Being thankful - Day 7

Yesterday, I was thankful for:

1) The chance to take a 30-45min nap. K looked after her while I collapsed on our bed and snoozed for almost 45mins in the early afternoon. A good nap definitely brings you further and I was grateful to K for doing chores and looking after her during that time.

2) Little Baby's trip out to the park. There is a park about 5 mins from where we stay and while K went for his Sunday evening jog, I brought Little Baby out for a walk along the park connector and at the park and playground itself. She looked intently everywhere and when we reached the playground she was staring at all the bigger kids running around (some were a little "amok" lol). I sat with her on one of those saddle seats that had a huge spring connecting it to the ground. She held the handlebars and I just rocked and bounced away haha. I'll be more prepared next time though, I forgot to bring her portable fan out, forgot to put on her pre-walker shoes and also didn't put a mozzie patch on her. Next time!

3) Our little family eating together. The fried rice and salted vege soup that my Mum made us dabao when we went over for dinner on Saturday dinner formed part of both our meals on Sunday...
During dinner, K, Little and Baby sat at our dining table on the balcony. 我们一家三口。A small breeze was blowing, a neighbour peeked out through his balcony (we waved to him) and there we were having dinner while the sun was setting. Nice homecooked food, using our own cutlery and crockery and utentsils, sitting in our own space. Couldn't ask for more.
