It has been hard enough for me to meet up with my good friend, Vicky and more so now, since her husband's posted to India. However, not forgetting our pact(to treat the other to a meal on either's birthday), she contacted me 2 days ago, upon her return from the lastest trip to arrange a lunch date today.
As usual, Renee tagged along and we had a wonderful meal at Paradise Inn @Somerset 313. In order for us to catch-up in 'peace', without Renee bugging us to leave the restaurant, I've packed 2 of the Supermind activity cards and although she finished all 3 tasks very quickly, it was still good enough to keep her occupied(she retried them with different ways a few times each).
We didn't stay to browse the mall and headed straight to Plaza Singapura where we had a really nice time browsing through the stores(though at some point, Renee did urge us to move on to other stores 'cos she's bored there, haha). We both ended up with some buys - not much for me today, mainly what I need - I'm exercising my buying control, heee.
Out since noon, it's not before long we began to feel tired and with Renee complaining about hunger(??? she ate so much at lunch!), we stopped for an early dinner. Hubby came to pick us up at 8pm and oblivious to the 2 older ladies' fatigue, Renee complained "aiyah, why papa come so early to pick us?", kekeke. But once on her carseat, she too, had to try very hard to keep her eyes opened, :) and we have to take turns to tease her to keep her awake. However, after we've dropped Vicky off, she couldn't 'tahan' and fell asleep and in an attempt to wake her up, we had to detour to Punggol Plaza to get some snacks, :).
Whilst showering, Renee asked me "mommy, did you enjoy yourself today?", I replied "Yes, I get to meet my good friend..." and she added "me too, I had a good time!". From the expression she had on her face when waving goodbye to my friend, I know she's telling the truth, :)...
