Malam Tadi Dalam Sejarah

Wah.. dari pagi tadi nak cerita kisah ni, tapi tak berkesempatan. POst kejap la sambil buat speech ni. Ngantuk lak layan speech petang2...

Something special happened last night. :) Hubby takde, gi detachment Manila since two nights ago. Biasanya, my little daughter mmg akan tidur on our bed, kat tengah2. Ntah kenapa, monday night, dia sendiri2 pergi naik atas katil dia (cot dia yg kitorgdah tukar pengahdangtepi tu dengan bed railing, so she can climb into and out of bed easily), selimutkan diri sendiri, kissed me goodnight and said night2 to me, and stayed in her bed. this was rather weird sebab sebelumni memang la kitorang pernah try suh dia tidur kat katil sendiri but to no avail, and we've stopped trying a couple of months ago. Sebab ingat biarla dulu, sampai dia dah stop breastfeeding, takpela, baru train dia tidur katil sendiri.

Alih-alih, last night pulak, lepas her daily dose of night time nursing (which is usually done lying down on the big bed), she got up of the big bed and went to her little bed, and got ready for sleep there. konfius lagi skali la aku ni. tapi aku biar je la. Yang the previous night tu, akhirnya dia naik balik ke katil aku sbb dgr anjing menayalak2 bising kat luar. Last night pulak, dia baring sambil main2 dengan doll dia, last2 dah pukul 11.30, she called out "Mummy!" and i went over, tepuk2 sampai dia tidur, and she slept through. Sampai dalam 4.30 baru dia nak her morning nursing fix, and brought her back to bed with me.

Hmmm... dah besar anak aku. Nak tidur sendiri. I'm back alone in my bed. Rasa macam pelik... biasanya ada si kecik kat sebelah yang within arm's reach je. Ni dia dah pergi tidur kat katil sendiri. Sigh!~ Mommy feels so alone in that big bed. Hmm.. tetiba rasa macam sebak pulak. Tu baru dia gi pindah katil, still inthe same room. Sok dia nak stop breastfeeding, nak pindah bilik, nak gi skolah asrama, nak dipinang orang.. camnela pulak akunye sebak kan.... Huhu..

Betuila apa Dr.Nora cakapkat aku haritu.. enjoy and savour each moment when your baby is still a baby. nakal sikit2 tu biasa la. Take it all in. nanti bila dia dah besar, you'll be missing the time when they're still babies..

*P/s: anak aku telah mula menggunakan perkataan NO dengan meluas. "Sarah would you like too speak on the phone/change diaper/eat/drink water/shower now...." "No." Sigh!~
