Dear Miki,
It has been so long since I last wrote a letter to you. It is something that I deeply regret and I hope I will be able to forgive my very own self. You see Miki, though these letter are addressed to you, it is myself that I see reading it back many-many years from now, as loving reminiscence of how much your Daddy and I are in love with you, our one and only son.
at Taman Warisan Putrajaya
A little while ago you made me cry, Miki. You climbed our display cabinet happily because well that’s what toddlers do. However, while you are at your conquest to Mount Cabinet you knocked your Daddy’s notebook, it fell down from where it was sitting and came bumping on the floor. Your Daddy raised his voice and you came to me running and bawling in tears.
My hugs and kisses stopped your wailing and snuffles but they didn’t wash away the look of gloom and remorse on your beautiful face. Daddy demanded you to apologize. You leaped from my embrace, throw your arms around Daddy’s neck, look at him in his eyes and said, “Sowweee!” for sorry.
That must be the sincerest apology that the world have witnessed. And you didn’t stop there. You showered Daddy with your soft baby kisses. On his left cheek, then right and left again and again and again and on his forehead too before you looked at him and said sowwee one more time.
And so I shed my tears.
I do not know what those tears were for. Could it be me watching the sweetest drama in the world starring two of my favorite boys?
Or is it the inescapable melancholy inside my heart that accompanies the adventure of watching you grow? You indeed grow very fast, my son. I am barely catching up.
Miki, 27 September 2009
Age 1year8 months
You started to understand apologies when you were about a year and six months old and almost all the times your ‘sowweee’ would make my heart melt with love. Now at one year and nine months you have mastered the cutest way of asking for forgiveness (sowwee), thanking people (thanchuu – thank you) and say you are welcome (welchom!). Every night before we sleep, you would kiss us on our faces, say goodnight (oonight) and “I you you!” for I love you. I am extremely smitten with this bedtime routine, baby! Owhh, but when you demand me to sing “Burung Kakak Tua” non stop for 20 minutes before you doze off, I am just beaten not smitten.
I am sure all other kids your age are doing the same thing but especially for you my son, I am telling the world that I am extremely proud. I hope and I want you to continue to be this person that although so tiny in size but has all the ability to have the adults wrapped around your finger. Not by screaming, kicking or throwing yourself on the floor but by continuing what you do now – charming people with your smiles and friendliness; your wit and humor; never forget to thank and appreciate people; be quick to admit of your wrongdoings and be quick to apologize. And when you do so, say it through your lips and feel it sincerely in your heart. It is a tough world out there my son, be kind and the world will be kind to you.
I love you and if there is any mosquito out there dares to lay one micro leg on your body, my son, I’ll burn that damned kelambu.
Mummy.
