A Mothers' Day full of surprises

Is it Mothers' Day or Mother's Day? Anyway...

A few days ago, Yang asked me when Mothers' Day was. He said he wanted to get a present for me from the bookshop. My sons like to go to the school bookshop so he must have spotted flowers with greetings on them. He mentioned this in either P1 or P2 but no action, which was fine and rather cute :p

But this time, he came home on Friday and said he had something for me. He fished out a little card with a smile on his face. He said he wanted to get me a "proper" Mothers' Day present but the bookshop had run out of flowers. I assured him that any present during this time was a great Mothers' Day present :)

Later, he said the card cost $1, could he have the money? Wa liao, haha! Then he asked for more time with me at bedtime. Gladly, coz he's the sweetest at bedtime - when he's not distracted by Kai!

Then this morning, I was keeping clothes from the drying racks in the small room when Yu walked in with a stalk of flower and a smiley "Happy Mothers' Day!" I was so surprised! As I took the flower and walked out, Yang came to me with another stalk and said the same. I was near the fridge when Kai handed me a stalk with "For you!" My Sito was standing at the fridge with two stalks of flowers. I took them all :)

So yesterday, Sito bought the flowers when he went out to get liang cha. He left the flowers at the foyer and went out to collect only after showering. No wonder I heard the door open! He had this smile on his face when he saw me come out of the room while hiding the flowers in the fridge. Hmmm... But I didn't see anything even though I opened the fridge last night and this morning! 

So sweet :) Thank you, my hub and pups!

My presents are sitting pretty on the dining table, brightening up our home :)
