Mother's Day Thoughts

Though Mother's Day has passed... but I have some thoughts... to pen down...

Prior that, I did contemplate to write something and wishing for all the mommies Happy Mother's Day as mother really deserved this day but, work caught me up... and didnt bother also after the weekend, since Mother's day is still not very memorable for me as my two girls are still "naive" about it.

Though this is my 2nd mother's day, still I havent felt this is my day, like my birthday or Valentine's Day. However my mother was quite enthusiastic. I am not bother whether I will receive flowers but when I gave her three stalks of carnation, she asked : “ 那你呢？”, I replied : “ 我不用啦！” she then asked : “ 你有礼物吗？” I think hard and Yes, I do have...

On that saturday my hubby came telling me : " Tomorrow is Mother's Day, I haven get you pressie, I thought of giving you "angbao" but since you are buying the WMF cooking set, I'll pay for it. Hee... or you want "angbao"? $10 dollar? "

Of course I am taking the cooking set! Now sale... 7-pc for $127... and WMF is a good brand. Im gona overhaul those Teflon cooking set at home, after hearing so much of Teflon adverse effect on health. Stainless steel is still better... Anyway this is an surprise, I am not expecting pressie from the hubby.

When we were choosing carnation for our mother, my hubby asked : " You want one for yourself too? " and I answered : " NO ! I dont like carnation."
Hubby: " Oh, there are some rosy overthere but not very fresh."
I was thinking it will be nice that he can just pick one and present to me later : " Dear, this is for you..." but he didnt...

I am not expecting big or expensive, just a little thought, some sincere... am I too high expectation ??? Im not really excited about the surprise... after all this "years"... I felt that everything is so practical... so unromatic... I ever asked the hubby, can he make some effort like what he did during courtship, his answer : " Lazy lah "
