We were holed up inside the house all of Sunday thanks to the awful weather & despite all of Mom's efforts at keeping me amused, I felt really restless - I kept pointing towards the garden hoping Mom would take me outside, but she just wouldn't take a hint. I really missed Dad!
During the course of the day, I realized Mom was missing him too & now it was my turn to amuse her. Why do they say women are hard to please? It didn't take me much to bring a smile to Mom's face....
On Monday morning, my friend Aarav arrived with his parents (Deepak uncle & Rimple aunty) & picked us up for another(!) shopping trip - this time to the big malls at Guildford. We reached Guilford just in time for lunch & after a nice hearty meal (I had Roast vegetable lasagne & orange juice) we hit the shops. Mom took me to a very nice shop where I got to see a lot of colourful paintings. As always she took a long time browsing & Aarav sort of lost his patience. Rimple aunty had to take off with him & leaving Mom & me at the Art shop. We bought a couple of prints to put up at our house & then met up with the rest of the gang. From the town centre we went off to another big mall where Aarav's Mom & Dad bought a sofa for their new house. Aarav and I can't wait to get our hands on it!
Got back home for dinner,I dropped off to sleep right away as I was quite tired - I didn't even realize when Aarav, Rimple aunty & Deepak uncle left.
After a nice relaxing weekend, it was back to the daily grind this morning. I was back at the nursery & Mom was back at her office.
When Dad left on Friday, Mom was a bit worried about how she would cope without him for a whole week -- but I've taken good care of her so far, haven't I Dad?
