Papa's Birthday

23rd June 2007.

We contemplated going for a picnic, and spend an afternoon on a mat near the waters. Estelle could play on the sand, with Papa chasing after her, while Mummy could listen to some music and snap pictures, and Eston would be providng some company to Mummy as he lays by her side.

Lovely.

Alas. We considered many factors, like the unreasonable hot weather recently, the return of dengue scare, and Eston may not be ready for such an outing, and Estelle may not have overcome her fear of sand (yes, she is afraid of the sand), and frankly, it is indeed a CHALLENGING outing for Papa and Mummy, considering all the major logistics.

In the end, we decided that it would be safer to stay indoors.

Though we had a typical weekend outing trip to Ikea Tampines, we kindda spiced it up with a throw-in detour to the airport. Estelle could see the planes and Mummy could feed Eston comfortably. It wasn't about what you do, it's about the whole family spending some quality time together.

We had a great time. Simplicity can be blissful.

Happy Birthday, Dear. Love you always.
