Monday with plenty of sun shine

The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. - Genesis 2:8

I woke up at 7am. Don't ask me why I keep waking up at this time. It started after daylight saving, maybe we should turn the clock forward and live with it so I won't feel so guilty when I wake my Mommy up for BM. Sometimes I have to admit that she is quite smart. Yes, Papa and Popo were not awake this morning but I thought a jump on them will help. My Mommy pulled me back and bribed me with her BM. It worked! (Sorry folks, I know that is my weakness.) I continued to stick around her until 8am when Papa's alarm clock rang. Great! I struggled out of bed and rushed out after Papa. Popo woke up shortly after us. My dear Mommy went back to bed when she knew Popo has waken and slept till the whole bedroom was filled up sunshine. Can you imagine that? No, my Mommy always said don't envy her coz it doesn't usually happen, she wants to make use of this time when Popo is around. Btw, Popo is leaving next week, therefore, Mommy reckons that she will not be able to sleep late once Popo leaves. Hm... I don't think she will stick to my schedule then (she always wins our battles), I might just need to sit on her head every morning till she gets up.

I missed the chance to go to the beach today with all the aunties and geges coz Popo is not interested. She said she doesn't like the strong breeze and also can't take the sun shine in mid afternoon. Oh, how can they deprive my time that I want to spend with my friends and waste it on their favourite pasttime. Well well, 2 against 1, moreover, I can't drive, what can I do? You won, Mommy! We went Costco to get some fish and Albertson to get some meat.

On our way home, I was almost falling asleep in my carseat when Mommy suddenly exclaimed, "Balls, Hengyue, look at that ball, another red ball." I responded to her exaggeration and joined her pointing at the balls. However, I really couldn't stay awake. My eyelids were almost closed when my mother shouted, "Bus, Hengyue, look at the bus." Ok, I started rolling my hands and sang The Wheel on the Bus for her. I was really tired, my eyes were almost shutting when my mother said, "Hengyue, look at the sea, I saw some sailboats, how many did you see?" My eyes were wide opened, glanced over the ocean and told her I saw 2 sailboats. Alright, that was the last verge, I can't tolerate anymore. My eyes were tightly shut till I reached home. I couldn't hear what my Mommy and Popo said anymore. Ha ha ha, Mommy, You are defeated this time. You really can't do much to me when your hands are on the steering wheels and your tricks don't work every time. ;)
