Sigh!

Mum broke the news last night that my sis intends to bring her and dad to Hong Kong on the 1st week of Dec. Could see from her expression that she's very excited about the trip, but on the other hand, she's worried that I could not cope with my confinement during her absence.

Frankly, I was a little affected when I heard the news. I could have taken for granted thinking that mum will always be there for me when I need her, so didn't really bother to think too much. And thanks for my sis to have thought of such a brilliant idea to bring the whole family away during my crucial period in life. I reasoned with sis that I prefer mum to be around my side during my confinement cos' I feel "safer" to have mum around to give me advices and support when I need. Sis on the other hand felt that I will be in good hands since I've already engaged a confinement lady to help. But but...it's not that I dun trust the confinement lady, I'm just worried that something might crop up last minute (you dunno when Murphy's Law will strike) and I need mum's expertise as contingency.

There again, I also dun wish to deprive mum's opportunity to go on a trip. I mean, she has slogged her life for us, for the family, and it is only right that she should go and relax before she's tied down looking after another baby.

Sigh. I'm really torn. I will leave it to mum and respect her decision. The last thing I want is the MIL coming to meddle with my stuff when my mum's away.

Mummy mummy...can you not go Hong Kong this time??

*pout*
