little snail crawling adventures,

Little snail fell off the bed yesterdae. My deduction: She woke up from her sleep, crept n crawled over the bolsters around her, over the bed ledge. Before we knew it, my sis-in-law heard a thump. And we found her on the floor.

Up to todae, no one knew how she fell off the bed. Onli Kielli & God knows. The litle snail cried for less than 5 mins and was then up to her normal self. When we brought her to KK, she was still smiling at the nurses. Well, She was way toooooo normal despite the fall. But I was HORRIFIED. Trust me. I got a horrible fright. It took me some time b4 i got over the shock. Perhaps, it;s the first kid syndrome. I was juz in SHOCK.

This gal is way too hyperactive, too fast, too adventurous. It's onli her 2nd day of crawling n she kinda had crawled over all the pillows & bolsters on the bed.

To think back,since she was young, Terence had been laying obstacles all over our bed and training her to crawl all over. He allowed her to crawl OVER the bolsters, pillows, over his body, his chest, his shoulders, his face, his feet, arms, and everything else on his body. He would put one pillow, then one bolster after it. And then stack up 2 pillows n let his dear daughter crawl over it. Or 2 pillows, then 1 bolsters. Anwyay, watever permutations he can think of, he will "train" her to crawl. i wonder if it's a daddy thingy to strategise such crawling program .His rationale: to train her to be more tough. Not him alone. I am guilty of that too. But i do it more for pure fun. Coz it's way too fun to have a little teeny weeny living thing with lotsa funnie expressions crawling all over u. i can't resist it. Perhaps, tat's why little Kielli crawled over the bolsters n off the bed.

Anyway, TEr & i thank God for protecting little Kielli. Apparently, the little gal did not cry when she's on the floor. She onli started crying when we picked her up.
It dawned upon me that God has been protecting tis little gal that she suffered no major injury when she fell off the bed. God is truly good!! Brings me back to the past when little Kielli was inside my womb, measuring barely 2cm with a 8cm cyst behind her. And God took away the 8cm cyst and protected tis little one. I was telling Ter that perhaps as Kielli fell off the bed, some nice angels carried her. That's why she was perfectly fine. :) Watever it is, i we know that that God has divinely protected Kielli from the fall. ANd we thank God for His protection on tis little gal.


Tis beautiful little gal is truly made by God and for God. ANd i know God loves her. SO perhaps, it's truly time to let go and give her to God. I can't possibly be there for her 24 hrs a day.With her playful & adventurous nature, i know that there will be more accidents to come in the future. But i can trust that wheerevr tis little gal is, God is with her.

AS i watch little Kielli with her hyper-active character, i wonder wat God has in store for her in the future and who she will be when she grows up. Well, i never will know the future. But my desire: As God has uniquely made her with her unique character, strengths and weaknesses, may she grow up to be who God wants her to be and see the world thru God's eyes.

At the speed that Kielli travels, i am definetely going to lose more weight. YIPEE!!
