Letters to Raphael




Some days I look at you and I can't believe you are really ours. As cliche as it sounds, how did we get so lucky?! You have the sweetest heart, so much love to share.
Seringkali mama menatapmu seakan tidak percaya bahwa kamu merupakan milik mama. Memang kedengarannya klise, tapi mama seringkali bersyukur dan merasa sangat beruntung, bahwa kamu memiliki hati yang termanis dengan cinta yang begitu besar.





You are just one years old and are becoming oh, so brilliant. I know sometimes it is hard to communicate exactly how you are feeling... (that's when your loud screeching noise comes out that makes us all a bit crazy.) But you do your best and are using words more and more every day.
Kamu baru berusia setahun namun sudah sangat pintar. Mama tahu terkadang sulit rasanya untuk berkomunikasi, karena Mama belum mengerti bahasamu dan juga sebaliknya…. (itu ketika kamu berteriak karena frustasi). Tapi kamu terus berusaha dengan sebaik-baiknya.





You are constantly saying, "wa… wa… wa… wa…", "appa" and whispering, "mama..." which is my favorite. Never stop talking and wondering. It is a great quality to keep throughout your entire life.
Bahasa bayimu merupakan favorit mama. Tidak pernah berhenti untuk berbicara, dan bermimpi.





Your laugh is contagious and your spirit brings us so much joy. We love you, little one, thank you for choosing us. And thank You, God.#letterstoraphael #sundayfeels
Tawamu dan semangatmu membawa sukacita yang luar biasa. Mama sayang kamu, nak. Terimakasih Tuhan.

If you trip with your feet, you can get back up again and continue as usual. We all make mistakes like this sometimes. It might be embarrassing, but only if you care greatly about the opinions of others. If you trip with your tongue, you unleash more than just words. You share thoughts, desires, or perspectives that may hurt others. Once you’ve said something hurtful, you can’t undo it. There’s no getting back up; there’s only asking for forgiveness and hoping they’ll pull you back up. Think before you speak. Whatever you say, write, or tweet will be out there forever. You can burn pages, delete tweets and Facebook comments, but you can’t pull your words from someone else’s mind. So, while you may one day forget why you said such hurtful things, others won’t. Don’t forget an earlier lesson that says it’s best not to speak unless you know for certain it’s something worth saying. If even a sliver of your being thinks what you’re about to say is better left unsaid, just keep it t...

JUST SHARE IT!

There are so so many good days around here. So many smiles, perfect moments, experiences as a mother I wouldn't trade for anything. There are also times where I feel the days begin to blur into the next, where I'm deep in the trenches of motherhood, deep in the tediousness of each and every need. Work and other projects are so exciting and exhausting at the same time. One million things (it seems) pulling me in one million different directions and some days it's hard for me to handle it all emotionally... My anxiety to have everything perfect and in-line, when sometimes it is out of my control, can be tough. Begitu banyak hari-hari yang menyenangkan belakangan ini. Rasanya menjalani hidup bersama Tuhan itu membuat segala sesuatunya menjadi indah dan mudah. Terimakasih Tuhan. This is all very vague. But I'm sure so many of you know the feeling of anxiety and being completely overwhelmed. And I just want to share that it's okay! An...
