I was tired. I was sleepy. But Timmy and Leia were hungry.... Leia was making a lot of noise... I could not go on sleeping. I had to feed them... they ate from out of my hands. They ate slowly. Timmy made things more difficult by running out half way through. I ran after him to make sure he ate.. Leia ran after me, asking me to feed her. She had finished her food and wanted to eat some more.... because Timmy was still eating. There will always be rivalry between the two.
Later both of them were on each of my side, I was combing their hair... both lying down... helpless in my hands...
I realise, they do not have a choice but to depend on me. They have no choice but to trust that I meet their needs. They are helpless. I realise that faced with such a situation, I do not have the heart to be mean... I can only respond to meet their needs and wants.
I learn to love and be loved.
