Oh My Sleeping Child !
Everytime I see my own little girl, asleep, with looks so innocent, I see her differently.
I wonder how she'll turn out in life, wonder if she'll be happy, succesful ? will she be filial ?
My favourite song from Michael Learns To Rock - Sleeping Child will keep playing in my mind :
The milky way upon the heavens,
Is twinkling just for you,
And mr. moon, he came by,
To say goodnight to you.
I sing for you,I sing for mother,
Were praying for the world,
And for the people everywhere,
Gonna show them all we care,
Oh my sleeping child,
The world's so wild,
But you built your own paradise,
That's one reason why I cover you sleeping child.
If all the people around the world,
They had a mind like yours,
We'd have no fighting and no wars,
There would be lasting peace on earth.
If all the kings and all the leaders,
Could see you here this way,
They would hold the earth in there arms,
They would learn to watch you play.
Oh my sleeping child,
The world's so wild,
But you built your own paradise,
That's one reason why I cover you sleeping child.
Cover my child,I'm gonna cover my sleeping child,
Keep you away,
Keep you away from the world so wild,
Keep you away from the world,
Away from the world so wild,
Oh my sleeping child,
The world's so wild,
But you built your own paradise,
That's one reason why I cover you sleeping
Photos of my sleeping baby :
This one taken at childminders. She was sleeping, diapers, pyjamas and all. We cradled her like a baby all the way there and placed her on her sleeping mattress, she didn't budge or twitch!
Here at our home, another early morning. Amber still sleeping, Papa carries her over the shoulder to Boon kor kor's car.
My sleeping child, my innocent child.
