A little boy who cares for me

A long time before Ody was born, my husband and I had a kind of agreement that we’d like our first child to be a boy. As time went by, Alhamdulillah, Allah SWT fulfilled our pray by giving us a cute little boy. And as he grows up, we have been amazed by every thing our little one do, he is now three and a half year and can do much more an adult can do or think.

One of my biggest gratefulness of having him is that he is not only become our little son, in which me and my husband give our care, protection, and love and at the same time he is also able to treat and give us the same thing. For example, a few months ago, when my husband left for a couple of weeks for a job outside Jakarta. As we live in Cimanggis, being lonesome away from friend and relatives sometimes become a matter and of course when my husband needed to do travel for his job it would left the two of us: me and Ody at home. But guess what? Having Ody right at my side never makes me feel lonesome or even a bit afraid at night being “alone”. He really can act as a good buddy for his mommy, caring and accompanying me during our time together.

We can do many games or puzzles, watch tv at night to kill our time, coloring picture and make some draws on his little drawing book, went to a mall or bookstore at noon, listen to music from the radio or tv, and share some stories before bedtime. Oh God, I could never imagine that having a little boy could really mean that much, and for a couple of times I would consider that instead of me taking care of him, it is Ody taking care of and accompanying me passing through my hard and lonesome times. Thank God for letting me feel such miracle in life, and please teach me to be a patient and better parents for our children.
