Adam was ultra naughty on Tuesday night and received a few tight spanking from me. And me of course, I feel terrible about it and Wednesday morning decided to spent some time with him. It ended up with spending the whole day with him, with me shifting all my appointments to today. He decided that he wanted to be with me the whole of yesterday. So, he played with me, watched his cartoon with me, ate breakfast with me and read books with me the whole day. Later in the late afternoon, I took him for a hair cut and a ride to my darling husband's office. Adam was excited but was very quiet when the barber cut his hair. He knew he had to be quiet and he sat very still. He amused himself by looking at himself in the mirror and making faces. Today, he is off to the babysitter.

Balqis as usual, is back to school to the holiday program until 3rd December. I havent figure out what to do with her after that. Looks like today is a nice sunny day. I doubt it will last until tonight. But I'm pretty pleased that it's not as gloomy as yesterday.

Now, I've a back-to-back kind of appointments today. Still havent decided what to wear and no time to wash my hair. Will just drop by at the hair dresser later and wear something cozy and warm. It might be raining again soon.

In the meantime, I'm thinking cardigan set, denim embroidered shirt. Or perhaps a shirt? Cant make up my mind. Major decision.

It's a wonderful day.

Despite people dropping in with their emails or their yahoo messenger complaining about this blog that's without anything new to read, I still wasnt able to update it until this morning. Balqis and Adam have, for two days in a row, been waking up at 7am. Balqis has been going to school by 7.30am and Adam to the babysitter by 7.40am. This means I am able to start work as early as 8am. I've been having this sore throat ever since we came back from Seberang Jaya for our Hari Raya. The kids got it much earlier.... just prior to our return from Seberang Jaya. It's just too hot over there and not taking enough fluid always does the trick.

It's all very clear in Balqis' mind now that the ones living in Seberang Jaya (Atok & Nani) are actually Daddy's daddy and mommy. Although she was very suprised at this revelations a few years ago and didnt think much of it or the information was just too much too ponder on, she now understands that we like her, have mommies and daddies.

I'm not sure and havent had the opportunity to ask her about her uncles and aunties. She recognised them as part of the festive, the gathering and the meetings. Does she know that like her, her mom and dad also has brothers and sisters, have not been explored. She could have figured it out on her own but she didnt say. And I am not sure whether she remembers me explaining to her the relationship or whether she took it seriously because she didnt comment. At one point, quite some time ago, she did raise an eyebrow when I pointed out ..."You know Balqis, Aunty Ani is your daddy's big sister".

Adam of course, has too much on his mind to even bother about all this. He recognises Atok and Nani. He doesnt care where all these other kids come from as long as he could play with them, every day from morning to night. He cares more about making a big mess with everything to be bothered with anything else and Adam is not easily bothered unless provoked. Whatever it is I cant wait for Adam to go to school this January. It'll just be so much fun for him. I cant wait to see him in his school uniform, school shoes, carrying a batman bag on his back, bringing back art work to show mommy ... although I can imagine Adam's art work which would be very abstract.

One cant tell that those black streaks of thick lines and small random sized group of non-well rounded circles are actually, cats. But there's this confidence in him when he puts up his abstract art to announce to us what he drew. He dismisses any recognition of bewilderment on our part. Or was that a twinkle in his eyes that I see? For all you know, he could be thinking ... "suckers ..."

Time check. Time to begin writing the client's newsletter now. Back to deadlines and datelines, whichever comes first.
