A Busy Saturday

It was a long, long day. WWF had organised its 2nd overseas ride and we had the privilege to be part of it. The ride was meant to be a turnaround at Legoland. Daddy Lim was very excited. I was nowhere near bcos I melt under the sun. Once again, I noblely sacrifice myself, all in the name of looking after the kids. Somebody need to stay sane and alive, isn't it?

I did jio a few other cyclists to form the "send off" team. We rode off together with the pack from Frontier cc at freaking 4.45am. Yawn.
It was an easy spin to Kranji; the main pack still has a long way to go. We stopped for briefing at the Kranji MRT station.
Before the pack moved off. Byeeeee!
I rode back home with the "send off" party and ended off with a nice bfast. Hoho. Happy.
Daddy Lim's Legoland ride went very smoothly. There were constant updates.
Crossing the immigration.



Finally arriving at Legoland.


Of course the pack had to reward themselves with a good bfast on the way back.

Our day without Daddy Lim was equally busy. I was back home just in time to send the kids to the last day of the CNL church camp. The kids done their kindergarten studies with the church and had joined the camp for a few times since they left school. They had fond memories and had asked to go back when our schedule allowed.

We missed it the last year bcos Zaky wasn't keen to attend. He didnt want to have the eat the vegetable served during lunch. I know right, so epic. This year, he was good though he still hates vegetables. Lol. I was hesitant to send them actually bcos the camp was scaled towards younger kids and I was worried that ours would be bored. Moreover, I heard that most of their teachers had left.

The worry was unfounded and the kids had fun nevertheless. Their teachers were indeed missing from the camp but they still found a few familiar faces.

I drove (yes, yes, yes, though unsteadily) and dropped the kids at the camp before heading to the school to buy school books. I was grumbling earlier in the morning while tidying the book list and striking off items. I can't believe that Zaky's books ended up being more expensive than Lil Shauna's when he is the one receiving the hand-me-down books from jiejie. I hated it when we kept the books for 2 faithful years to realise that the school had decided to change to books by another publisher. Why like that?

I managed to sneak in an hour's nap before it was time to join the kids at the church for the closing ceremony. Daddy Lim was telling me how freaking hot it was while queuing at the immigration to return to Singapore. I can already imagine and all previous regrets about skipping the Legoland trip disappeared. Hoho.
He arrived home at about 1pm. Hello Tapir!
I arrived late at the church and the kids were waiting for me. There was the usual worshipping and sharing.
The kids wrote us letters during the camp.
Their favorite kindergarten teacher came back to lead the worship and they were overjoyed. The kids had grew so much that Lil Shauna is already taller than her teacher.
Lil Shauna said that she wanted to come back 2 years from now as a volunteer instead of camper. Nice!

We spent the next few hours nuahing at home while Daddy Lim continued to concuss and recover from the early morning and ride. It wasn't 6pm before he finally agreed to rise and join us from dinner.

The agreement was for Daddy Lim to take over the kids and bring them for Frozen2 movie while I have my free night with the ladies. Hohoho. This calls for another post. Hoho.
