My Baby is 3 Years Old

Sharif has a sweetest way of saying words. Dzyamp is for jump. Cream up is clean up. Aikup is wake up. He was telling Aikap! to the cats in the pet store. Ice kweem - is ice cream. wo kei - is ok. Ferrets are carrots. He also copies my blinking the eyes. I do it since childhood unintentionally as a result of some stress. But he noticed it and started blinking away and it' so funny. I love his little nose, how he blows it proudly when it's running so I run towards him with a tissue ready. He kisses me so sweetly. My belly and my legs even. And he is very sensitive and smart, I feel how deep is his inner world, I feel that this baby feels almost like an adult. It's because earlier in his life he felt unloved - and child who is unloved is just a little adult as saying goes. Todd is warming up only last few months, I see he gives him light kisses on the head. Before he told me that in US men don't kiss men. And me...I was so poor myself when Sharif was a baby, that I had nothing to give sometimes. But now I'm rich! I feel wealth inside of me since I started to pray. Thank God! God is great! Allahu Akbar!

WEEK 36

Mon/Oct 12/2009

The last trimester is a real pregnancy. I'm heavy, slow, hard to stand up and hard to sit down.
It's not easy to live without friends and any social circle too. They said it'll be easy to breath because the baby drops. When actually I have a hard time breathing recently for the 1st time. And the heartburn didn't go away. Promises, promises...

I haven't been to birth center last 3 weeks. I hope I'm all right. I know I gained some pounds - I ate a cake on Sat when Todd didn't see. Now I'm about 175, but I'm afraid to look at the scale - may be more? And I used to be 120. What a stress for the body.

I started to DO marketing. Yesterday Todd gave me an assignment to write a sales page for one IT guy. I discovered it's not so much about copywriting, but about a strategy. First I'll write a free report, then a squeeze page and then may be a sales page if the guy will want to.

I have to come up with an idea what people want to read in this report. That's a challenge now. I don't have any ideas what can be the biggest challenge that IT guy can solve. Need a research.

Since today I decided to blog about my baby too. It's only 3-4 weeks left. Amazing, how you can't see this baby, but you know he must be all shaped by now.

He is kicking like a football player. I'm thinking what kind of music should I play for him when he's born? Of course, classic. But what composer? If baby listens to a classic piece from the beginning he will be able to play it by ear by the age of 2-3, according to Suzuki.

I'll probably teach him piano.
