Upset

I was upset with Cherylin 2 Sats ago.  She didn't want to go home with us that day.  Instead she wanted to go for dinner with mum.  No matter how i coaxed her (bring her to baby shower on sat, bring her to imm/jurong point on fri), she simply refused.  I can't help but felt upset.  Upset that she didn't want mummy.  Hence, i told her and mum that i'll not be picking her up on sat. 

On sat, we went to YC's ex-colleague's baby shower as plan, with Shawn.  Got a missed call from mum at 2.30pm.  I returned the recall.

Mum: What time are you coming over to pick her?
Me: I'm not going to pick her up.

Mum asked again and this time i replied "at night".

Mum:  Then I shall bring her to Suntec City.
Me:  Don't bring her out.

Mum:  But i want to go out.  I'll bring her to your place at night.
Me:  Ok, then you bring her loh.

Then, mum said something that made me sob..

Mum:  She's is just a kid, when are you getting angry with her?
Me:  Nowadays, she always doesn't want to go home.  Yesterday, she refused to go home again.. (i was sobbing then)

Mum:  Who said she didn't want to go home.  She had been asking "What time is mumy coming to fetch me?" 

I kept silence then and felt bad for treating my darling this way.  Really hope what she did was part of her being just a kid.

We went to Tampines One for shopping after the baby shower (since we were already in the east).  Picked Cherylin up at 9pm+.  Was so happy to see her.  I asked her "Do you miss mummy"?  She said "Yes" and my heart melted.

Teeth

Shawn had only 4 teeth for the longest period of time.  Think till he was 15th month old.  Now, at 19th month plus, he has 6 on top and 6 at the bottom.  Compared to others who already have a full set of teeth, Shawn is a little behind time.  Nevertheless, mummy is still happy to see all his little pearlies popping out as days go by. 

IT Products

Bought a 500gb portable hard disk from Comex at $129.  Gosh, prices of IT products really drop like nobody's business.  One and a half year ago, I bought a 160gb portable hard disk at $169.  You can see how great the difference is.

Memory cards these days are also very affordable.  I still recall when I had my first digicam in 2004, a 256mb compact flash card cost abt $90.  Today, I can easliy get a 8gb card at less than half the price.
