Happy Mothers' Day

Before 11th May 14

I was feeling great about Mothers’ Day. This Mothers’ Day was extra special too bcos 6 years ago, we too celebrated Mothers’ Day and I gave birth to Lil Shauna the next morning, just like this year. Additionally, my kids love me and Daddy Lim acknowledges that I am a great mother. So Mothers’ Day should be celebrated with a big bang, right? I think I shouldn't expect anything less than presents, getting pampered on the day, treated like a queen (princess is alright too) and ends the day with fireworks across the sky. I am afterall the Mother, the all noble Mother.

After 11th May 2014

Nothing of the imagined happened. Bleh..
We spent Sunday as per any Sunday, filled with church and phonics class. I did get more hugs and kisses and handicraft work whenever I reminded the kids that it is Mothers’ Day. My office wall is now filled with cards and handicrafts and very much running out of space. When I told Lil Isaac in the morning that it was Mothers’ Day, he was all excited and told me that I should buy him a present bcos it is a Special Day. What!? Daddy Lim also worked until 3.30pm as per the last few Sunday. Zzzz… 

To make things worse, we didn't plan for activities after Lil Isaac’s phonics class and ended up roaming the mall before we headed home, thinking to go swimming and it had to rain. -.-“ We ended up scooting instead at the void deck. Then for some strange reason (ok, not that strange, I was chasing my K drama the night before), the sleepy bug was constantly bugging me and I was feeling extremely exhausted and sleepy since afternoon. A sleepy mummy and very actives kids cooped at home is not OK, even though it was just one evening. Luckily Daddy Lim took over the kids many times and I actually snoozed while begging for bedtime to come.

So, Mothers’ Day wasn't that great for me. Well, if I come to think of it, I supposed it is part of the noble mummy package, so I shouldn't complain too much. And I didn't do anything much for Popo too…. I was too focused on celebrating Mothers’ Day for Me, Me, Me!  Hers is part of the noble mothers’ package too. Lol.

So, Happy Mothers’ Day to all the noble mummies out there.
