Swatting Pitik

Fists floating in his field of vision is a thing of the past; now the fists land in his mouth. Sethia used to love saying hello and chit-chatting with Pingu, a fishing-Penguin mobile; now he prefers a more vigorous play, swatting and grabbing Pitik (chicken in Javanese). :p In addition to cries of hunger and over-tiredness, or wanting a companion, now he cries because of boredom for a change in the activity. Sethia used to watch passively; now he initiates conversations and no frozen hearts can help but melt when he greets with smiles and squeals of delight as bright as spring's sun. :')

One of the most difficult yet spontaneous things a child does is grow, isn't it? :')

This reminds me of a Psalm: "The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing; To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him." (Psa. 92:12-15)

A child of God is assured of his growth, even if it is the most difficult thing. God Himself is his Surety, thus he can be assured.

P.S. This video shows Sethia playing boxing with Pitik - and his grandmother getting more excited than him. :p
