I am not the only one who is excited about the upcoming trip to china, my children are excited and counting down the days, my husband is also excited to be able to see us all. My parents are also looking forward to the trip, as we are going to visit my sis too. It is less than 2 weeks and counting.
My parents and I have all the winter clothes, but Nee and Derek cannot wear her old winter jacket. Ray can wear Derek’s old one, although it is really big for his size, but he does not mind. Haha. My husband suggested he buys the winter jacket for Nee and Derek and bring them to the airport. The only problem I can think of is size, he may not know what size to buy. Well, at least he is willing to share a little bit of responsible as a parent, I will let him do it.
What else do I need to buy? Husband said he does not need anything. He said he misses hawker foods in penang. I will cook some good dishes for him when in china. I learned a few new dishes from my mom. Oh yes, that reminds me, I need to get some curry powder, bah kut teh packets …. my curry fish head is getting better, of course, I use pre mixed curry powder. Haha.
My mom bought a lot of chinese medicine for my sis. I just hope custom will not take it from her. Last time I was there at the airport, I saw custom bring a dog sniffing luggages and saw the dog sat right beside a guy’s luggage. The dog is so cute, but I am sure the guy will get into trouble. I told my mom and she just said if they want it, let them have it. What can I say.
Sis, if you’re reading this, I have bought a gift for you and the baby. I think you will like it. I’m not going to tell you what it is. For the baby, I got him a really cute winnie the pooh package of clothing and a musical thing for you to put in the baby room.
Thank you.
Thank you.
