The Tot's Act of late

Ever since XH (in short Bernice) fell sick 2 weeks ago, with upper respiratory tract infection, she fusses over every single little thing. She will start wailing for hours with all her might for no particular reason, leaving me drained of all strength. And the worst of all is she doesn't want to let daddy console or carry her, she only wants ME! Imagine coming back from a day's of work, dead from my feet, i have to deal with her hysterical cries, incessable tantrums and whatever nonsense she threw at me. I get screamed at her frequently and "tortures" me for her own amusement. And late at night, i am not able to have restful sleep. She yells out of a sudden when she is already asleep and continues till her tears dried up! I endure the day with only that 3-4 hours of sleep every night. Sometimes i really wish that i can cast her aside, yet i know that i am responsible for her life, her well-being. For now, my love for her is unconditional, nobody has yet made me feel that way. I swear i will give my life for her.

On a happier note, sometimes, when i look at XH, i think she is actually a 20 year-old adult trapped in a tiny 20-months old's body. =_= For example:

When she sees that there are bits and pieces of tissues on the floor, she sweeps the floor till it is spick-and-span, carefully emptying all the contents in the dustpan into the dustbin.

She is too observant for her age, pointing to a tiny mango hanging from a big mango tree outside our house. She notices light flashing from the headlight of a bicycle from a far distance.

She directs me to her lost pillow lying beside a camouflaged toy in the store room.

She improvises new lyrics and tunes to songs to suit new occasion. She sings: Rain, rain, go "gai gai" take umbrella.. when actually it should be Rain, Rain, go away, come again another day. Another one is : London bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down. London bridge is falling down, my friend uncle?!

When she sees that my hair turns messy, quickly she grabs a comb and comb through my hair. After that she says :"nice, nice." :D

Honestly, sometimes i don't know what to say about her (-_-)
