She came a week too late….6 years ago. And when she did, she came with a bang. I almost didn’t make it to the delivery table actually. But it was a relatively problem free delivery.
From then on it was a roller coaster ride for everyone. She inherited more than my good looks….ahem. She managed to snatch up the infamous “de Guzman temper” that seems prevalent on our side of the family. Except that she took it a notch higher.
Other than her temper, she also inherited my love for retail therapy…take this…she learned how to read the word sale even before she started her reading lessons in school. But not everything she is came from me…she also inherited her father’s intellect. Yup, I’m not as studious…so I give that to him.
So can you imagine what its like to have a little urchin with a quick temper and an even quicker tongue? Not easy I tell you. But hey, I’m not complaining. Life wouldn’t be as interesting without her.
And after 6 years, Iife can only get more interesting.
