The Big Two!!

Exactly 12 hours from now, my baby will turn 2!!
Welcome Terrific Two!!

Two years ago, at this hour - I wondered whether the funny feeling was a real contraction.
It surely was!

Was in labour for 13 hours, and on July 23rd 2010.. Voila! There she was!

I didn't have a "teary-touchy" moment when I held her for the very first time.
I guess I was just happy that the labour has finally stopped and that she's perfect.

My first "OMG! I'm a mom!" moment happened that night.
Andi was sleeping and Onya cried incessantly.
Tried everything I could to calm her down.
I failed.
.... Until I let her sleep on my chest and I sang "centre of it all" by Hillsong United UK.
She calmed down immediately and that was the first time I realize that I'm a mother and felt an unending stream of love flowing out from me to her. Almost literally.

A blink of an eye, and she's turning two in less than 12 hours!!!

A blessing indeed.

She changes my life.
In a very great way.

Went to mall today..
She slept on my shoulder.
I had tears in my eyes, holding her in my arms is simply undescribable.
How God blesses me with this cutie...
The privilege is mine, really.

Ah. Terimakasih Tuhan.
I pray that Your hands will be upon Onya.
Let Your grace and favour be upon her.
Jaga hidupnya... Now and forevermore.

Bucket List

Yep. Been hearing a lot about people dropped dead suddenly. Mulai dari si Adjie Masaid, babenya si Joshua, then just now Emma's friend juga Dadaism died of heart attack. She was 29 years old, just got ,arrayed last October. Life is so fragile. That's why I really hate Andi each time I have to remind him over and over again about healthy lifestyle. Anyway, decided to make a bucket list for myself. 1. Back to NZ 2. Sky dive 3. Vacation to Russia 4. Having more than enough funds for Onya to pursue her degree in England, Oxford University preferably :) 5. Ngeliat Andi punya bodi keren 6. Buying a house for my parents 7. Karet tengsin dijual Hmmm....... Belon kepikiran yg lawn. Nanti di update lg deh

Lavender and Butterfly

My very first (and probably my last) tattoo. Why lavender ?  Because I love the smell.  I love the colour.  Lavender is pretty much the only plant that stays alive in my garden. It thrives in pretty much any weather with very little care. It lives with a big bunch of other lavenders but it can also lives on its own little bundle. It shows strength, and grace. Butterfly means beauty. Not just superficial beauty... but beauty after a storm. Beauty that was earned.  Like, after it went through struggles from a cocoon. Plus, you see butterfly (normally) in a great weather. Adds the beauty to the surroundings, like a balance in the universe.  Psalm 23:6 , is what I really resonate in my life.  That no matter what, no matter where, no matter how many bad decisions I’ve made.... God’s goodness and mercy is always with me. That I’m okay. That the God who made the universe loves me still.  That regardless how fucked up I am, His goodness and mercy is always wi...

A Wife's Heart

Postingan kali ini buat Andi. Feel so blessed beyond words punya suami kaya beliau. Walo banyak rese n nyebelinnya juga. He works really hard. I mean REALLY hard. I know I've complained about him being too busy, but lately he changed. Yes, dia masih sibuk banget di kantor. Yes, dia masih suka 'nyetrap' gw di mobil suru tunggu. Tapi I know that family is his top priority. The house is almost done. Andi spent hours last Sat and Sun buat bebersih rumah. Gw ga boleh ikut. "masih debuan banget" - gitu katanya. He knows Im allergic to dust and frankly, what can a pregnant woman possibly do? Ga mungkin juga kan gw ngangkat2 furniture. Naek tangga aja suka engap. Dapet laporan dari Otoy, Andi ngangkat2 barang ampe mukanya merah, ampe kringetan ngeces2... Gw tau dia pasti cape banget. Tapi begitu pulang he brought nothing but his big, warm smile. "Udah. Nanti gw sekali lagi kesana, finalize bersih2 - then you can come. Tuh gw beliin kelapa, mau diminum sekarang ga?...
