She’s A Big Girl Now

Nisaa on the swing - 22nd December 2006

This picture of Nisaa was taken as she turned 23 months old. Next month, she’ll turn two years old.

She’s a big girl now, she can form sentences, count from one to ten in both Malay and English, and whenever I do something absurd in front of her, she’d laugh and say, “Gila.”

Everywhere I take her people would come up to her and kiss her and tell me how much they love her curls and eyelashes.

And I love the way she calls out to me whenever she wakes up…always with a big smile.
