Only as high as i reach can i grow

Only as far as i seek can i go

Only as deep as i look can i see

Only as much as i dream can i be

You are a gentle flower; you are the sun & rain
You came & I discovered my life would never be the same again
When the first time I saw you I knew it was forever
When we took you home, that night I dont think one wink I slept
As I slipped out my bed to your crib I crept to touch you gently
You gave that joy to me, when my whole world was lonely
When im all alone its you that I miss
Im so glad I had you

Let me be a good mommy is all you need
I try to be a tough mom for love knowledge discipline too
I will test that button when you get outta line
Always tell the truth say your prayers
I pledge to you I will always do
You are the purpose to my everything

One day you will discover, love and hurt
Throughout life people will make you mad
Disrespect you and treat you bad
If the world attacks and you slide off track
It gonna hurt bad, but don’t take it out on the next
Let God deal with the things they do
Cause hate in your heart will consume you too

You are the light , that’s placed in me
To the place I go to find peace...again and again
You are the strength , that keeps me walking
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting
You are the purpose…to my everything

If I could write a story
It would be the greatest ever told
Of a kind and loving father
Who had a heart of gold

If I could write a million pages
But still be unable to say,
just how much Lana love and misses him
Every single day

Lana is just of the shower, her favourite activity...

2008-03-15T20:21:00.000-07:00

“What Is A Little Girl!”
She's a bundle of sweetness, brightness & fun
The beauty of springtime, the warmth of the sun
She's Innocence covered with mud, sand, & soot
She's Motherhood dragging a doll by the foot...
She's a composite picture of giggles & tears
Of tantrums, excitement, amusement & fears
A bundle of mischief and often a tease
A creature of moods not easy to please...

Who'll capture your heart with her pixie-like grin
Or chatter and beg till your patience wears thin
But obedient, naughty, mischievous or coy
She's Mom's little Darling & Dad's Pride & Joy.

Lana is ONE YEAR OLD little lady!!! 19th July 2007 was her birthday and we had a great party with family and friends.

2007-07-15T03:37:00.000-07:00

Hush now, my baby
Be still love, don't cry
Sleep like you're rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember
My lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream

Drift on a river
That flows through my arms
Drift as I'm singing to you
I see you smiling
So peaceful and calm
And holding you, I'm smiling, too
Here in my arms
Safe from all harm
Holding you, I'm smiling, too

oh and one more thing.....

lana gets to ride on the famous krolhi... most of the time thats what she gets to do...

we take her out and then send her back so most of the time she is riding krolhi back and forth.which ofcourse means a lot for her!!!!! hav a picture too with her crammed into a krolhi ready to take off.

she also loves to ride the van...sometimes sits in the front seats and enjoys sitting there all big and mature.

the flight was hectic. lana was getting everyone's attention...all noisy and shouting....before take off she went to sleep and did not wake up till it was time to land...whew!!!!!

ps. at the zoo....lana enjoying pulling on kids hair!!!! they didn't enjoy it ofcourse.

We took lana on her first trip. A weekend at Medhufushi. We went on 11th May, Friday & came back Sunday early morning.

It was the first time:
* Lana was taken out that early - 4:30am wake up, out at 5:30am
* Dhoni ride to Hulhule
* flew on a seaplane
* stayed at a resort
* had cheese slice for breakfast
* touch of the sandy beach
* had a swim in the lagoon
* had a bath in the bathtub
...and most important of all
* took three steps on her own...

It was a busy weekend of new things for our babes!!! with no fuss...!!!

2007-05-08T23:45:00.000-07:00

Last night was a long night. Lana had us up from 11pm till 3am. Apparently she had enough sleep from 8.30 till 11.00 since there was not a sign of sleep in her eyes. All up and ready to play while we dragged ourseleves, trying to keep our lids open.

She sat with her bappa in the sitting room watching a movie for quite sometimes too...and every now and then we would put her to bed only to find her jumping right back up....

It was a long night where we finally fell asleep exhausted, but lana was happy and up at her usual time again today.

New things....

2007-05-08T04:44:00.000-07:00

Lana has some new stuff today. This morning she woke up and found her new brick table. Which she played with for a while and forgot about them.

Later again when she woke up at her grandmothers place she found rubber table of Alphabets...which were mostly thrown & some in her mouth. And then Nanna brought with her a nice pinky bloated hammer, yellow spikey ball and two bright panties.... this has been a good day.

mommies girl...

2007-05-08T04:43:00.000-07:00

Lana did a Big Poop today!!! She is a star! Mmm mua

Lana's first day in her new world...

2007-05-06T04:52:00.000-07:00

On 19th July 2006, 11:19 pm, after 24hrs of labour pain, 7 hours unberable contracts....
I gave birth to Lana.

She was perfect, the most beautiful little baby...I could not beleive she was mine. When she came out she was not making a sound, instead she was already busy searching....where am I...who are these people...???

She was small & cute, weighed 2.8 kg, scored higher than average in her first test, where they check to see eyesight, alertness etc. All soaked, she had nothing to say, until she was taken from my view & then we heard the most beautiful sound, lana was crying. Her first sound.

She was always active even when she was in my womb. Always kicking, swimming around, until she was too big to move. Then she would poke her fingers, legs, back, sometimes I would have to push them back cause of the discomfort. Doctors had a hard time measuring her while we did a scan, because she was so active.

Well, our 9 months of waiting to see our baby girl was all worth it in the end. She was the most beautiful thing that came into our lives & changed it forever.

We love you Lana, with all our hearts, always.

Mum & Dad
