Innocence Of A Child

Published by eGal | Filed under Day To Day

It’s been a long time since I blogged. Been busy with work and my personal projects (see blogroll on the right). Oh well, I am not going to have my fans disappointed. To kickstart 2008…

I was at my brother’s place on Saturday and having not seen my 18 months old niece for a month, she sure has grown taller and is now sporting a new doll bob hairstyle for the Chinese New Year. Alegria was exceptionally affectionate that day, she even kissed me real hard…

Her mum and I were sitting on the same sofa and we were trying to teach her some simple English so this is how the conversation goes….

Sis-in-law: “Alegria, where is baby?” (my sis-in-law is having my 2nd niece in a month time)

Alegria: Happily pat on the big stomach and said in unclear pronounciation “Ba…bi…”

Shortly after, Alegria happily came over to me and hugged me and kissed me real hard and…happily patted my big fat paunch and said in unclear pronounciation “Ba…bi…”

That was the best laugh for everyone that Sunday! I will never forget the kiss as I would with my “paunch-incident”.
