I don't have my own kids (yet), but I do have nephews and a niece. I went to see them today. I haven't been feeling very well for pretty much the whole month. I've been going to and fro my doctor to find out what's wrong with me. While I feel much better already, the palpitations I have been having have not completely disappeared. But they are much more tolerable now. My doctor has also assured me that it isn't really serious.
When my niece saw me today, she ran to me, gave me a big, warm hug, and asked: "How are you tita? Are you better na? Does your heart still beat very fast?"
I was surprised and completely touched by the sweetness of my niece. She's 9 years old. She's grown up too fast. I still remember when she still a baby, I used to give her a bath and hold her very cautiously because I was scared that water might frighten her. When I'd make her sleep, she usually had to be carried or she had to sleep on you because that was the only way that she would sleep soundly. She's 9 now.
I am just so glad that she has grown up to be such a caring little girl.
So what made you happy today?
