I was playing Temple Run and noticed my little girl getting something from my desk. I asked her what she was doing and she said she was making a happy face. I didn't know what she meant so I just carried on with my iPhone addiction. Couple of minutes passed by and the little girl left the room. I was still busy checking out stuff in my phone. I realized I had to bring out the chicken from the fridge and so I got up and went outside the room. When I came back this was what I saw just at the corner of my bed...
So this was what my daughter was doing. I felt my heart break because i was too caught up with my "me time" that I didn't pay much attention to what she was doing. And she did it for me. A Happy Face.
I feel like such a bad mother right now. Guilt, anger (at myself), pain. I can't believe I was not able to appreciate earlier her creativity.
And I must try harder in paying more attention to her.
My new year's resolution is "Less is More" and that I should focus on what truly matters. Eanna is what truly matters to me.
