Happy Birthday, Mum

It was my mum's birthday last Sunday. :->


















And we bought her a cake and Bro sang her birthday song. We had a great laugh and had fun. We are not the lovey dovey type of family who expresses affection openly. So its good that we have such moments. :-)


When I was in Primary School, I had an BM (Malay Language) Oral Test, the examiner showed me a picture similar to this one here..

Oink took this with his HP when he found this nest.














And I remembered how i talked about mother's love. How the mother bird protects the chicks, how she feeds them avday, and not leaving them, till the wings hardened, and the baby birds are able to fly on their own.

Well, luckily i got an A for my BM.LOL!

That day i went to Padungan to buy something. Before that, we need to find a place to have breakfast. That is when i saw a shop called Ah Meng Cafe. Mum used to bring me and bro there to have the porridge. When we got older, we didn't want to follow Mum anymore. HMM~



















I am delighted that the porridge stall is still there. Although its not the best tasting porridge in town. But it meant a lot to me. It made me recall memories. :-)

Happy Birthday, Mum.

Happy birthday to your mum
I know the feeling as I too had a time which I did not want to go out with my parents
But then now I almost go out with my mum every weekend to buy groceries or just stay at home with them

panda, i think we used to be those lil birds too with mama n papa feed us. As we grow, our 'wing' harden, and tend to 'fly' and explore and not following mama n papa. lol... but i like morning breakfast with them! =)
