A few weeks ago, I experienced my first Father’s Day.
As I reflected on the joy of being a father, I realized that a huge part of that came from Wai Jia’s dedication as my wife and mother.
During the past weeks while Wai Jia was away at Hopkins, I had the privilege of taking care of our little one.
I was scared at the thought that I would be home alone with her. (Maybe she was just as scared of being home alone with Daddy, haha!)
What will she eat?
How will I know what she wants?
What does she like to play with?
Before starting school, Wai Jia would share with me her daily routines to help me transit. That’s when I realized how much she sacrifices every day to make sure our daily needs are met.
What amazes me is how much of a joy it is for her (and now me) to take care of our Baby.
Yes, parenting has its ups and downs. There are times when I wish I was doing my own thing.
But spending time with our baby and seeing her grow everyday is priceless.
Thanks to Wai Jia, I know what a great blessing it is to be a father.
