Missing her Papa

May 1, 2008 at 12:09 am | Posted in Uncategorized | 1 Comment

Hubby’s been really busy at work. Monday night Iya went to bed without seeing him since he arrived really late. When she woke up the ff day he was at work already (hubby didn’t want to disturb the princess’ sleep) prompting her to tell or rather ask “mama, did papa go home already? then he went to work again while i’m sleeping?” and she checked the other room hoping her papa was there. So that night after dinner this was what she told me:

“mama, i’m going to sleep here in the sofa. so that when papa doorbells, i will wake up”

Unfortunately hubby arrived late again. But she did manage to wake up early and see him this morning. She missed him so much. Good thing he arrived early from work today too. You should’ve heard her scream! she was sooo excited! “look mama, it’s PAPAAAAAAA!” with matching hug and kisses! Kala mo talaga ilang taon ng hindi nagkita!

When it was time for her to go to bed she wanted hubby to go up with her. But hubby was infront of his laptop doing some work. And I couldn’t blame Iya when we heard her exclaiming in dismay

“but papa… you already work in the office. stop working now it’s time to go to bed”

sigh… it’s really heartbreaking… and she’s only 4. We just keep explaining to her why papa has to work a lot etc.

Hubby feels guilty ofcourse. He does give Iya a call everyday from work asking how she is and she’d gladly tell him what she was doing the time he called. Sabay sumbong na din yun if ever napagalitan ko sya that day or whatever. Funny lang, she knows that papa goes to work every single day..but still when she answers the phone the 1st thing she’ll ask is

“papa, where are you?” 😀
