In His Time

Yesterday was my mom’s 53rd birthday. Yes, she is young. She got married at 19yo and got me at 20yo. So you can guess my age already huh?

When I told my children that “Today is Mama’s birthday.” This is what they told me, “Mommy, I want to give Mama Angpow.” To my children, birthday gift is Angpow, not Toys because toys they can get almost everytime they go shopping with me!

Well, every year I give my mom’s Angpow too. Easier that way, she can buy what she like with the cash. So this year, I split my Angpow to 3 packets for each of my children. I wonder whether she will use her Angpow money to invest in ademco security product. You know lar, she is getting older and alone at home with her grandchildren during working hour.

Upon reaching my mom’s, they stood in front of my mom and sang her the Happy Birthday song then gave the Angpows to their Mama. Then each of them hug, kiss and told her that they love her. I am so proud of them and my mom too. When my dad returned home my mom proudly told him what her grandchildren did to her.

That night all of us went for dinner at Portuguese Settlement. All my siblings and my aunt with her 4 children which my mom used to babysit when they were babies except my 1st sister who is teaching in Kuching .

My sis made him cry by telling him that the fish is eating my mom’s finger!
