and we turned one

its 20 past ten on a wednesday night.... THE WIFE is putting junior to sleep with his night feed and i am just wating for junior to sleep so that i can get some ZZZzzzs as well... nowadays junior sleeps between THE WIFE and meself... mostly he would be resting his head on THE WIFEs body and kicking me in the face with his feet... its either we need a bigger bed or i need to start sleeping with a face shield... hmmm.....


its halloween and yup, its juniors birthday.... 365 days ago, junior came to be.... that means i have been a daddy for a whole year... a full year of dirty diapers,two in the morning milk feed (mostly THE WIFE does it), trips to the docs, the odd stares from strangers in the street after we told them that no, he is a boy not a girl ( yes, junior gets that a lot, they all say that he has beautiful eyes with long lashes... sounds like a heart-breaker in the making).... hours of fun...


we held a birthday party for junior at grandmas place, we invited some friends, grandma invited some friends... and i must say, grandmas friends add colours to the party, they were singing karaokes like its some free for all... actually it was a free for all... free food, free drinks, free ice creams, free karaokes... hmmm.... junior seems to enjoy the attention hes got, he seems to even enjoy the old songs they were singing.... some of the songs are even older than his old man... hmmm...

i guess at the end of the day, whats important is that everybody had fun... and as for junior, whats important is the gift people came bearing with... hes got money from red packets, a gold pandent from some of me good old friends... and yes hes gots presents... and you know the presents is good when they come in big boxes, even more so when they are taller than you... hmmmm... HAPPY BIRTHDAY son...
