Today, I played mommy for a few minutes.

Two postings on the same day.

I thought I'd better note this down before I forget how it felt.

Today I carried a less than a month old baby in my arms. Colleague's hubby asked if Auntie Miffy Rabbit wanted to try carrying her and I hesitated for a few seconds before she was handed over to me. I haven't carried any baby in such a long time (think the last time was when I carried this little boy my nanny looked after. I was just a kid then).

So she was in my arms and slept soundly. For a moment, I felt so blessed. A little girl in the arms of a 24 year old auntie miffy. LOL. Wish I had a picture taken of us. She opened her eyes a couple of times due to the attention she got and almost cried. My heart went thump, thump, thump as I carried her (partly because I was afraid she would cry and partly because I thought I would make her uncomfy). Everytime she seemed like she would cry, I behaved like a rocking chair and rocked her to sleep. The little sweetheart slept and soon, her parents brought her home. But the sweetness lingered. Little kiddos. hehehe.
