And My Journey Thru' Breast Cancer
We won’t buy flowers on occasions like this .. because they are way too expensive. So the mother-in-law allowed the brat to pick some flowers for me.. just before we left for home. But she needs 2 of course.. instead of just one.. because one is for herself… muahahahah!!
She didn’t know how to break the tulips.. so grampie came over to help her pick two of them.
My in-laws are very outdoorsy people .. and so is Richard my brother-in-law.. but PB and I donch get to do alot of outdoor stuff.. because we have a business to look after (that’s our excuse .. and we are sticking by it). Although we are not the outdoorsy type.. we hope to let Chloe try everything we can get her to. But chloe being chloe.. she is afraid of everything.. and wouldn’t even go into the canoe. .even though it wasn’t in the water during the weekend.
After much cajoling.. she agreed to go in .. sitting on Papa’s lap. What wuss..! muahhaha!!
Good in-laws are very important to your relationship to your other half. Why do i say that..?? because all women loves to complain. Now.. now..! donch tell me you donch..! I complained alot.. if i am upset.. when something does happen to the brat because I am upset.. and can get very emotional.
And you see .. i would MSN my in-laws.. and tell them .. what is going on.. and in the meantime.. i would be going on a rant..! Yes.. literally .. a rant. But my in-laws.. especially my MIL .. she NEVER patronized me.. she just agree with me.. without trashing my other half. And let me go on and on .. for hours. And neither does she repeat what i said to her to the other half.. thus never causing a friction in between us. I’m seriously wondering if it makes a difference..with having an “ang moh” in laws. Had i married an asian..?? would it still be the same..??? What do you think..??
Everyone knows that i have a pretty good relationship with my in-laws. They indulge me.. and let me do whatever I want. Had i married a chinese family .. my in-laws wouldn’t have allowed me to say .. “yo-yo” as a greeting to them. But my FIL is my true hero.. for those who donch know.. this blog’s name derived from the fact that my FIL grew Baby BoK Choi for me.. in his green house.. because I missed home so much. Yesterday.. i had my first baby bok choi for this year… all organic.. and all leafy and juicy. How can you not love this man.. right..??
It’s truly wonderful to see some tulips already growing at my in-laws garden today. The weather isn’t too kind to us every year.. and see the flowers blooming makes one’s heart happy. When they are fully bloomed .. they get really colorful. Unfortunately, I donch have a green thumb.

We bought the scooter for the brat yesterday.. and since it was a display one. .we got 25% discount for it.. so we ended paying like $15 .. which in my opinion was a great price. But grampie is paying for it.. muahhahahhaha!! yes.. we are pretty smart .. when it comes to buying things.. not only we buy them really cheap.. on discount.. but we also make Grampie feel so loved… muahahhaha!!
A few weeks ago, my dear father-in-law said. .that the brat speaks more like I .. and it was understandable .. coz’ PB has got his mouth full of gold. So please help me out by taking a vote as to whether.. the brat speaks like me or like any Canadian.
The mother-in-law is going to watch Stars-on-Ice live in Halifax this week. I think she is going with her line-dancing friends. I hear there are 6 going. .and they are staying at the Marriott. I wished i could go to.. but work and of course the brat does not permit me to. Well.. at least i know I will be getting some chinese food, she just called from the Asian grocery store this morning and i placed a small order. I have an awesome mother-in-law and a great Aunt.
While others have birthday cakes for their birthday.. my mother-in-law baked me a coconut cream pie instead, plus got candles some more ok..! They even sang me a birthday song. My birthday.. was like a week ago.. but they still remembered.. and did something special for me. Thank you .. Mum..! yer the best..!
We didn’t go visit my in-laws the week on my birthday.. because not only was PB sick.. so was i. Well.. guess what my in-laws didn’t forget my birthday..and i was taken by surprised.. when i had a coconut pie .. and candles.. to blow out yesterday.. when we visited. And i thought they had forgotten by now. So sweet eh..?
