<<<Selamat Hari Ibu>>>

I once scolded my youngest sis for criticizing mum’s tomato prawns. Mind you, my mum actually peeled off the prawn shells for her and pack it 4 her to eat on the return car journey. (It was peeled more for convenience to avoid greasiness rather than to spoil a brat.) And if not for the fact that she’s our mum, I guess even a chef at the restaurant will flare if u criticize his dishes, not 4getting the oil-blotted face standing hours in the kitchen to whip out meals aft meals.

Herbal teas, barley, chrysanthemum tea... cooling in a hot summer but heartwarming on any other day---as long as it’s brewed by mum. I once stood silently behind mum. 2.30am. Stirring red bean soup, to ensure it was just the right consistency, according to the way my 2nd sis likes it. She cld have covered the pot, left it to boil. Yet, she stirred for ½ hr till 3am. (Yes, call me silly to stand for ½ hr. If not, how wld I know how tiring it was for her to be stirring AND standing?!?) Unlike any other 80cents bowl sold in food courts, that small bowl of red bean soup is PRICELESS!

Patiently waiting in the car while we get stuck hours crossing the Spore immigration. When u expect to hear some nagging, she calmly passed u ur lunchbox. “Quick, eat it b4 it’s cold”. I wanted to tell her, “I’d finish all of it even if it’s cold.”. I swear.
Who wld do it, if not mum?

Mum calling her mum. A long distance call weighs more than gold. My mum is not only a teacher. She’s my teacher for life. Mum mks it a habit to call grandma as often or ‘hui niang jia’ while they’re still breathing. She says it’s too late when u weep besides the coffin. I agree. I’ll buy you Roasted Duck with my mthly salaries soon and not wait to place them on the ancestor table. ( Erm, not trying ot be morbid but that’s indeed what my mum said)

Thank you for being my mum. That’s the most u’ve given to me, besides giving birth to me. You might not be technology-savvy enough to read this but this is dedicated to u all the same. Somewhere in a corner of the cyber planet, this entry marks my filial piety for u. I’m glad I’m born your daughter. The word old age may seep in but to both my parents: Rest assured that ur names will not enter into the registries of old folks homes. In a wheelchair, or with a walking stick, I’ll get you to where u hope to be.
