my family misses anu. it's been almost 2 weeks since she'd gone. 2 weeks. i didn't even realise time just went by so fast. anu came into our lives about a month ago. and we took care of her for 2 weeks, before her mom decided to have her back. i miss her. i wish i had taken more photos of her. i still remember how she would cry just so that one of us would carry her and walk her around. and everytime someone slid his/her hands under her shoulders to lift her up, she would crane her neck up as if impatient for us to already carry her. and once we carried her, she would stop crying. she love to smile and laugh. she would giggle and then throw this big toothless grin, her two perfect dimples showing. and that little giggle, that little laugh. i doubt anybody can resist smiling back at her. and we all did crazy things just to please her. i spent goodness knows how long doing peek-a-boo just so she would laugh. and her dark brown eyes would glow. she's a happy baby. and i hope she'll grow up to be a happy kid. i remembered carrying her to the piano. she started squirming when i sat down, she didn't like being put down. i opened the piano cover, played a few keys. she got interested i suppose, and then she was leaning forward to press her fist on the keys. it was super cute. she was hitting the keys and smiling.

my mum had to return her to her mother on the 14th of february. i wasn't there to say goodbye, give her one last kiss and carry her one last time. i had already gone to school. i don't know when we can ever see her again. but i've a feeling that those 2 weeks are the only times we would have together. i just hope that wherever she is, or she would be, she'd always be happy and smiling and laughing.
