Morning bondings with Joshua
Tag: daddy feels
One night of a mess
12:30 am, wifey woke me up to change Joshua’s diaper as she checked that it has already full of poops. Our last diaper change was 8:30 pm. It was usual for me to change diaper but this time was different.
As I’m changing Joshua’s diaper, cleaning his butt from any residue, he cried, waking up his brother Johan. While managing Joshua’s cry, he also showered with pee making his overall to get wet including the nearby pillow. I have to finish drying him up to subside his cry while I already called wifey to look after Johan. She found out that Johan’s diaper is already full and his pajamas is also wet from his pee. She change Johan’s diaper while I’m still managing to change Joshua’s overall. While I was changing, he then vomits most of his intake milk. I was pressured to finished fast knowing that he may vomit another wave. I need to ensure that all of his footsie and mittens are dry and also his inner cloth. I also need to ensure that no vomit residue has gone inside his ears. He is also having a hiccups from the spit up and vomits and need to sway him to prevent from another loud cry.
Thank God that he is not crying. I started to get frustrated of all the parallel events occurred at this time of night. I thank God for giving me patience to manage my frustration and confusion. I love my wife for supporting me to ensure that Johan is also attended and to help him go back to sleep. Thank God that after all of this mess, Johan and Joshua is already back asleep.
Daddy’s Song: When I Pray for You
Dearest Baby Johan,
This morning, your Daddy is a bit emotional about something (yes, he is more ma-emo than Mommy, fyi). He came across a song, and this is a song for you, Baby. Because we know you always feel the love especially when we are praying for you.
We are already looking forward to see you. For the meantime, enjoy your time there. Daddy can’t wait to talk to you exclusively! But for now, you and I have exclusive quality time (sorry for the Cloud trainings you attended with me–too early for you but Mommy needs to learn it).
For now, Daddy can’t talk to you without me knowing everything he whispers to you! 🙂

“When I Pray For You”
I talk to God about you
And I ain’t even met you yet
Everybody’s waitin’ on you here
I can’t wait to feel your heart beat
When I lay you on my chest
I’m already holding back my tears
I wanna be the dad that my dad was
I hope that I don’t mess this whole thing up
I pray you love like your momma
And you forgive just like she does
And when this life knocks you down
I hope you get down on your knees
Cause that’s what I do, that’s what I do
When I pray for you
Oh, and I pray for you
I know you’re gonna grow up some day
But don’t forget to take your time
And take the time to call back home
It ain’t always gonna be easy
It ain’t always gonna be fair
I know you ain’t always gonna need me
But I promise that I’ll always be there
I pray you love like your momma
And you forgive just like she does
And when this life knocks you down
I hope you get down on your knees
Cause that’s what I do, that’s what I do
When I pray for you
Oh, and I pray for you
I talk to God about you
When everything around me breaks
I look up and hear him say
Love like your momma
And forgive just like she does
And when this life knocks you down
I hope you get down on your knees
Cause that’s what I do, that’s what I do
When I pray for you
When I pray for you
When I pray for you
