NIGHT CHAT –

MIA: What would you do with your life if I die, Mom?

JING: Oh… I don’t know. I haven’t thought about that. Why do you ask?

MIA: I want to know if you’ll be sad. (looked like she was about to cry..)

JING: Oh, not just sad. I’d cry everyday.

MIA: Will you burn me and put my ashes in a pendant?

JING: Mia… Why are we talking about this? You’re scaring me..

(her tears rolled down this time)

MIA: That is why.. (sobbing) I always pray to God to bless you… and me… with long life, Mommy…

MIA: Mommy, I have a question. I’ve been wondering… Was there ever a time that you didn’t love me?

JING: No. And there won’t ever be.

MIA: Even when you get upset or get mad at me, there’s still love?

JING: Yep. Love is just always there. And it will always be there. Why do you ask?

MIA: Nothing. Just wonderin.

JING: Was there ever a time you felt you’re not loved?

MIA: No.

JING: What made you ask then?

MIA: Nothing. Just checking. If you ask me those questions, I’ll answer the same things you answered to me.

Today, my 6-year-old sat on my lap and I embraced her comfortably from behind while I trimmed her fingernails.

It was a calm morning, no shouting, we weren’t rushing, she was already dressed for school, she already finished her breakfast and we were just waiting for the school service.

I started with her pinky and then her ring finger when she suddenly said,

“Awww… I’m so glad I have you in my life, Mom.”

I don’t know if she’s just happy that someone trims her fingernails for her but I heartily replied,

I’m so glad I have you in my life too..

❤️❤️❤️
