Mum's The Best
It has been part of a routine to call my mum at the end of the day to "report" to her on my daily activities (if she's busy to pop by my place) and last night was no exception. Was telling her how yucky the food the CL has cooked and the bad sleeping habit baby Garreth has developed for the past 3 days.
This morning, she turned up at my place at 9.30am with piping hot XO tonic soup, black bean pork ribs soup and my favourite black soy sauce chicken with ginger. Dad secretly told me that mum has creeped out of the bed as early as 5.30am to go the market to buy all the raw ingredients and prepared all these food for me cos' she's worried that I'm not getting enough nutritious from the miserable food the CL has cooked for me.
I is so touched that I wanna weep lor. Mum is always the best and she will always be the best. And I know that as long as she's around, I will always be dependent on her when comes to such situations. Having just been "promoted" as a mum myself, I also start to really understand the hardship of motherhood. It will be a long journey as long as Garreth boy is still little, but I strive to be a good mummy just like my own mummy.
We had a visitor yesterday afternoon. It was raining cats and dogs but SY still came all the way to pay us a visit, with 2 bottles of Ribena and 2 cups of my favourite Meiji yogurt. Not sure if it's becos' of her, baby Garreth did manage to catch some afternoon sleep during the most difficult part of the day. We did some catch ups and I did some bitchings about the current CL (I need to vent my pent-up frustrations la!), and SY left in the evening and gave a big angbao for Garreth. Aiyo..felt so bad, already told her to just come with the Ribenas but still she pushed the angbao to us. I hope she will turn up at the Baby Shower next Saturday with her old man, looking forward to take some pictures with them for keepsake...SY, if you're reading this, pls come ok?
Oh gosh...mum's XO herbal soup is sure power...my head is feeling a little light now and I guess I better take a nap before the little rascal wakes up and refuse to sleep thereafter!
