And he's 1

my little baby turned 1 on Tuesday. No longer a baby but a toddler. It's amazing how 1 year just flew past. The past year had truely been amazing for us. Jarrett brings with him so much joy and love into our lives. Parenthood has taught us many things. The most important for me - patience and I finally understand the unconditioned love parents have for their children. No matter what he does, we still love him, thou there are times I want to pull out all my hair in frustrations.
We clean his butt when he poo, wiped up his puke and still plant lots of kisses all over his face before we send him to bed. Even if he drives me mad with his fussiness at times, I'll forget all about it once he plants a kiss on my lips, or give me one of his "cannot see eyes" grins.

At times, I feel overwhelmed with the love I have for this little guy. It's like I just want to eat him up so he'll stay inside me..lol..for months I didn't dare to voice this out, thinking I'll sound like a manic..until one evening, Wx asked me if I have such thoughts, cos he feels the same too! Waahahaha...

We didn't hold a big party for him, just a small one for both side of the families. We wanted to surround him with people who loves him best and I'm glad we did. It wasn't too fussy and the little guy had fun showing off his new toys and his first few steps. Pics coming soon..
