Up Late

My lil Mummu is all of 16 now....sweet sweet sweet 16...just months...I don't know how am I gonna react when those months turn into YEARS...ahhhhhhmmmmmmmmm???well we will have to just wait and watch...and thats not exactly why I m sitting up late...

Mummu has started going to Day care, and as is the case with all the Nurseries/Day cares, they arrange for couple of phasing-in-sessions with the Parent(whichever parent works closer to the Nursery...and thats ME) and Kid and the Key workers. Just like all parents I was a lil apprehensive....Not so much as to toss and turn in the bed for weeks....or just clutch and unclutch my palms and turn them into this COLD tight balls of fist(can't do that with a baby in your arms, can you now???) ...I would wonder and sometimes dread...what will happen to the Baby rather Babies??? oh you are thinking I am talking about My baby...nnnnnnaaaaaahhhhh about all the other babies/kids who are gonna be there...
It was deja vu...something straight out of my dreams and into my life...I took Mummu to this Nursery called Eureka...I got in, holding my lil baby in my arms...and was just getting my rounds of introductions done with the gals/ladies there and mainly with the Key Worker, Sal (who was gonna look after my lil baby) no sooner was that done...my lil baby...slided out of my arms and went to each of the kids saying Baby baby baby...and in the 2 hours that I was with her...I don't remember her turning around and looking for me...or crying for me (thats the appropriate reaction I was hoping for :( )
All she managed to do was charm this lil stud Oliver who came to her and pushed all those silky curls off her eyes(impressive!!!) and towards the end of 2 hours, he managed to hug her as well...which was the first
Ahhmmmmmmmmm...I was up late thinking about My dolls first day in nursery...

Things

that Mummu loves to do
1. She is addicted to TV especially to songs
2. She dances with her right hand in the air
3. She starts her dance with tapping of her right foot
4. She doesn't like her hair tied
5. She forces Law of Gravity on everything, the drawers, the biscuits, her dads specs and the laptops (Phew!!! we need to relocate that laptop now)
6. She loves Mobile phones...and loves to bang it on the floor...and loves to call the very 1st number on the redial list
7. Wen she sees that her dudu is ready in the bottle, she jogs to her play area and waits for the bottle to be handed over to her
8. Her favorite toy is her small teddy which she has to have when she goes to sleep or else she keeps sleeptalking and calling out for her teddy
9. Her 1st day in Nursery was eventful, once she was back home, she kept calling out "Baby Baby Baby" all the time, even in her sleep...

10. and the best of all....she now knows to knock so if she knows I m on the other side of the door she goes rolling her fist, turning them around and knock knock knock and mummmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaa ....
