Surprise Party

I have started using the gifts I got from the baby shower. I used to think that picking gift is waste of time. The gift card should be the most practical way. In the baby shower, I also received a gift card with a long list of initials of contributors. I have used up the gift card, and also forgotten the initials. In comparison, I can remember every face whenever I see the gift under the baby crib. From now on, I decided that I will start to picking gift instead of buying gift card. 

But the warmest memory is the suprise party itself. Even though I knew it was a party for me 5 minutes before I went into the conference room ( It was too obvious that no one in the building anymore), I was filled up with happiness by seeing a full room of people. Thank you, MRS, JC and JY. 

Life is full of memories. Creating happy memories is to build a sweet life.

The most beautiful sound

Every mom has unique birth story about their baby boy or girl. I have been waiting to have my own story "forever". At least I thought it was forever. Every second seems like a hour. My doctor kept telling me that my baby will be too big to be natually born.  But I don't want to believe him. I couldn't count how many times I have preyed that "please let me in labor now, please let me give a natural birth to her". 

I was thrilled that I had contractions before the schedule induction date, and later I wanted to cry when I lied in operation room waiting for C-section. Until I heard the first baby cry. Well, I still wanted to cry, but the emotion was totally flipped. Suddenly I was relieved, and feeling proud. My husband was busy in taking pictures and showing me the pictures. I coundn't care anymore. 

I have heard the most beautiful sound in this world. 

Following sound is also beautiful, but not most beautiful, :)
