8 Yrs Old

Chloe will be 8 yrs old in a month time – mannn! time really flies – and I have to keep reminding myself to enjoy her as much as I can before she becomes and adult and leave me – to have her own life. I’m busy preparing not only for Chloe’s birthday but for Christmas as well – and looking back at the last 7 years, I’ve learned so much from bringing Chloe up. One thing for sure – is the realization of what my own mother must have gone thru’ while bringing me and my siblings up on her own. I learned not to be too critical of her and I learned to love Chloe a lot more – and because of my own father’s non-participation in our life – I made sure that PB plays a very important role in Chloe’s life. As I did not have grandparents to dote on me – I hope that Chloe’s paternal grandparents would – unfortunately, they spend so little time with her – so much so – I’m afraid when she grows up – she might not be closed to her grandparents. Chloe is a happy and sensitive kid – she is doing well in school and most importantly is healthy. I pray for all good things for her – and want her to be a good person and many, many more years of watching her grow.
