Why you grow up so fast?

That post title, I've turned into a hashtag #whyyougrowupsofast on IG and I see other people are using it too. As much as I pening sometimes dengan the hectic life I have to go through with 2 kids (beza setahun empat bulan je okay!) constantly calling for 'Mama! Mama' every 5 minutes, but I love them with every beat of my heart, and to see them grow up so fast sometimes is just too much for me to handle. So jadi emo lah apa lagi.

Today, especially, since Aiman put up an ad on mudah.my nak sell Amru's stroller (or buggy/pushchair same thing, right?) *huwaaaaa!!!! cry again!*. Actually he outgrew the stroller years ago but we had it kept safely at the bilik bibik (which turned into a store after I got rid of the bibik. I sound so evil). And if that's what you're thinking then no I'm not a hoarder :P It's just all the 'first' things that I keep. Like Amru's first blanket, Wafa's first snow suit, my first rattle..oops, err maybe I hoard a little.

Well, back to the stroller story, I remember 5 years ago when I was pregnant with Amru. We were still in the UK back then. When I first found out I was pregnant, the whole baby stuff hunting thingi started. Couldn't help it. It turned into a major obsession. Biasalah, first baby.
So throughout my pregnancy, I was always on the bed, under the cosy fluffy duvet in front of my laptop writing my PhD thesis browsing through baby websites searching for things that I, eh silap, my baby needs. So when I came across this dream stroller I immediately knew my baby needed it. (I tried to pay for it by credit card, tiga kali kot payment declined but tried and tried, never giving up, until it finally went through. That's how much my baby needed it! You reading this, Amru??!).

Hey, focus, please, just focus abit here. This isn't a post about the stroller but about how emotional I got when just this afternoon an interested buyer suddenly texted Aiman to buy the stroller. *tears welling*. And yeah, its gone now. Couldn't bear to see that guy take it away so I just stayed indoors.
I mean, yes, my kids still need other things (like Ultraman figurines and Play Doh and Great Animal Kaiser cards and stuff. But I doubt I would feel any emotions when they outgrow those. More like yay, now my house is clean).

Well, life has to go on.

Amru and Wafa, you will always be Mama's babies. No matter what your age.

That's why I call both of you 'B' most of the time. (It's so much better than tersalah panggil Amru jadi Wafa and the other way around. Oops!)


This picture was taken around 2 years ago. Saja pusing2 ronda kawasan rumah in the stroller. Kecik lagi #AmruWafa masa ni *emo lagi*. Sorry hubs for the cropped head. Focus is on your kain pelikat, so takpe lah kan?
