Daddy's Little Girl

Last night she said she has a song for daddy. I thought its 'the man who cant be moved' but when i asked her to sing it, the lyrics went "i miss you daddy... I love you daddy... Why do you have to go to Germany... I love you forever... Daddy..."

Then earlier, after our bedtime story, I told her to sleep already. She said she didnt want to close her eyes.

Because she's "gonna miss daddy".

Pastime

Since Gabbie was small, she's been exposed to a lot of books of different kinds- picture books, coloring books, story books, drawing and even musical and a few activity or work books. So she grew up "reading" and actually started reading when she just turned four.

Now its the same with Rafa. When she's not hungry, sleepy or wet, I usually find her sitting in corner flipping through the pages of her board books. Sometimes she reads magazines and her Ate's books. Sometimes I find them sitting side by side deeply engrossed with their own reading materials.

I will not be surprised if Rafa too starts to read at a very young age.

That is a habit that would be hard to break.

Look alikes :)

These are Gabbie's pictures taken in a studio a few weeks after she turned one. I intentionally kept this cute shirt that she was wearing (given to her on her birthday by her Ninang) for Rafa.

Yesterday, four years later, we brought Rafa to the same studio wearing the same shirt.

Then put their pictures side by side for us to spot the difference (except for the teeth and hair clip/head band).

Hehe.
