Today was as hectic as other school days. If I had a built in meter, the gauge would show that I have reached the last bar of my daily energy level, i.e. the zombie level. This happens on most working days. I often wondered if the children realised this too, until one day, I asked Khing if she knew what my repeated "Mm hmm" meant. She looked at me straight in the eye and replied, "It means you are not listening?"
I suppose they are entitled to their own opinions too. Wan once told me that she knew my "Maybe later" meant "Never" and "We will decide after we hear what Papa says" meant we would do it my way.
Chien and I went shopping after school to get the OMITH's (only male in the house) birthday gift and a cake. Wan and Khing are busy making him cards and flowers (fabric) now. Eating out is out of question on weekdays. I recall Chien getting a piece of paper to write a contract to eat out before I changed my mind.
Everyone is looking forward to dinner tonight.
Happy birthday, OMITH and Joshua!!!
