Maternal Notion



The notion of being a mom came across my mind one day. The thought of rearing a daughter with intellect, beauty and virtue seem too good to be true. However, the satisfying dose of retail therapy, the constant eating-outs, the undisturbed late lie-ins, and the frequent romantic breaks, drove me away from having a little one for the moment.
Until recently, a friend of mine entrusted her cute little princess to stay with us for a day. I was filled with so much joy that I find myself shopping for baby clothes and stuffs.
The day she was with us was fun-filled. She's less than a year old and already, she has a mind of a brat---sweet, that is. She ate a lot of strawberries and drank milk like there's no tomorrow. There was a blast of kiddie channels in the living room where, normally, only BBC resides. Both our bedroom and living room were a mess with her always agitated state. By mid-afternoon, we were already exhausted. I wished to God that she will at least have a kip even for a few minutes but she didn't. Instead, she had an expected-but-hope-you-can-get-away-with-it-poo that all hell break loose! Jobert had proclaimed himself allergic to "nappies-with-poo-in-it" all of a sudden so I have no choice, nice.
The culmination of the day was a much deserved bubblebath to which she mostly enjoyed. I drizzled a bottleful of burt's bees baby bubble and had some of our little blue whales swam around her and gave her a tiny tickle. She was a handful I must say!
But still, that didn't put me off from breeding a beautiful one, one day. She of course, will inherit her dad's principles and intellect and her mom's charm and values.
We have already created a name for her---one that resembles the name of fairies and goddesses but until our GCS becomes perfect and have made a wild decision to "create" her, her name will remain a guarded secret for the time being ;)
