Guilty...

I have been eating alot of "guilt" lately. Just today, while I was in the movie theater, mom calls and asked if I am coming back to eat dinner..and I said no coz I have promised to eat-out with friends (well since I am back in jakarta for the weekend, so Saturday is the best time to hang out with friends), and then she said with a soft voice (trust me...my mom has the loudest voice ever) "oh..okey..coz I cooked your fav shrimp dish".....Dengggggg...well actually she don't mind that I am eating out. But I mind the fact that she specially cooked my fav dish coz she knew I will be back in Jkt for the weekend, yet I can't make it for dinner. And I can't enjoy the rest of the movie after taking her call because I was eating my "guilt"

And guess what?? She didn't cook the shrimp. She told me that she will freeze the raw shrimp and planned to cook it next wednesday when I am back from Bandung. And tonight she spend a few hours in the kitchen to cook bird nest soup for the family....well, fortunately my husband is a very filial son-in-law. He said we should get home earlier today and keep our parent in company at home instead of going to the jazz club.

So..I hope one day if I have a daughter (hahhahaha) she will be like me...well at least keep parents in our mind each day. Being thankful for their presence and unconditional love to us. Not only that, I am thankful too for my parents-in-law who are very nice and warmth just like my parents towards me. And because of them who loves us so much, we never mind if we have to spend our weekend at home with them. At times we may get irritated by their "over-react" attitude...but most of the time we enjoy spending time talking from A to Z topic with them, as they are so open to us that they are willing to share their experience (be it good or bad) with us and do not mind if we laugh at their flaws, and dare to admit their mistake to us if they are wrong...(well they don't tend to say Sorry to us directly; but they have their way to say sorry to us even though we never mind and will always treat them as our role model in our life)

Say me lucky...I am indeed lucky to have 2 set of parents who love me and Alvin so much that we feel only by spending quality time with them can express how much we feel gratitude for their love towards us. We never get bored around them...and of course I hope they never feel bored having us beside them every other day :)
