AN is 5! Part 2

April happens to be Mr Liow's brother in law and younger niece's birthday month as well, so his sister suggested a dinner together on Saturday. It was a last minute decision and we would have 2 baby bashes in the afternoon, so we couldnt bring AN over earlier.

MIL asked me what our plans were for the day when she realised we would also be having other parties to attend. I senses frustration and she proved it by rolling her eyes and walking away after commenting: "You guys always don't plan things properly."

Hello! The baby bashes were confirmed weeks before. His sister only suggested a dinner together few days ago. What did u mean by "bad planning"? What is wrong with us going for baby bashes before dinner together? Dinner happens in the evening right??

What was she upset about?

Can't be bothered.

Anyway, we brought her and the kids over after the baby bashes. AN had been looking forward to meet her cousins. She longs to see them all the time. Ryona had grown up to be a lovely teenager and watchful big sister! Much as I wish AN remains little for as long as possible, I wish too, that she will grow up to be a confident, open and kind person. Most importantly, God-fearing.

Mr.Liow and I then went to get the cake. He had been aching for 2 days since the volleyball match on Thursday evening and we went to get a massage before making our way over to the restaurant. It didn't help much, ache was still there.

Dinner was fine. I didn't want to bother much about somebody...she really thinks she's queen. Someone planned for a bus, bought everything needed asked even had to cook, all these for Qing Ming. All SHE had to do was call to find out what time to meet and SHE got extremely upset. SHE insisted organiser should call to inform her. It didn't matter who called who, did it? Organiser said to meet at 7.30 am in Bedok. She got very upset and started raising her voice at the other party saying that was early and SHE was coming from Sengkang. I was pretty sure the organiser was offended and true enough, the call ended. SHE started complaining about how the organiser rudely replied her: "7.30 too early. Then what time you want?"

I would have asked the same. You are going to 扫墓. From Bedok to Chua Chu Kang, it would probably be 8.30 am or later with the traffic, because lots of people would be there for the same thing. For stuff like that, it's been tradition to reach early. My own family meet before the sun comes up. Just because SHE's in Sengkang, far from meetinging point, tradition should be abolished?

Call yourself an elder.

Moving on...

AN enjoyed herself though. She got to blow the candles a second time. ER attempted to help too. So cute. He watched and learned from the day before and he clapped while attempting to sing the birthday song this time as well.

The day ended soon after because the kids were all tired.
