Bye Bye Baby


It has been almost 2 weeks since baby Isabella boarded the plane to embark on her new life in UK for the next few years. I was rather down the week before she left and the week after. The idea of my adorable baby niece growing up away from me was truly depressing. It did not seem fair that time was not on our side and the 3 precious months I was given before her departure was simply not enough. What I truly wanted was for time to stand still so I'd be able to continue holding her in my arms, taking in the heavenly scent of one so sweet, hoping to capture her warmth forever within.

As much as I'd like to believe that things will not change and she'll remember me as clearly as I am recalling her cuteness now, the harsh reality remains that she has left. She will be growing up afar from me and the familiarity she has been accustomed to ever since she was born. I can only hope beyond hope that the time and love I showered her with for the past few months will continue to linger and she won't forget me here. Until we meet again, I will be missing my baby doll dearly and loving her just as much.

GP!! Can you imagine her excitement when she finally sees again the Aunt whom her mum talks about and whose pictures she's seen and whom she's heard talking on the telephone!! She'll be thrilled!!! So try to look forward to that day, k! :):)

Huhuhu...so sad...hope you'll be by her side again soon.

GP, we know how u feel...we are equally sad too. But we believe that she will always remember her bautiful aunt from afar ok? There are always emails and phones for u to get connected to her.

Hope that she will grow up to become an intelligent beautiful girl when she comes back. And when she comes back. we can give her more and more chocolates and sweets again!!! =)

I'm sure she'll remember the aunt who showered her with love the past 3 months. And besides, you can always fly there for the holidays to visit right? Cheer up. Happy weekend to you.

Oh and she looks just adorable next to the bear :D

Nessa January 20, 2008 5:14 PM

Oh, I know how you feel. I held my niece for the first time when she was just 3 months old.

The second time I saw her she was 2 years old... then I met her last year , she was 5 years old. I couldn't even talk to her since she only spoke German!

I think I'll only get to see her again when she's 7 years old... sigh...

Trinity January 20, 2008 6:01 PM

oh dear.. oh dear... she is so cute and you have to say good bye to her... oh my...oh my...

You have showered her with your love so I am sure she will miss you too!

Odysseus January 20, 2008 9:48 PM

Before you know it, she will be back to you again. Or maybe, you will be in UK spending quality time with her.

FL Sam January 20, 2008 9:57 PM

Baby are so cute and adorable, I can understand that you surely miss her. You can see her on video cam. :)

Mariuca January 21, 2008 12:13 AM

Hi Nick! Doesn't she look as huggable as the teddy bear?! ;)

Of course can visit her, but must find $$ first la..so won't be so soon but thanks for ur kind words! :):):)

Mariuca January 21, 2008 12:15 AM

Nessa, that's exactly what I'm bracing myself for la, cause realistically speaking, I think I'll only see my niece if and when she comes back for holidays, dunno when that'll be! At least Isabella won be speaking German la though lol...

Mariuca January 21, 2008 12:16 AM

Thanks Trin! She is a cutie isn't she? I love this pic of her. :):):)

Mariuca January 21, 2008 12:17 AM

Leslie, I hope it's the latter, then can visit UK too lolz! ;)

Mariuca January 21, 2008 12:20 AM

Hola Uncle Sam! Yeah, am planning to hook up to a video cam, at least can see her then! Thanks Uncle Sam! :):):)

Aww Marzie ... Baby Isabella is so adorable!! I'm sure she's missing you every seconds. Even the big cuddly bear misses you too :(

Hope we'll get to see some video cam snapshots of her soon. :):)

Take care.

Marzie, ask Intan to use webcam then you can see baby LIVE more often. Then you wont miss her sooo much...

Mariuca January 21, 2008 1:37 PM

Hey Naz, thanks for stopping by! Baby Isabella does look adorable in this picture, which I love btw! Hope to figure out this web cam thingy soon, till then can only moan and groan abt missing her huh? ;)
