Happie Mothers' Day

This is my 1st Mothers' Day wor.
But I dun feel any more or less special leh. Chey.

I reminded Daddy Lim that it is MY day today. Well, he asked me what I wanted and it also earned me a few mouthful of his wanton mee. Hmm... no special needs or wants leh. I was just joking recently that maybe I should go hide on Mothers' Day and leave the baby with Daddy Lim. But I decided otherwise, else he might not live to spend Fathers' Day. Hohoho.

Daddy Lim told me that it is not easy to earn Mothers' Day. I totally agree. Let's see... what does it mean to be a Mother. Top 10 list.

1. To be able to sleep on 1/5 of the bed bcos the hb took 1/2 and the rest by the baby and yet not flipped and squash the baby (training required);
2. To wake up at the slightest sound/ stir made by the baby (several times on certain nights) and to wake up to feed/ comfort/ change/ pat/ position (list go on) the baby in the night and yet be able to go to work the next day;
3. To have the energy to chase after the crawling/ walking/ climbing baby even after a hard day at work;
4. To still have plenty of love for the baby despite her screaming/ crying fits;
5. To be able to carry the baby in one hand and do whatever required with the other (training required too);
6. To be able to change poo poo filled and smelly diaper for the flipping baby while the Daddy has escaped 10 miles away from the room;
7. To clean off disgusting poo poo/ puke/ mucus and kill cockroaches/ bugs (latter not tested and proven for me);
8. To battle with the baby during feeding time;
9. To understand/ guess correctly what the still-cannot-talk baby wants; and
10. To be able to have the day brightens up bcos of the baby even after having to deal with stupid people the whole day.

Hohoho. I feel so noble to be a Mummy.
Happie Mummy Day to me. I think I deserve it.
