And i just realized that the post i wrote on 8Jul is STILL PUBLISHING!! Like what?! I can't retrieve the post via my phone, and logging in using computer, what's left of that day's post is 2 sentences. This is crappy.
Anyways..so recount my Monday. Is like any other normal day with a trip back to my mom's. Mom got to spend a while with JCH before she heads for work. Got a surprise from my youngest brother when he dishes out 2 slices of yummy carrot cake!! Tsktsk mind you, is angmoh carrot cake, not chye tau kuey ok. Refer picture at end of post. Is there any way to insert picture in the middle of the post? Guess i need to catch up on this topic. Ok back to angmoh carrot cake. What is so precious about this cake is that (1) it is not as readily available as say mango mousse cake and (2) it is really not easy to find delicious ones. The last that i tasted good carrot cake was like, years ago during my intern at a mnc bank and found this little piece of delight along Waterloo Street! The sweet part about these two slices? My brother had a hand in making those yummies! Awww~~~its truly delicious. If any of you reading this is interested to try, head on to The Rooftop at Holland Village. Needless to say, the little eatery is found at the rooftop of the building that houses a 24hr Cold Storage by the road side. So yep..Monday went on as normal as it can get.
And this week, it seems, is full of celebrations. Just completed my eye brow trimming at Shu Uemura, followed by meeting an agent cos my friend told her must talk to me and share, and then meeting (again) my mom and brothers for dinner. JCH has been totally cooperative today. He was asleep while we were on our way for my brow trimming session, and woke up just before i got started. And throughout the whole session, he was just so quiet in his limo, looking at mommy getting her brows trimmed and at the young lady walking about trimming my brows. Even the Shu girl was expressing her surprise at his "coolness" about everything. Good boy!! Then after that, whisk him off to be fed, and changed (he pooed like second time when i was changing him lo..the first being at home in the morning) before heading to Kim Gary to meet the agent. Even the agent was surprised at his "coolness" and ability to just sleep on his own without being cooed at. We were just chatting and JCH just slept. So see, it was really best performance today! I'm just really thankful for him being such a good boy today.
Met my family after that and walked around. Somehow, he was a little notti in that he refused to be carried by my youngest brother today! In fact he is alot more well behaved when placed in the stroller than when carried on hands! Hahaha..its totally just funny, but good.
When we reached home, JCH just kept smiling and laughing at hubs, even when hubs wasn't playing with him! I think he missed daddy alot today. So for the night, after wiping him down and giving him his last bottle, its daddy time until he falls asleep. Thank goodness for this bcos i can then get to do my mask! Hehehe. I need to finish up my masks before they expires next year.
One point of thought before i end this post. Separation anxiety..from the parent (especially mom) not from the kid. The agent was sharing with me how she couldn't put her heart and mind at ease when she first sent her first born to school, and how she would pop by the school to spy on her kid without the kid's knowledge. I can sympathise with her bcos i have alot of friends telling me one week or even one month before their maternity leave ends, how they are already missing their babies and they wished not to work. And how during work they miss their babies so much that they would secretly look at their babies' photos and/or videos, and i would end up counting down to the end of work day when they'll all try to fly home at lightning speed, probably wishing teleporting is a workable reality. I guess i will really feel this separation anxiety in totality when JCH starts his preschool. But its all part and parcel of growth right?
