Play Date


After 2 weeks of torrential rain and dreary skies, I couldn't be happier to see the sun was out in the morning! There was a swim date planned with a cute little girl!

The sky held bright. We pumped up the floats and took them down to the pool. So glad that after the initial howls of protest, the lil Missy was all gurgles and giggles in the pool. She protested when we had to stop the paddling and dry her before her skin turned into a dried prune!

Lil Missy was very obviously the Princess for the day. Total diva. We were at her beck and call. "Tilt my float, Aunty Imp!", "Go away, scary human with grey goggles!", "I want to go there please!" "Give me the bear please Aunty V!" Not that we minded. She was quite the angel- didn't fuss, didn't scream, ran around on her own and allowed us to chat the day away. She signed alot to let us know what she wanted. She signed many many "Please". So sweet lah. Exhausted, she finally fell asleep. While she napped, her mommy's shoulders got a bit of rest.

Come twilight, it was time to feed the Lil Missy. Y said she could do easy with whatever's available in the kitchen. The helper brought out the stuff that Y needed. The mommy whipped up the tot's evening meal in an amazing 15 minutes. She cooked oats with lettuce, honey tomatoes, eggs and added a dash of pepper and a freshly plucked basil leaf.

Y also brought delicious homemade muffins. While we munched at muffins, we also eyed lil Missy's dinner most expectantly. It looked quite droolicious. The mommy said it was going to be really bland. But it wasn't! When the little one decided not to eat anymore, I swooped in and added a little bit of sea salt and ate up all her leftovers. Heeeeeeeeee.
