My cute mummy ...

My cute mummy ...

I'm simply amused. Simply amused at how cute my mummy can be, haha.

Mum has always been doted by all of us, her children, as much as she doted on us when we were much younger. Whenever we can, we will bring her out, or buy her stuff, but I guess with an additional member in the household now, she felt some competition for attention =)

Puji came close to end January, and knowing that her birthday was in March, sis and I decided to spring a little surprise for her - getting her a cake and buying her presents. And guess what?? Gee ... mummy's jealous ... haha. She kept saying we never celebrate her birthday for her and here we are, doing surprises for other people, haha.

Well, the truth of the matter is - we DID celebrate mum's birthday for her, and every year without fail. You see, my mum's a traditional and fairly superstituous person. She has never celebrated birthdays all her years and for her, if she suddenly had a birthday celebration, she might not be able to receive such blessings and had misfortune falling on her instead. Therefore, my siblings and I decided that everytime during her birthday (she celebrates lunar birthday), we will bring her out for a meal, using the excuse that we haven't eaten out for a long while, or so-and-so restuarant has some special dinner packages, etc.

In fact, mum's birthday falls on a Sunday this year and we wanted to bring her out for a meal but she said she have not quite recover from her earlier surgery and she didn't want to. She suggested cooking nasi lemak instead. And since she was so game, and knowing how she wanted and was hoping for all my siblings to be back, especially my brother, we had everyone come back - SPECIALLY for her nasi lemak lunch =) She was happy, definitely, needless to say, haha. She perhaps have guessed as much the "coincidence" of this arrangement. In fact, the next day, she told me, "Actually yesterday was my birthday," so you see, that cuteness and that childishness in mummy is showing, heehee.

Of course, I teased her and said what a coincident that everyone was back the previous day, and how it must have been a great day for her then. She reacted with all smiles =)

Oh mummy, mummy, my cute and adorable mummy ... she can be so cute and adorable, and so child-like. I love you, mum =)
