We had a rough weekend as one of our hamsters passed away and the girls and I ended up huddling and crying together.
I wasn't really looking forward to the start of the week and was feeling exhausted, at the same time bracing myself to be ready for more tantrums and whines than usual since we were all feeling so down.
It turned out that these girls are more sensible and mature than I think they are. This afternoon, we all took a nap and the girls woke up earlier than the baby brother and I. Not only did they not wake me up (which is already something to be thankful for), they also decided to get down to work and surprise me. Together, they packed the living room, wiped the floor, tidied their study tables, even folded the laundry which was on the sofa and kept their own clothes into their wardrobes. After all that was done, they even sat down to do a handmade card which says for the most wonderful Mum in the world. Seriously, I could have cried all over again. What have I done to deserve them, to deserve all this goodness in my life? These kids make this emo mama even more emo in such moments.
It also touched me to read how my firstborn said it comforted her when I hugged her knowing that her beloved pet was gone. I didn't realise she needed me so much and that having me there beside her meant a great deal to her heart. It just reminds me that a very small, loving gesture from a parent can mean the world to a child. So, let's all not forget to show our love even if in the tiniest of ways. Because at the end of day, they do make a huge difference. Thank you, my dear girls, for making this Monday a day to remember.
