my poor little sunshine is sick.
It pains my heart so to see her cry because of her discomfort... to see her usual active self so listless and tired because all her energy is spent fighting the virus.....
The last 4 days have been terribly exhausting.......
It doesn't help that my parents aren't exactly helpful in helping to take care of her.... they keep thinking it's coz of the jab that she's getting a fever.... but it's more than that.... she has a viral infection that is causing the fever to be so high....
It sucks for us adults to have high fever that last for more than 2 days... what more a poor little 6 month old baby?
We haven't had a proper night's sleep because she keeps waking up due to her discomfort.... and half the time she's screaming coz she needs attention.....
i just wish others could be more considerate towards her right now.... i really want her to get better......
she's been trying so hard to be brave and to be her happy jolly old self... but it's hard for her to even finish a normal feed right now... not even her favourite solid foods make a difference to her anymore...
just wish we could stay home to watch her till she gets better.... but.. sigh.... i really don't know how..........
get well soon my honeybun.....

i can't help but w0nder why Baby Faith's blog is so much more updated than my own??!! =) is her life more interesting than mine even though she spends most of it doing nothing but sleep, eat, play?? =Di guess i'm just more eager to document her life and what happens to her...not only for those who dont' get to see her all the time, but also for Faith's own reading pleasure when she grows up. I wonder what she'll think when i show her this blog when she's older.... =)will she think her mum's insane to spend all this time doing such rubbish? haha.. i really have no idea......am i doing all these for her because she's the first and only one right now? Will my future kids have the same things as she does? her own personal book that documented her journey from the time of conception up till now, her own personal blog.... and soon, her own personal studio album?? I did discuss this with Darling before... and we do hope my interest in doing such things for our kid(s) won't fade... especially if and when we do get another one!I've quite a fair bit of things to accomplish before this week is over..... an assignment to complete, evaluation for my practicum file... a write-up for the Senior Curia e-mag....Yet... such mundane things are not on my priority to complete... i'm relishing the time i have at home... to just relax... to just have time for ME and ME alone.... whenever Faith takes her nap, i just want to chill, nap, surf the net........ I guess if my parents were at home a little more during this last 2 days, i'd be better able to complete my work....I just love being at home.... just yesterday, i've already accomplished 2 loads of laundry.... if my mum didn't iron the clothes, i would have completed it too... and now, i'm looking to make tiramisu for Darling because he feels like eating it.... plus, i've never done it at home before, and also coz it's his birthday next Saturday!What can we do to celebrate it on such a tight budget? I really have no idea... but i do want to make it special for him....ah well... with that on my mind as well, it's no wonder why i can't settle down to get my work done!!!!Took Faith on her very first bus ride today. haha. She seemed to enjoy it loads.... smiled at every single person we met!!! such a funny girl she is...... she really is an extreme baby. She's either VERY happy, or extremely annoyed... sigh.... just like me, she demands to do things her own way, and is terribly impatient....had a great time at the Zoo with her on Saturday, and she was extremely well-behaved. we're super proud of her.... =)come term 4, i hope i still have time to do such things with her....... will be taking Primary 1.. .the level I dread most. Not that i can't connect with them or bring myself down to their level. It's just that P1s take so much of your energy. You have to be super animated to teach them, so that they stay interested in your lesson. No matter how you feel, you have to be SUPER DUPER happy whenever you teach them... because they would otherwise sense it......it doesn't help that i'll be teaching ART!!!! my goodness... i can't draw to save my life! sheesh....i guess if I didn't have a baby at home, i won't find it such a daunting task....... for Faith requires that same amount of energy from me whenever I'm home... maybe even more.....so, i've to be on an 'adrenaline Red-Bull' kinda energy rush for 24 hrs each day!!!it's gonna be a mentally and physically tiring 3 months.... but...... I will do my very best to cope.... as always... =) after all, the Lord has his plans......
