It was little jing jing’s 7
month old celebrations yesterday. I really wish I could keep him as a baby
forever. I wish babies remained this cute and perfect for a longer period of
time. He’ll be talking back to me and getting married before I know it. I’m
going to miss this precious and innocent season of their lives.
Another reason why I don’t want
him to grow up is the older he gets the more mobile he becomes therefore
exposing him to more dangerous and threats that is out there in the world. I know
we can’t hide our children and I want him to live his life to the fullest I just
fear for his safety especially when I’m not around. I worry about those who
would want to harm him and I hope he doesn’t make regrettable mistakes.
I know I can’t avoid all these
things but I hope to equip him to face these challenges in life. Equip him in
ways I don’t think I was equipped to do so. Yes my parents implemented a nurturing
and stable unbringing but there were so many unspoken conversations. Actually
we didn’t really talk about things when I was growing up so I met certain cross
roads or experiences with fear of the unknown
I plan to constantly talk to my
children. Talk to them so they aren’t afraid to talk to me about anything. I want
them to feel comfortable to discuss any topic, safe to share their options and open
to tell me their experience.
