It’s been a while since I’m in the mood to blog. But today,
Sunday, at home, peaceful, with droplets of rain on my window, mist covered
green mountains when I look beyond the pouring rain, and Adele singing “When
the rain is blowing in your face…” on my lappy, gives me just the right
atmosphere to jot down my thoughts.
9 days at home, 9 more days to go and my vacation ends. Dayum!
Someone please stop the time!
This time, my stay at home is being with the family, mostly
with my nieces and nephew. My third niece Puipuii (5 years) has been sleeping
with me ever since I returned. And the elder two, Feli and Dindini are all
grown up, Feli has become more of a big girl now, we now wear the same shoe
size! Kids these days, they grow up too fast. I got them an Angry bird
plaything, and they have been busy with it. I got them ‘Angry bird’ erasers,
lots of ‘em. Why all stuffs from Angry birds? They love ‘em, I do too, and I
wanna play with it too *GRIN*. I’ve written much about these three angels on
“My beautiful angels” post, so I feel now I am obliged to write about the
younger two, or when they grow up and read my blog, they’ll be sad to see their
Aunty not writing anything about them :-)
Pekpeka (2 years, 11 months): He’s my one and only nephew,
and the fairest among the five.
He is such a sweet boy. Since he lives with his parents in a separate house, I
don’t know much to say about his habits, but one thing I’m sure of, he is very
very obedient. When he was a baby, he used to be very chubby, we called him
“lalpathaua” and his sis Puipuii would call him “ai pathau”. If he wants
attention, he would repeatedly call me “A ni” even after responding umpteen
times. Our conversation would mostly go on like this: “A ni”, “ei ah” “A ni”,
“ei ah” “A ni”, “ei ah” “A ni”, “ei ah” “A ni”, “ei ah” “A ni”, “ei ah” “A ni”,
“ei ah”……………… :D He is uber-cool, the gentle kind. He doesn’t beat girls, and
sometimes he allows girls to beat him :-). But when the limit is reached, he can be quite
manful. He knows when to show “He’s the man!”, yeah, my kind of man :D
Himhimi (2 years, 1 month): This one, she follows me
everywhere! Pekpeka calls her “Mim-mim-i” since he cannot pronounce H, and I
have been calling her like that, coz it sounds like my name :-) I
taught her her first word, which is “A ni” :D. Her mom had some complications during her carriage,
and they had to make tough decisions, but by God’s grace, she was born healthy,
and hence we named her “Grace” and she has been everyone’s favorite ever since.
He, I mean she is just like a boy. (hihi). Very tough, very naughty, playful,
she prefers playing with balls over barbies, she has Ben10 crocs, she doesn’t
like to wear dresses and hair clips. The other night, she slept with me, her
first time away from her parents. Everything was fine until midnight when she
woke up and said its time to get up. She kept telling its morning already. I
tried to make her sleep but she wouldn’t. So, 3 am, she was watching Nursery
rhymes with bro Siama who’s room is next
to mine. That night, everyone except dad got up and tried to put her back to
sleep. So funny! Finally she came back to me at 3:30 am, and we could finally put
our eyes to rest.
I have plans coming up this week. Mom’s chemo is on 17th,
and I can finally take her again. Dinner plans with two groups of friends,
Picnic plans (hopefully), a date with Ruati at The Coffee Place (Zarkawt), etc. All I wanna do now, is stop the time, and
spend more time with everyone here. So much to do, so little time! Huhuiz! ciao
