Adee's Look-alike Meter

Fifty - Fifty

Last Sunday, a very very good friend sent me a Yahoo Message. We haven't really been in touch too much lately. She and her husband have moved to Australia after their wedding.

Anyway, the conversation began on she trying to tell me that my daughter's look is so evenly split between mine and the father's. I was like almost off my chair laughing. I could not really believe it. I am still convinced that Adee takes her looks from the other side of the fence.

See, the moment I laid my eyes on her, I am resigned to the fact that my genes aren't that superior-- physically that is. Her nose, her neck, her teeth, her foot, almost everything! I think the only thing she got from me is my brain and the most private part! lol!

Having given an outsider's view that Adee has 50-50 looks! I am happy. Weee!

Usap mommy

Two words that rings music to my ears. "usap mommy" literally translates to "talk (to) mommy". Getting to talk to them during weekends makes the stay here in dubai bearable. It makes me see that the stay here has a point. It has a purpose. Although a lot has been running through my mind about being too far away from my family, it doesn't change the fact that the need to stay here and finish what has been agreed at least is a must. For now i can sleep well knowing that andy knows that her mom is just here working for her and our future.

The reason why I am here.
Pretty isn't she?

Testing my Spidey ability

Can you do this?


Missing Andee is my favorite pastime. Whenever weekend comes (Friday and Saturday) here in the Middle East I patiently and eagerly await them go online. Not yet having my own laptop at this time makes it a tad difficult. I have to either wait in line for those who have and try to borrow it if they are done with their own "chat" time.

Whenever I can, I ask pictures of her so as not to get lost in her growth.
I wonder what she can do again next month. Oh, by the way, she can coherently talk now!

How do i begin this task?

I promised to revise this blog. Revise in the sense that most of the entries here will be about my little girl and myself. So where do i begin? Hmmm... Ok. Let me start from the very beginning... Andrea's beginning. Or how Andrea came to being.

Andrea's father and I were a couple for more or less 7 years. Literally, more or less. The story will be told to Andy personally and not here.

We met inside the university. I was on my third year and he was ahead. But he had a subject he had to re-enroll, he was behind for some subjects I guess, he and I were classmates.

The typical courting happened. We didn't say we were a couple well, we were not yet even though we did went out a lot. A lot were getting suspicious. We held our ground. We weren't until on 2nd of January 2001 I said yes and then it all began.

I would not say that he is a perfect gentleman. But the initial months were bliss for me. Maybe it is like that for so many couples. He knows how to please women, mind you.

I was introduced to his father, as his mom was already in Canada (working).

This will be a work in progress. I promise to recall almost all so that when Andrea is older she will understand that she isn't just an accident.

Organize

I am hoping (and praying) to get myself my own computing unit while abroad. Part of the (grand) plan is to organize all the blogs that I have to make it into something more compact. I am still keeping this for my daughter primarily.

This will be dedicated to her. So i might import some of the blogs I have to be here. Or whatever.

This will be the thing that she will read when she grows up and understand her beginnings... or so I think.

I am too sleepy now... Must sleep since I need to wake up early tomorrow for the weekend talk with the baby... She's sick by the way. Mama said that they went to see her pediatrician. I hope she gets better tomorrow.

I miss her so.
