Just Being A Mum

I suddenly got this idea. So I will just write it short before I get on with my house chores..

Mother's Day is just around the corner. Have we ever thought of what to do or get for our mum? Well, my mum is a very conventional one. Even if we don't get anything for her, she won't mind a bit.

I don't remember there was Mother's Day when I was young. So we siblings didn't do anything or celebrate at all. Until now, we don't celebrate for my mum too.

So I was thinking...Should I do something for my mum? My mum is not with me right now. She is at her hometown. Maybe I should just go back to see her and surprise her.

Have we ever stop and ponder about our mum? I guess we should. What are you going to do to surprise your mum??

Mum, I love you! 

But it seems awkward for me to say it face-to-face. What about you?

    It is just not my upbringing to say "I love you mum" to her and I don't think she is comfortable hearing that. My spending time with her and my concern for her shows my love for her. She has a special place in my heart that no one can replace.

    it seems like many just celebrate just because it's an occasion that actually defeat the purpose behind..

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
