Mom's Visit - Day 20

Day 20
It was the last day before my family flew back to Singapore. We didn't plan to go anywhere today since they wanted to pack their luggage. Mom suggested to make chili crabs for dinner since it has been ages since I last had that (mom is so nice!). So off we went downtown to the Thai store to check out for crabs and other ingredients. We found kangkong and tau kua! I'm so happy!

After the Thai store, my brother wanted to pass by the chocolate shop in Gamla Linköping to buy some chocolates for their friends and relatives. So we went to my favorite place! ^_^ However, I didn't get any since the candies in our home is enough to open a shop of our own!

We came home during lunch time and made a simple lunch of hot dogs and mash potatoes. After lunch, it's time for mom to go check out the wild flowers downstairs again! And this is the pick of the day.


And check out our dinner!


Tonight the kids stayed up till my mom decided that it was time for them to go to bed (they usually go to bed at 8.30pm during school days and 9pm during school holidays). Jovan and Angel decided to draw my mom, Louis and BK a card before they go home. At around 11pm, mom was getting tired and told them that it was time to go to bed.

The Next Day, 25 June
Their flight is at 12.25pm and so we need to be in the airport to drop off the baggage at 11.25am.

When it was time for them to go, Jovan and Angel found it hard to say goodbye. They were both red in the eyes and told my mom that they didn't want her to go, which didn't make things any easier for mom. They felt a little better when I said that we will go visit them next year.

When we came home from the airport, kiddos stayed out to play a little before coming home for lunch. When they came home, Jovan said,"Mommy, it feels like Grandma was never here." I know exactly how he feels! But we'll be back next year, see you guys then!
