Beautiful day!

Okay! Today's a PERFECTLY beautiful day!

I started the day buying lunch for my parents which was GREAT cause I haven't spent time with them for a long time.
Then I made my way to the other end of my estate to visit my long-time-ago friend who has just given birth. Baby Nicole is LOVELY! Too bad, no cam.. :P
It's real amazing how we warm up SO very fast. (Hmmm..I always have tis notion that it's quite hard for gals to warm up fast)
This is a friend whom I got to know from the British Council where I had my English Tuition 16 over years ago. It's fantastic how we got close cause our interest and personalities are WORLD's apart. I love this friend.

Then, I made my way to work to be a Child Minder while the parents attend a program that's meant for parents (DUH!).
It was a real handful of kids!
First, I was given a 2+yr toddler to carry and next I knew, I carried her for about an hour cause all she knew was to stretched forth her hands and ask me to carry.
Then, we went to do some painting. Boy... When little kids handle the paintbrush, you really gotta be careful. Some kids accidentally became cats and I got some paint on my arms.
Well, you might as well know that after 2 hours of trying to grab the attention of the kids off their mommies, they will start to yell and cry. Some would. Some won't.
Today, we had one. Gosh! She screamed like her voicebox will fall off anytime.
Amazingly, praise God, I managed to calm her down and after 1/2 hr, she fell asleep in my arms. She looked SO sweet and so angelic. The 45mins struggle was worth it. Haa!!

What really made my day was after the whole event, I made my way to meet my sheepie...
The little gal came awhile after that and she recognized me. Her smile and hug made my day all so much more wonderful.

Haaaa.... Interesting!
I think at the end of the Child-Minding session, I was so dead tired that no songs could come into my head. :)
