<\/a>Me : “Zara, where is Daddy?”<\/span>
\nZara : “There” (pointed outside)
\n<\/span>Me : “Daddy go where?”<\/span>
\nZara : “Work Work”<\/span>
\nMe : “Daddy sit what to go work work?”
\n<\/span>Zara : “Uh-pen” (Airoplane)<\/span><\/p>\n

Daddy has been away for more than 2 weeks now. Does Zara miss him? Or Does Zara know how to miss him? She doesn’t cry for him, but there are signs which shows there’s a hint of longing for the man who reads her bed time stories<\/a>, who gives her horsey rides<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She woke up at home, and pointed outside (where Daddy had been quarantined for a week because he had a very bad flu just before he left) and said, “Daddy”<\/span> then looked at me and waited for an answer.<\/p>\n

She picked up the phone and started talking to the mouth piece, “Daddy, mm-hhh, mm-hhh”<\/span> (the mm-hhh, mm-hhh sounded sad, a sound she pretended to make when we asked her to show us how she cried).<\/p>\n

She reached her hand out to an imaginary image, and said, “Daddy, Keh-Yee”<\/span>; “Daddy, Keh-Yee”<\/span> (Daddy, Carry).<\/p>\n

Daddy will be home tomorrow, I would like to see if Zara will squeal in delight to see him. As for me, I will, thinking of those goodies he’s bringing back for me.<\/p>\n

And btw, if you are reading this, Happy Birthday, Dear. The lotus plant bloomed while you were away.<\/span><\/p>\n
