My Rainey Day

First off, pupils who are reading this, I hope you've done your bit of studying.
Secondly, I'm so glad that they've having their exams on Monday cos I can finally take a short break before the examination papers come in.
That's when I just feel like killing them and my blood pressure will shoot up tremendously.
But I shall just enjoy my weekend before that happens.

So today Raine took her dunno-number-what vaccination.
Poor girl has been taking a jab almost every month since she was born.
Not to mention the first few jabs that she took when she was still in the hospital.
And the needle pricks that she had to undergo to draw her blood to test her jaundice level when she was barely a few days old.

When the doctor asked me which jab was she taking.
I replied, 'I lost count'.
Sad but true.
Then when I enquired bout her flu jab, the doctor advised me not to let her take it cos she's still got lots of jabs ahead of her.
I decided not to let her take it.

But my poor baby is a strong girl.
She gave out a short cry and ended with a little whimper and continued her day.
The doctor checked on her well-being and everything is fine and dandy.
And having her being healthy is of my utmost concern.
Nothing else really matters.

When we reached home, we decided to let her try spoon-feeding again.
The last time I tried, it was unsuccessful cos she kept spitting out her food.
Today, I was determined to let her try again to let her get used to eating from a spoon.
So I prepared the brown rice powder that I bought and started feeding her.
Initially she was quite resistant but by and by she seemsed to be getting the hang of it and started opening up her mouth for more food.
It was a thrilling moment.
My baby girl's grown up!!

Nothing satisfies a parent more than seeing her baby grow up and reaching the next milestone of her development.

I really feel very contented with my current life.

I've everything that I want and everyone who is dear to me.
Hmm....maybe not everything cos I want lots and lots of money.
But that's besides the point.
Haha!

Seriously, I really feel contented.
And that is the greatest happiness.
