Daddy Lim's bro called last night to inform that he's taking a short holiday (Tue to Fri) paranoid about something happening to her while they are not around. She was still fine the last time they went on a holiday without her as my FIL was still around then. So Daddy Lim was asked to call MIL frequently to check on her and assure her that things will be fine.
Daddy Lim asked if I am OK to invite my MIL to stay over for the next few nights until they are back. Well, I am not reluctant, but I am not celebrating her stayover too. I am just worried about conflicts. I have heard and seen too many of real life MIL and DIL conflicts and when there is too much contact, conflicts are bound to arise. Still, she's family and it will do her good. Thus, we invited her. Daddy Lim was appreciative, just like how I was to him when my mum or sis needed a roof over their head and he was kind to let them stay over. He was even OK with giving up the computer room to my sis when the maid comes. :) Muaks Pappy.
He called Nainai last night to invite her over. Nainai must be super desperate bcos she grabbed the offer IMMEDIATELY. Despite the fact that she has to sleep on mattress (we only have one bed at home), has to sleep with the maid in the baby's room, has no nice comfort like her own house, she was more than willing to jump at the offer and hurried off to pack her bag after our call.
She was trying to tell us something and called us at 11pm last night but we missed her call. She even called us at 5+am this morning. Duno what she was trying to say. She mentioned something about heavy bags. Looks like she's all set to stay over. Hohoho.
I am still worried, but I think it just takes getting used to. Lil Shauna will also be glad to spend time with nainai. If all works well, we can invite her to stay over often in the future. That can relieve my mum of some time and responsibilities too. :)

Updates: Nainai decided not to stay over as quickly as she decides to stay over. -.o" Haiz, we women are just so fickle minded. Lol! I think she's probably worried about disturbing us and it is not the most convenient (for her) to stay over. So, she lugged the bag of clothes back after lugging them to work. That was exactly wat happened to my mum when she "ran away" from home. I wonder if I will be like that when I grow old... I think so. Lol!
Nainai says that she will be happy so long as we called to check on her every night and we have done so last night. Lil Shauna gets a chance to talk to nainai on the phone too and she is such a joy giver. :) Daddy Lim asked again if Nainai wanted to stay over but she didnt accept our offer. That's for now. Maybe one day...
