formerly pauline chu: What I love
http://paulinechu.blogspot.com/2011/06/what-i-love.html
Monday, June 06, 2011. I love you so much. I love looking at your long eyelashes which everyone marvels at. I love seeing how your cheeks grow bigger by the day. That's because sometimes you drink 7 ounces in a feed when the AAP suggests keeping feeds to 3.5 ounces. Your father and I worry about you getting too big. I love seeing you enjoy your bath. I love the way you sit in the nook of my arm when I'm feeding you. I love seeing your grandma talk to you. I love seeing your daddy hold you. I love to read.

Musings and Opinions (Rants and Raves? Of a Corporate Idealist. Tuesday, March 15, 2011. I'm in Jakarta again, this time visiting some factories we currently work with and assessing some others that are not yet approved for my company.
