Pepper's 3rd letter to Leonidas
This is the third letter Pepper made for Leonidas in our little scrapbook.
it has been a week of phone calls from friends and family. they were very excited for mommy and daddy. daddy would often come home with "pasalubong" for us. he would give in to any of our requests! he would buy us ice cream, cakes, chocolates! all the sweet stuff that i would crave for! but of course we would not dare forget to feed you with the right food. veggies and fish usually, and my daily dose of fruits (our favorite, a big serving of water melon! yum yum!) daddy also somehow took over the kitchen. he would prepare dinner and wash the dishes after. it was kind of heartbreaking for me to see daddy doing my chores after a long day at work. he was more than happy to do it for us though. how can you not love him?? he also started saving up for your future. putting aside a hefty portion of his salary for you.
it was also the same week when daddy announced to his family the good news. everyone was just so excited to welcome you in the family. lola sue treated everyone for a chinese dinner at tita bianca's house. daddy and mommy could not stop smiling the whole time because we were so proud to know that you've made everyone so happy!
the next monday, april 16, 2007, it was time for the second ultrasound. i said a little prayer for us and hoped to see you in good condition. i was surprised to see you've grown so fast! i could actually see you!! and since you have grown, we could now see your tiny heart and could now monitor your heartbeat. i was relieved to know your heart was beating (again, mommy is a worry wart!).
after the ultrasound, i had to ask daddy to join me inside the doctors office. there was a problem. according to the ultrasound, you were a bit small for your age, did not eat much and your heart was weak. the news made our knees shake! i wanted to cry right there and then but mommy and daddy had to be strong for you. i was then advised by our doctor to bed rest for 2 weeks till it was time for the 3rd ultrasound. daddy felt sad but he had to hide his emotions a bit because he knew he had to think of a way to make us feel comfortable and relaxed to help make your condition better.
daddy and i decided that it would be best for us to stay in lolo's house for the next 2 weeks because someone had to watch over us while daddy's working.
while we were in bf, and while daddy was away, lolo and tita peaches took care of us. lolo would prepare healthy and yummy meals for us and tita peaches would buy whatever food we like for "pasalubong". daddy would come visit us almost everyday! again, it broke my heart to see him tired from work and yet drove from pasig to bf just to be with us. he even drove from cainta to san juan to buy your medicines and bring it to bf. daddy, like tita peaches, would buy us treats to munch on. a whole box of my favorite carrot cake, lots of burgers, a big serving of halo-halo, and a lot lot more!! he even brought with him our TV from the condo just so i did not have to walk to lolo's room to watch TV. and these gestures leonidas, is what you call LOVE... you are one lucky babe!!!
