Me and my mom had just finished out lunch.
As mention in my previous blog, I bought my mom to my church grand opening!
After we had lunch and I've shown her around the church, the children church, decided to bring her out shopping. We went to Somerset to look for my dad as it was during his break-time and had a cuppa super sweet milk tea. Urgh...
After my dad went off to have his nap, mom mentioned to go to Bugis. So we went there to buy some stuffs, real cheap and I bought her to NYDC at Bugis Junction. The last time we had NYDC was when I was still in poly and worked there previously.
Mom had quite a bit of questions about Church, my friends, God and all the happenings. I was really happy to be able to share with her this portion of my life. I guess it made her feel included too.
After the church opening, yesterday I bought her along for our "Hairy Crab" session with some of my church friends. She waited quite a long time, almost 2 hours as church ended pretty late. Thank God she wasn't very unhappy 'bout waiting.
They are really hairy! Won't go for second rounds...
I still prefer my dad's Chilli Crabs
Satisfied after conquering the hairy crabs...
Not a word of complaint from Mom throughout the whole session of makan-ing. Guess things went pretty well. My mom has been so busy working previously I guess it was a good thing she's taking a break now. At least we can spend more time together.
Just the other day, I was watching TV with mom. The topic on the show was about being humourous. On the show they showed a short MCQ and depending on the answer chosen, it will tell on how humourous you can be. It was pretty funny and my mom scored a 80% while I only scored half of it.
When I told my mom that I'm quite funny with my friends around, then she say how come I not funny with her. I replied it has to depend on the situation that allows me to be funny mah, if nothing unusual happen, not easy leh. Hahaha...
Then my mom said she always remembered one occassion when I was still young, less than 7 years old. How I've made her laugh.
In our previous flat in Ang Mo Kio, she mention that my brother's photo and mine were hanging on the wall. With the same frame and the same size. One day, suddenly my photo dropped.
Instead of the usual reactions from people such as, "Not hung properly, the nail is loosed, etc". My mom said my reaction to her was.
"Aiyah, must be I'm too heavy". (I was a heavy baby since I was born)
Hahaha... We had a great laugh after she told me that.
Guess my humour has been with me all along, just that I had lost it along the way while growing up. Time to get it back! Hehehe...
Mothers can remember many of the little little things we've said, we've done. Hope the memories she'll have in the future would be more of the happy and lesser of the unhappy.
Thank you Daddy in Heaven for my Mom. Bless her with good health and happiness and love her too. In Jesus name I pray.
Amen...
