We have had lots of visitors.. since last weeks. Friends and family from far and near. And we are indeed touched.. by how everyone .. no matter how busy they are, they always make it a point to come visit Chloe .. our lil’ brat. And what’s more they are all so thoughtful… they always bring a gift for chloe.. and a thoughtful one too. Anyhow, as soon as the Goldens came yesterday to visit again.. Chloe remembers MAX..!!!! yup.. MAX..!!! and yes.. this was a gift from the Goldens.. and Chloe loves it.. !! she has been holding and reading the book the whole day. Thank you very much.. Max, Sam and Dave..!!
I Read every comment/s
I didn’t forget all my loyal blogger friends .. and i do read all my comments.. each and everyone of it. I had planned to reply to all your comments.. on Tuesday.. when good ole Blogsome went down..!! so i lost a whole day because of it.
And then i wanted to do it the next day.. Chloe got sick.. with hives, and a cold with runny nose. And when Chloe got better the next day.. i got sick..! yup..!! just my luck eh..??
And when i am sick.. i turn into a B.I.T.C.H!! i become lethargic.. and i whined.. and sigh alot..!! hhahahahaha!! But i figured we can’t stay healthy forever right..?? we gotta get sick sometime.. hah! and when we were up in Halifax a few weeks ago.. we didn’t catch anything from Uncle Budd who was sick like a dog.. and we had stayed 2 full days at his house. So ya.. it is time to get ill… and get it over with. Anyhow.. i digress.
So i will still reply to all your comments.. i’ve not forgotten each one of your kind words.. as soon as i get better ok. 😉 Thank you so much for taking time to leave a comment (Hah!! those who did not feel REALLY GUILTY .. like NOW..!!) hahahhaha!!
I’ll be right back..!
Summer Flowers with Love
Such a small gesture..but what a whole lot of love.. 😉 Chloe picked these flowers for me.. this evening.. while playing outside with Papa. She came rushing in.. and screamed.. “mom..!! mom..!!” while i was busy doing something.. but what a great feeling seeing that she picked flowers for me. I’m sure PB had something to do with it, if you could remembered.. my FIL loves picking flowers for the ladies in the house too.
What a change..??
Some old business friends and their daughter visited Chloe this afternoon.. and it was just so pleasant to see a change in having good kids .. play around your kids.
For once.. we ain’t worry.. when they are playing together.. like i was .. when there is a not so good kid in the store. Usually when a good kid is playing with Chloe.. i donch have to watch them like a hawk, I just let them go wild. I find that i instantly jumped into a very protective mode.. when i sense my kid might be bullied.. or in danger. Some might say it is not so good to be overly-protective. But how can i not..?? my brat has never been taught.. how to defend herself.. now fight back.. or punch..or pinch or spit.
Sometimes.. when i see kids taking chloe’s toys and insisting on breaking them.. or bringing them home.. i see in chloe’s reaction .. how helpless she was. Chloe would just stand there.. and donch know what to do. As her mother .. i won’t want to reprimand other ppl’s kid.. coz’ it’s just not in my position to do it. But when you get a good kid in.. you can see the difference.. they never scream.. they never shout.. they are amicable.. and they never insist on bringing the toys home.
Is it the kids..?? or the parents.. that needs to be taught.. the right way .. to bring the kids up..?? Is it the kid’s fault.. if the kid behave like a monster..?? why does some kids behave like monsters.. while others angels..??
I Swear
I swear my in-laws are the best..!! We are all having lunch right now.. PB, the brat and I.. and we are all eating lasagna.. made by my MIL for us last nite. In it.. my MIL cooked a half a portion without mushrooms because PB hates mushrooms.. and the other half of the lasagna dish filled with mushrooms. Not only did we eat .. at my in-laws house yesterday.. she “ta pow” for us .. so that we can have it for lunch today.. so I .. yours truly donch have to cook lunch for the brat .. and also something wholesome for PB .. since he has been suffering with his sandwich for a week now.
My FIL made fudge for Chloe to bring home.. as a treat for her today.. just before we left. You see lah..!! you say my in-laws good or not..??? I think i’m the luckiest daughter in law in the world lor..!!
Congrats .. Lynette
Long time customer/friend.. Lynette Hayward .. just came by this afternoon to show me her wedding pictures.. ! she got married in May .. in a very private ceremony. Hubby is from the United States.. and they met online.
Congrats .. Lynette..!! A blessed marriage to you .. you deserve all the happiness .. ! Join me friends.. and bloggers to wish Lynette.. and very blessed marriage.. !
I Kid you NOT!
When i told you all that my FIL grew Baby BoK ChoI for me .. in his greenhouse.. because i wanted so much to eat chinese vegies.. i kid you not..! this is the second batch of Baby BoK Choi i have had .. this month… from my FIL. My MIL brought this in .. yesterday together with some aparagus.
You tell me.. how can i not love my FIL & MIL .. !! even my own parents donch treat me so good. Seriously.. my parents didn’t treat me so well.. as to grow vegies for me.
I was telling my FIL a few weeks ago.. that we asians love shallot.. and that they were expensive to get here. So my FIL explained to me.. that the shallots seeds were ex.. therefore.. shallots are expensive.. but he would grow a few just for me.. as at TREAT.. 😉 Now you tell me.. how can i not love my FIL..!!
What good memory
Sometimes.. the brat amazes me to no end. This morning.. while getting her ready.. for work.. i was changing her .. but because she wanted some other clothings.. she opened her wardrobe .. and started looking for what she wants to put on. There hanging in her closet… was Belle’s clothings.. that i’ve bought .. and yet to send out (yah.. i’m a procrastinator).
The brat picked up Belle’s presents.. and said.. “this is Belle’s..!! i’ll hold onto it for her. “ Isn’t that amazing..?? i only told her once.. that they are for Belle… and she remembered it.. !!! And she said it so clearly.. there was no mistakenly .. that she had said something else.
Anyhow.. Chloe said.. she was gonna bring the clothes to Belle .. to her home.. hhahaha!! So Vien.. Chloe is on her way.. 😉

Dampened Spirit?
I should.. but i am not gonna to..! Because i’m a survival..!
As you all know.. i went to Halifax for a medical check up for immigration. The doctor called this afternoon, saying that my chest x-ray came back with a shadow .. that the technicians cannot say or determined what it is. I have to go for another x-ray at another angle.. to verify .. that i do not have TB.
I was really quite confident about my medical check-up to be honest with you.. but any phone calls from the doctor.. giving you news like that.. suxs..!!
And nope.. my spirits are not dampened.. ! i’ve always been in good health..! never smoke in my life.. nor drink.. ! and for me to have TB.. i think i will prolly strike lottery first .. before that happens..! I haven’t been outta Canada.. for the last 3 yrs.. and if i have TB.. i must have gotten it here right..?? therefore if i do.. Canada.. better take care of me.. muahahhahahaha!!
Well.. i’ll wait for the doctor’s requisition to come in for another test.. and we will go from there. In the meantime.. please put in a kind word for me.. to the One up there.. please.. 😉
