Dear Daddy,
Before I came into this world, it was just you and Mommy - living life to the fullest!
Taking beach strolls and being silly
Exploring sites
And hikes
Sharing cups of coffee even if you're not coffee drinkers because... why not?
Before I came into existence, I know I was a mere desire. Not because it was a fad or a requirement to have a child, but probably because there is an overwhelming amount of love that you and mommy just have to give to a little peanut like me.
Here's a little secret: I asked God, "if you will send me to earth, please let me have a good father. One whom I could look up to, one who's not perfect (for nobody is), but one who will make his love as the fuel to make all ends meet, one who will nurture me to the best of his abilities, and even if he's not capable of doing everything, may he be willing to strive to just try! After all, I'm just a little helpless peanut. It won't hurt if you'll make my every inch and crevice look like him."
God answered me this way
I always hear you say it's a miracle. Well, I think that I'm not a miracle but just a little peanut. Hehehe! But if you must insist, then let's call me a miracle.
Maybe the entirety is a miracle indeed because even from inside Mommy's tummy, I already felt a lot of positive vibes! I would hear your voice and more than just the tangible sounds, I felt your love coming through whatever it is that separated us. Thank you!
Fast forward to the 19th of July, I wasn't ready but come out to the world I must, with a wail as thunderous as a gong! Should I really exaggerate? Hahaha!
For trying to keep it together and smile despite sleepless days and nights
