung sabi nila na"the days are long but the years are short." You are just a month shy on being ONE!I just spent my days-off if not playing with you,I'm scrolling over pinterest for your birthday photo shoot and the perfect birthday cake!Its one of my simple pleasures..freezing time by snapping pictures of you!! And our favorite we-time is to look over your baby pictures on dadude's phone..and feel amazed on how our helpless and hairless baby turned out to be wildly walking around the house. This past month was special but quite a blur. Pag gising namin,naglalakad ka na!! Kidding aside, payatot ka man sa paningin ng iba,nonetheless you are strong and clever and a fast learner too!You still fall down but you always get back up again!That makes me a proud mama!
You are finally eating well.Right now,you love butternut squash, kamote and your Mommy Dei's lugaw which I tried to copy!Sabi ng Mama Bing mo,magaling na daw ba ako magluto ngayon?I am a trying hard copy cat on all the baby food recipes just for you! In spite of giving me mini heart attacks every time you choke,you make me a better person and a better cook!
You sleep well on nights already.I wish I can sleep with you every night but Mama needs to be a night labrat!Nevertheless,I always make the most of it whenever I'm home!I love it when you give me stare of wonder as we pray before you sleep and put your hands together as we say Amen.I love to say that you are a bookworm too who loves story time but you also love to tear the pages down when you got bored.Just like your dad,you are fond on kalikot-ing things(is there an english term on this,teach me when you grow up!haha)You always have time to go under the computer chair and roll its wheels or topple down your red car and play with the wheels!
You love to laugh.Your favorite this time around is coming to my rescue while running and giggling towards me as daddy tried to chase after you!Its priceless!And of course, you love to be superman..blame it to Tita Weng!From there on ,you love to be carried high,swing and fly like superman!So yes,I dressed you up as SUPERMAN as you turned 11 months old.My everly-smiley-wild child,the joy you give us,just like you,grows everyday!
I love you (quite literally) to-the-moon-and back!
Lots of pagmamahal,
Mama
