Day 9 A Lesson on Love (Apeldoorn home)


14 November 2012


Sh*t happened today. And I mean sh*t. I don't really want to give you the details but it was a little messy. Ok--I think "messy" kinda gave it away. When that happened, I realized, this babysitting is no easy thing. Not. at. all. What, with all the sh*t! Here's just a few things that both irk and melt me about this lil man:

  • He sneezes with saliva flying around, and then smiles.
  • Almost tears apart the book I'm reading, which is not even mine.
  • Scratches my cheek and neck when he makes gigil.
  • Reaches out for my collarbone when he's sleeping as if checking if I'm still carrying him (smart kid).
  • When he, just out of nowhere, brushes his mouth on my feet, like I'm food.

The cosmic part is, however yucky, smelly, or irritating my nephew gets, I still adore him. I guess that's how our parents look at us. And how God looks at all of us. Like innocent lil kids, however shitty we could often be. #
