I've been up all night (coz I've slept the whole day) watching over my nephew JP sleep. I've been doing this since he got here. His parents are in Singapore working so me and my parents are taking care of him now. I never thought that being an uncle would be hard. I just thought that I can just play and cuddle with the kid and let his parents do the dirty work. That clearly isn't the case.
I'm not complaining really, for me, I see it as a blessing. I lost 7 kg in three weeks out of carrying him around, watching over him, giving him baths and being on the 'night shift". My mom watches over him when I'm off to Neverland. Inspite of the hardships I go through, this kid keeps me sane. His smiles, chuckles and antics seem to wash my worries away. he makes me see the important things in life over and over again. he makes me value family even more now. He even makes me hurry home from work just to make sure he and mom are okay.
It may sound absurd but I changed a lot since he came in to our home. I feel like I'm more mature and I feel the need for me to be better all the time so he can see me as a good role model. there was the time that we took him to the pediatrician to get vaccinated and I watched in horror as the doctor stuck the syringe in for the vaccine. Man, I almost fainted! Lucky I got my poker face on. hahahahahahaha. well, I guess that's all for now. Hopefully, as tradition suggests, kids bring luck. I do hope I get paid from working in a government agency. It's been 3 months and we haven't got paid yet. I got to buy some milk, diapers, vitamins for the baby. I was also planning on having myself inked for life.
