Daddy's New Year's Resolution

Dear En Xi,

Daddy is committed to 3 things to you this year.

1. Be More Patient.

In my earlier entry in Dec 08, I mentioned that you had me found inner peace. But, I realised that it was short lived, my patience with you did not translate to any change to my irritable personality. Patience did not exude from within me. Though I was always calm with you, I did not show that to Mummy, Grandpa, Grandma and all the people that meant everything to Daddy. I'm regretful and is now committed to be more patient, not because I'm obliged to, but because I want to.


2. Blog More.

As it stands now, for every 4 entries, only 1 is written by Daddy. I want to contribute more, to be more involved in your life. I want you to know how you grew up, who took you to your first day at school, what sacrifices did Mummy made, where was your first vacation, when you had your first tooth and why I started this blog.

In future, if you ever had kids, you will know how it felt like being a Mom, who needs support the most, what were the highs & lows, where can you find courage, when to show compassion and why we had you.

3. Read More.

I had bought a fair amount of books for you, but not invested adequate time to read to you. Learning should be fun, but can only be fun if you make it look and feel fun. Not only that, Daddy feels that language skills can make a definite difference to one's life. I hope to achieve that for you.

Yours Most Faithfully,

Daddy
