2300 hrs

Salam my dearest princess,

How’s your day today? Have you encountered any fun and enjoyable event? Indeed I have spoken to your dad that he and you had spending day with nanny to a wedding. It was very good for you went out and have blessed day, which at once you be more fortunate to have people loved you around.

Mummy had a very fine day indeed with the very impressive progression by the crew of PGS. We have completed line no 6 and will be shooting the line no 7 as soon as they have made the turn, which will take 3-4 hours. I pray everyday hoping the operation would turn out good and well hence I could go home earlier and see you and daddy. Today I have not had my breakfast as I did pump my milk as usual since I woke up late I missed my breakfast. By the way, as the courtesy of the chef, I had a chance to take a cereal for breakfast.

As usual, very dull and quite boring for me without you around, I had chitchat with the gentlemen and surprisingly they are all from various countries. I rather thought they are Norwegian or British, as the company is wholly owned by UK and Norway Company. But I thought wrong there are some fellows from Thailand, Canada, Scotland and I understand the mechanic crew has been hired from Philippines. With the great pleasure heard a lot of stories from them when they have talked about their family, their wives, kids, experiences in seismic acquisition, and their passion in their job. As one of Canadian fellow, as he saw a picture of you in my Macbook, was telling me he is missing his son as well however it’s pretty hard for him since his son taken care by his mom. With some circumstances, they hardly meet. Poor fellow.. and this is where I think I am real blessed to have you both, ur dad and you yourself my dear.

My love Sophie

Right now right at this moment, they already have stop shooting and wait to shoot again not after they have completed turning. I am actually waiting to make a call to your dad and I’m quite sleepy waiting to go to bed but not until I make a love letter to you. J I must go now my dear child. I’ll write to you soon. I miss you so much. Kisses..
