Papa and Mama are so busy!

Dearest Baby Girl,

This is such a terrible period of time for Papa and Mama, Little One. We are both so busy with our work! Mama has several assignments and presentations to rush through and she has a big collection of readings to catch up on once these are done. Papa also has one big assignment for his studies and lots of reports and such to prepare for work, besides marking students’ work as well. We are trying to rush through all these but still produce the best work that we can as we believe that as Christians, we are working as unto the Lord. "...Whatever may be your task, work at it heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that it is from the Lord that you will receive the inheritance which is your reward. You are actually serving the Lord Christ …” Col 3:23-24

We are taking turns to take care of you because of this, Little Girl. So, if you only see one of us there at a time, it’s because we need to do these things as well. But, sometimes, it’s impossible for us to stay away from you. You are so cute! Even though we have all this work waiting for us, we will somehow still end up being with you together so that we can maximise the amount of time we can spend with you. And thus, our sleep suffers. :D You are the only one in the family who has such long hours of sleep! :D Thank God for that!

Even though we are so tired from trying to work only after you’ve gone to sleep, we will not exchange a single minute of this for anything in the world, Little One. Just being with you fills us with such great joy. Your smiles are the most precious in the world to us right now.

We love you, Skyler.

Mama and Papa
