Being pregnant means I have extra of everything, from extra fats anywhere to extra sensitivity of emotions to extra mix of feelings. So if my old me is a cry baby, I am cry baby now times two.
Last Sunday, my daughter Yena together with her cousins marched down the altar to give stipend on the offertory. I was so proud of her that my eyes started to get wet with tears while I sung the offertory song with the choir. I have to look at different directions – to the wall, to the laminate flooring of the church and to the altars just to hide that I was crying. I was so overjoyed seeing her smiling while she handed down the white envelope to our parish priest. She is such a joy to watch!
I was reading the news about the workers of the Fukushima Daichi Powerplant now and i started to felt a lump in my throat. As if I would burst into tears, on how heroic their deeds are to offer their lives just so millions could be saved from the possible radiation scare – not only in Japan but all over the world.
I know I would have this extra of everything even until I deliver my baby number 2, but this is what I am. If there’s no tears on good or bad news – that would not be me.


Little Yena is a big girl now…she grows too fast Mareng Niks whoot. I can relate to your feeling as I myself will react the same way seeing our precious child.
