Josiah will make your day!!

Mummy, I have a question...

Dearest Mummy,

Few nights ago, I was asking God to show me who He was and how much He loves me. God kept quiet for a while and He showed me a picture of you and me taken together. Then he said 'just see how much your mummy loves you and mutiply it by 10 times.' I have not learn maths yet so I asked God to tell me more. He laughed and said "I love you so much that I will give you anything that you ask." 'Wow" I told God: "I want to have my first toy car" then suddenly I was woken up by your voice..."It's milk milk time"...

Mummy, do you think God will give me the toy car? I have not finish my conversation with him yet...

I am backed!! Sorry Daddy was just too busy with me...

Dear Uncles and Aunties,

So sorry to keep everyone waiting for my latest post....I was just too busy having a great time with Daddy! As you can see from my expression I am learning to say 'hi' to all of you..Its just matter of time before I can give you a flying kiss...muak muak muak!!!

I have been such a good boy to daddy and mummy (that's what they say..) Never make parenting as difficult as described by all those books and TV show daddy and mummy are watching. Daddy and mummy seems to be addicted to my smell...they keep smelling me when they are back home...but I love it too...Daddy's 'bawu' smells great...heehee.

I am turning 6 months in 2 weeks time. Everything is going on really well except that I had a little flu last week but doctor told me it's ok once I take my medicines. So I never cry when I take the medicines..I know it's for my good. I love it when mummy praises me "good boy" after that.

I want to tell the world and all of you...I have a happy family..Daddy sing this song by Barney to me almost everyday and he can sing it for many many times (he is a great singer but I wonder if he should start learning another song soon..) BUT I never get bored listening to daddy.

Please let me know that you love me by writing to me. I will love to talk to you soon. Recently, I have been observing how you adults speak...my turn to speak is coming SOON!!..heehee..

Have a great week everyone!!!

Fatherhood

Grandfather, Father & Son

Dearest Josiah,

Wow...look at how much you have grown. I am so thankful that you are growing so healthily and giving us a wonderful time caring for you. Well Josiah, do not think that you are only 6 weeks old and you can't teach daddy and mummy any lesson in life. Daddy learnt so much from you over this period and more than that, you make me realised who God is and His love for us.

Do you know that there was a night you were crying and feeling uncomfortable, Daddy was so so exhausted and really had no energy to carry you, I picked you up gently and placed you on my chest. Immediately, as you heard my heartbeat and felt my warm breath, you quieten down and fell into a peaceful sleep. Daddy was so moved at that moment.

I don't think I am a perfect dad, but I know no matter how tired or busy I can be, when you cry out for me, my immediate response is YOU! I think that is how God is to us. Very often, just like you, as we cry out our heart, and think who will come to our help; immediately, God responses. Fatherhood is His nature and His nature is fatherhood. How often do we realise that the moment we "cry out" to Him, we are actually already in His arms, leaning on His chest, His heartbeat comforts us, His breathe tells us He is with us.

Daddy brought you out for the very 1st time 2 week ago. As I carry you in my arms, I was so proud to show you to all the uncles and aunties. "SEE MY SON!!" That very moment, a strong thought struck my mind...once again, we serve a God that loves to parade us. WE ARE HIS PRECIOUS CHILDREN!! What an awesome encouragement that can be!!

Think about this, why can't we call God "Uncle", "Sir" "Mister" and etc. The reason lies in a relationship no other word can replace and that is Abba Father.

Josiah, if people ask me what is the greatest calling a man can possess, I will undeniably say it is Fatherhood

Josiah, Daddy & Mummy love you.

Celebrating My Full Month
