my favourite family routine!


you know,
mother's day had passed&father's day is coming.
&i have not blogged about my mother's day.

well,
all of us went to have dim sum,
including darrell.

in th past,
daddy used to bring my family out for breakfast EVERY sunday.
my siblings&i were just in primary school.
it was a routine tht we find it troublesome.

ever since secondary school,
this routine stopped.
daddy said he has to work harder cause th
living standard in Singapore got higher.
thus, there's lesser warmth in th family,
&bickering became common.

daddy always say he's uneducated.
&his ways of showing us TLC,
tender loving care,
was by reprimanding us.
all of us hated it.
&we would talk back to him,
ALMOST all th time.

but on mother's day,
i realised how much i miss having breakfast with my family.
everyone's a grown up now.
we all have our lives&are no longer
dependent on our parents.

age's catching up with daddy.
i saw more grey hairs.
he used to ask me to help
him pluck those irritating grey hairs.
it's been ages since i've done tht.

daddy used to say he can kill an elephant with a punch.
yet now,
he's panting after a few more steps,
high blood pressure,
frequent headaches,
blah blah blah.

i miss those breakfast routine together.
i want it back!
it's not something i hate anymore.
it's my favourite family routine!

in fact, im yearning for it.

i love my daddy&mummy,
very very much.
