Monday no blue
Its really fab that Jackie's journey back home coincides with my leave.
I haven't seen her for almost 2 years and everytime I think about her, its always the good old days we had sipping midori and playing scramble in university apartments or at the library lawn. Ha.. those lovely days!
She was like a little sister to me back in Sydney and though we hardly meet up these days with her living in Sydney, the sisterly affection I have for her never dwindles away.
We met up for coffee today and she brought her baby son Aidan along. At 17 months old, this boy is a charmer and goes around making people smile and oogle at him. Such a cutiepie. He made his rounds at the table and everyone in the cafe was all enthralled by him. And when he wanted some of our chocolate cake or latte, he kept going 'more.. more' or took his fork and tried to poke at the cake... ha! :)
He was definitely an easy baby until he got really tired and restless close to his bed time but he was still manageable and pacifiable (is there such a word?) .. which gives Jackie and I time to chat and shop around with him in the pram.
..I think I learnt how to manoveure a pram rather well today with all the practice up and down the escalator and snaking round the malls, lol..
He is still learning how to talk now and the next time I see him, he will definitely be calling me Aunty Sharon.. cos Jackie refuses to let him call me Sharon jiejie.
