bundle of joy

my niece has arrived!

i'm now officially an aunt, and it is a huge responsibility to undertake for the rest of my life. i cannot even start to imagine how this will change my life. maybe a little, maybe a lot. maybe not at all.

i hope that i will be as supportive and doting to her as my own aunt had been to me when i was growing up. such warm memories. for years, she would get me ice cream at swenson's and books from mph bookstore after exams every year. it was always such a treat in those days.

and now, it's my turn.

welcome to the world, little one. i hope that you will grow up to be a compassionate, intelligent and charming woman, and have a life filled with laughter and love. definitely, it will be filled with love from your aunt.
