going back home from my out of the country trip, i was so tired and all i wanted to do was sleep, sleep and sleep, feeling so tired because the flight was a graveyard schedule ...


there was a baby who kept on crying and everybody seemed irritated. they were seated in front of me and since the parents could not pacify the crying baby being a mother myself, i stood up, said hello to that baby, gave him my smile, and said.." why are you crying baby?" the baby smiled back, jumped and embraced me. i felt i was being embraced by an angel that time...he transferred to my seat and i was his nanny for 2 hours..hehehe. during the whole flight he was on my lap, we were playing until he went to sleep.

the parents thanked me... by the way, the mother is a filipina from ozamis city and the father is a pakistani. sad to say, i forgot to ask the name of the baby and even his parents...but i was able to take a picture of him. DSC00277

    i flew from indiana to japan once. 24 hours without sleep. then i continued on to taiwan. 4 more hours on a plane with a whole bunch of taiwanese students who were coming back from disneyland. running around, whooping it up, complete with the mouse ears. no sleep on that flight either. and yea, it's funny to look back on, but at the time...
     
    you had a much better experience, i'd rather fly with an angel :-)
     
    to attach a picture, you have to go to www.flickr.com and create an account. then you have to upload the picture to that site. then you go to view the picture and click on the little 'size' spy glass above the picture. then you copy the 'html' code under the picture. then you come back to soulcast and click on the 'flickr' icon above the post and paste the html code into the little box that pops up, and voila! you got an embedded photo on your post :-) easy peasy, right?

    YOU are the angel - sounds like you and the baby each touched one anothers' souls.  What a kind, generous gesture, Rain.
  • Hegemone said on May 12, 2009....
    Wow, how sweet of you to do that!  I bet it made it a pretty quick flight getting to play with a baby the whole time too!  It's amazing how quickly a bond can be established with babies, especially those you've never met.
  • speaking_up said on May 12, 2009....
    I think baby's sense the stress of their mommy's and daddy's.  And they react by this crying that seems to have no reason.  It was terrific of you to take the load off - all three of them!
     
    Your title reminded me of a story I have regarding angels...I believe I was truly 'angel kissed' not too long ago.  I may share that soon.
     
    Thanks for the warming post!
