Mumsie's Christmas Decor

Every year mumsie loves to decorate her house according to the seasons's theme ie Christmas or Chinese New Year.. (Can't remember when I started this...
must be quite some years back) Wonder if any of mumsie's little ones remember???
That's why mumsie likes to collect some of her decor from different parts of the world. The guy above is from America....(about 10 years + ago...???) Press the little red button at the bottom of his feet and he can sing non-stop...Santa is coming to town!!!
Mumsie got some of these 'fellas' from Japan


This is one of mumsie's 'PRIZE COLLECTION' (mumsie's favourite) This litte guy can play any of the 12 piano (chirstmas carols) music pieces at the side pockets...just pick any piece at random and he will play it beautifully .....

Got some of these from Alaska and the tree came from Hokaido (Japan) The angel and the little snow man can 'churn' out carol pieces when you
twirl them...
It took mumsie quite some time to put these up the stairs but it is worth it...a few pieces came from JB Metro and quite a bit from Paris!!...
And that is why whenever we go on our yearly holidays overseas mumsie tried to sneak something back...(Before daddy can say anything nasty!!!!!)

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

This afternoon mumsie took mumsie's mumsie and sisters to lunch...YES they're down in JB enroute to Paris...leaving @ 12 MN from S'pore!! Mumsie and Dadda were supposed to go with them but back out @ the very last minute cos it's a 2 week trip and we couldn't take off for such a long period...since we only just took off to Japan and we did spent quite a bit of time off with
cheh-cheh when she was back.. Anyway we were in Paris not so long ago with Cheh-cheh....and I think Dadda gotta see all that he wanted to see then and mumsie did shop shop and shop in Paris
(though I don't think I'll mind not shopping again...as I told everybody it's a sin not to shop in Paris!!)
Another reason for mumsie to back out of this trip is....none of mumsie's little ones is going... Mumsie's main objective to go on hols is..so that we can spend more time with our little ones..
where we eat together....play together only short of sleeping together.
Well maybe next year we may be able to rope in a bigger crowd...including mumsie's other siblings as well....Not only KFC but also the crowd from Penang and the crowd that were in KFC'S house that wonderful night . NOW HOWSABOUTDAT??? Maybe those in UK (Suk Ye) too .. start planning now !!!!!
This is for you, Suk Ye...maybe there's a chance for U to get in touch with them...
I did mention that I'll let you know of their whereabouts...but also told them that you've just started working... and very like yee-yee and your mah-mah...'.don't disturb her!!!' were their comments.

Whose fault is it???

Wonder if any of mumsie's little ones remeber this incident...it was Daniel's...?? 10 or 11 years old birthday and mumsie printed invitation cards with time, date, and address on it inviting his class mates to his birthday party...Well during 'his time' and as he was studying in the 'usual school' his classmates are 75% Muslims ! So mumsie took great 'pains' to make sure that we cater muslim food...and all disposables plates, spoons ect ect. We even rope in a 'Muslim satay man' and had the party in the afternoon so that it won't be held 'too near bed time'
AND GUESS WHAT ??? When that day comes NOT ONE OF HIS CLASS MATES TURN UP!!!
Only one little boy from his church's cathechesim's class came...WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!
I'm sure Daniel must be feeling very very very bad...and must be wondering why why why..
The only reason mumsie can think of is....those children's parents were worried that we might serve their children 'non-halal' food....(see all this talk about polarisation and our children are not mixing enough and that in UNI those fellas are not mixing enough blah blah...stems from the very beginning....their upbringing and their parents teaching!!!)

Lucky thing mumsie was able to rope in the clinic nurses that day and they came and celebrated Daniel's birthday...and mumsie was able to be a good MC...dancing around and pushing them to join in Musical chairs... staute dancing....ect ect...gotta to finish all mumsie's 'prepared prizes'

Well this is a lesson to be learnt ...who to invite for your children's birthday parties!!! Until today whenever mumsie read in the newspapers that the 'people in the govt. dept.' wants to know why the children in schools and uni tend to group around their own races... mumsie was so tempted to write this incident to 'readers write' for those people to figure out whose fault is it?????

DADDY O !

After working in the Hospital for some time we tend to pick up quite a lot of things...well most nurses will tell you that by just observing they will be abe to tell whether the patients are 1st time parents or not..
1st time 'daddy' will accompany their wifes right into labour room and stay with them till their
little one arrives

2nd time 'daddy' will accompany their wifes up to the labour room 'door'

3rd time 'daddy' will accompany or drive their wifes up to the hospital entrance

4th time 'daddy' will ask their wifes to take the taxi to the hospital and ring him after their
little ones are out.
