AMITHI JAEVIN
HI GUYS!! I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE TO YOU ONE OF GOD'S GREATEST BLESSINGS TO OUR FAMILY, MY FIRST NIECE, AMITHI JAEVIN!! God, I never thought I would be so in love with her. Just thinking of her right now makes me want to get off my bed and run to her to the hospital where they're staying.
My sister-in-law, Ate Maeh, gave birth to our little angel just yesterday, March 16, 2016. To be very honest, I wasn't that super kaduper excited before. Saktong excited lang. I think I'm more excited for my descipler's baby BEFORE, maybe because I often see her more than Ate Maeh and it just couldn't sink in to myself that I'll be a Tita soon. But I pray for Ate Maeh's pregnancy always. My brother even asked for a month vacation to witness this very precious moments in their family. Thank God his boss approved his month leave 'coz he always visits Manila for days.
Dawn of March 16, I was still in front of my laptop writing my random brain farts on my blog. I couldn't sleep that morning because of blended emotions and blessings God poured me the night after that. So I ended waking up late. My niece is already breathing the same air I breath. My mom wake me up to prepare to go to the hospital. My brother sent us pictures from the operation on family's messenger. I was so excited to open it right after I saw the chatroom name "Baby Morias". My tears were halfway spilling my eyes but I manage to stop it the moment I opened it. I can't explain the feelings. My sisters were congratulating my brother asking details and whatever and I was there, seen-zoning them. I'm the most weirdest among my siblings, I don't usually show them how I feel nor feel excited about something so they just let me be.
We arrived at the hospital at three in the afternoon and saw my brother outside the room sitting. Guess what's he's doing: Umaatack siya sa COC!haha. We entered the room and and no one there. My brother said Ate Maeh was still in the recovery room and he excitedly invited us to go to down stairs to check out Amithi. So we rushed to the nursery station at the third floor and ask for Baby Morias. Few moments after the nurse opened the curtain window and that's the first time I saw our little angel. We were all smiling and my Mom was soo excited and the nurse went out of the room so we could touch Amithi. My brother wasn't allowed to kiss her yet because he has a sinus that time (consequence of not listening to your wife and mom to drink your vitamins and meds). After my brother told the nurse some instructions, we went back to their room.
Not long after when Ate Maeh was moved from the recovery room. The moment I saw her, I got really really amazed. She manage to overcome everything she's been through during her pregnancy. I think I realized now the saying that you'll love your wife more after she gave birth to your child. Kung ako nga sobrang amazed ko kay Ate after seeing her like that, Kuya ko pa kaya? And this made me feel excited on my future with my GB.haha! She was a bit dizzy from the operation that time but she keeps on talking nonstop! She said she wanted to sit down already and do something. She's a Beyonce's power, I know!
As we wait for Amithi to moved to our room, Daddy and I went to pick up my pabebe sister at SM Molino. Ugh, I really wanted to witness everything but I have to go. While paying for the dinner we bought, Ate Tina message me on Viber that she visited Amithi at our room with Cerise. They planned to surprise me but they're the one's who were surprised because I wasn't there.haha! Isn't my discipler and disciplee (may word bang ganun? I don't want to call Cerise my disciple tho ambigat ng title) the sweetest!?
I also had a GLC class that night but that I didn't managed to attend. But if time would allow me, I would probably attend my second to the last class. Sayang tuition! Charot. But no regrets! Amithi is worth more than any of my time.
When we got back, Amithi was already in the room and so as Ate Maeh's family. She already had a bath which was the one I wanted to witness. We had a little picture taking with her one by one but me, I didn't have one. When it was my turn to hold Amithi, I told my brother I don't want to because I can't hold a baby. The truth is, I don't want to have a picture taken because I was so ugly that day. Up until now I haven't held her in my arms. Loser, I know!
Time went fast and Ate Maeh's parents went off. We also had a video call with my sister in Jeddah. She was soo excited she's soo noisy. She was on her duty that night and she works on the NICU station and she's showing us the babies she's taking care of. Namimili siya ng abdul na ipapare kay Amithi. Everything was perfect that moment because of Amithy. We left the hospital at around 10:30 in the evening so Ate Maeh could rest then we went back the next day.
I've got a lot of things to thank God for! Never thought my first niece could bring soo much joy in my heart right now! I feel like she's forever fragile I always want to protect her. Her cry sounds a mozart symphony to my ears. It breaks my heart but it also sends butterflies to me. I can't wait to spoil her! Can't wait to get piss because she's uncontrollable. I can't wait to see her on sunday school singing children songs for Jesus. I just can't wait to do everything with her!
It also brought me to some realizations, positive and negative. Positive in a way that it excites me to meet my GB and when it is God's time, we'll have our own Amethi. I will make him love me more because of our child. And negative because I feel sorry for the unborn children. It's so upsetting that they had an irresponsible parents who doesn't have the balls (this also goes for women) to give life to them. I actually don't give a shit before when I heard news like this. But my niece made me realize that life is so precious, even when they're still in their mother's womb. For me, these people are the worst! Worst than all of my country's corrupt official! They don't deserve to have a baby after what they did to their child. I hope this kind of people realize how precious this babies God's gift to us. I pray people would embrace life!
And it also breaks my heart that my brother wouldn't be able to see her for the next few months. I know leaving this time would be the hardest part for him. I've seen my brother grow. He's the worst as we grew together, I must say. I can't even remember a happy moments of our childhood together because I was soo damn scared of him. He's super sungit I can't even look at him in the eye when I was a kid. And I credit God and Ate Maeh for what he is now. Still not used to it but he keeps on encouraging and sharing me things about his faith. And I praise God that I'm not the only one devoted to God in the family. I'm soo proud of my brother even before! He's a smart ass and an atleeth as well during his younger years. He's not the nerd type.He socialize well with people. I know you won't be that long that you'll be away with your family. It also makes me sad that you might plan to stay together in Malaysia as a family. That means Amithi will be away from us too (Just typing this makes my eyes drench in tears. Seriously). But if it's for your family's sake and God's will, anong magagawa ng emotion ko?haha!
Lord, I dedicate to you my niece.
Please take good care of her always.
I sincerely praise you for the life of Amithi.
She's so precious I know You will always look after her.
Thank you for creating her according to Your likeness.
And from that, You have created a very wonderful baby.
Lord, use me as your instrument of abundant blessing to her.
I pray that you may guide me to be a good Tita to her.
That I may teach her to worship you.
May she grow up to be a person after your own heart.
Lord, You know how much my love for her already.
And I thank You for this joyful feeling You have showerd to our family.
I can't thank you enough, Lord.
Use this child for Your glory.
In Jesus mighty name I pray,
AMEN.
IN ALL THINGS,
GOD SHOULD ALWAYS BE GLORIFIED!
