10 months....

10 months.... it's really fast. Just an blink of an eye, Zachary is already 10 months old. In 2 months time, he will be celebrating his 1st birthday!!!

He has come a long way, and our dear God has been really good as always. Zach is growing strong, healthy, ever so joyful...

Now, he already has 8 tooth, 4 above and 4 below...heehee... he has learned to recognise light and fan, learned to wave 'bye bye'.

I am happy and proud to be his daddy. Though I am not perfect, and from young, I do not have a dad as my role model, I am trying to be the best dad I can be to him. I love him.

Just wanna share a song by Phillips, Craig & Dean. The title and lyrics of the song is....


(I Want To Be Just Like You)

He climbs in my lap for a goodnight hug
He calls me Dad and I call him Bub
With his faded old pillow and a bear named Pooh
He snuggles up close and says, "I want to be like you"
I tuck him in bed and I kiss him goodnight
Trippin' over the toys as I turn out the light
And I whisper a prayer that someday he'll see
He's got a father in God 'cause he's seen Jesus in me

Lord, I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be just like me
I want to be a holy example
For his innocent eyes to see
Help me be a living Bible, Lord
That my little boy can read
I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be like me

Got to admit I've got so far to go
Make so many mistakes and I'm sure that You know
Sometimes it seems no matter how hard I try
With all the pressures in life I just can't get it all right
But I'm trying so hard to learn from the best
Being patient and kind, filled with Your tenderness
'Cause I know that he'll learn from the things that he sees
And the Jesus he finds will be the Jesus in me
Right now from where he stands I may seem mighty tall
But it's only 'cause I'm learning from the best Father of them all


I am still learning, learning from the best Father of them all....
