Today's the day. My niece, Lynette's wedding day! Congratulations to her and we wish her a blissful marriage.
Renee hasn't been sleeping well the past few nights and I'm not sure if it's due to the excitement of the re-opening of school or that the reality of her being the flowergirl is happening soon(I asked her, she said not...). In any case, she's very excited today, :). She had came home from school looking tired(from the lack of proper sleep the past few nights), so I quickly reminded her of her 'job' this evening, to perk her up and it did! lolz.

As I needed to be at the restaurant early, we let Renee skip her practice today and told her to simply finish up her homework. But, she took sooo long at shower that we turned up alittle late and although I was able to complete the makeup for the bride's mother, my Sista, I wasn't quite satisfied(call me a perfectionist or what, but I wish I had known much earlier if I could make it on time for this task, so I could go buy some new colours and stuffs!)..... Thereafter, I even had time to powder my other sis, Li and my Mom, just a little... and that's when I really really see the aging effect on my Mum. I've been noticing these signs for awhile now but it is only tonight, when I faced her up close that I felt "she's really old...", :(.
Ok ok, this post should go on a happy note, so let's resume to the flowergirl topic, :).
When the time arrived, the groom came to get Renee and standing outside the restaurant door, she replied the bride's query that she wasn't nervous, :). During the march-in, I noticed that she wasn't smiling! I quickly signalled to her to do so and just as she was about to, she was 'stopped' and almost immediately, I saw the reason of her 'not-smiling' - people were taking the flower petals from her basket(don't know why only from her and not from the other boy, hahaha) and taking her 'job' seriously, she must have felt that it is her duty and not others', to scatter the rose petals along the bridal path, hahaha. However, I guess it's because she was told by someone to throw the petals one by one and hadn't thrown the petals high enough(I mean, how to throw 1 flower petal high?) and thus, these people might have felt obliged to render help along the way, hahaha.
In any case, it has been a nice evening with some good laughs and now, it's just time for the dress to be laundered and kept in the wardrobe... :)
