There we were in TLF, counting down the number of hours before we set foot on the plane back to Singapore! Me and dear even joked about not letting the kids go to bed last night just so that they can sleep throughout the entire flight back. Who knows that would come true!
Well, we had a final farewell and an advanced birthday celebration for Dorean and Claris yesterday! It had been a week filled with lots of makan session... I'm already missing all the fun with the girls... late night cooking, baking, watching movies and 38-ing while the hubbies were on night shift or away for their TDY. Hehe.
Anyway, while we were packing up, Nana had a little mishap. Our princess chose to rock herself while sitting on her car-seat which we left in front of the TV. She lost balance, fell forward and her forehead hit the edge of the coffee-table. There was a deep cut and blood was dripping out. Time check: 11pm and there we were at the nearest hospital. (Thank you Kwok for driving us there!) And guess what? We had to leave for the airport by 3.30am. Imagine how tensed we were. So worried that we'll miss our flight. Nana was given 3 stitches after the numbness took effect about half an hour later. By the time we got back to TLF, it was 1am. Thankfully Echo and Ivy helped clean up the place! We did a final check on all our items... 5 luggages, 2 hand-carry bags, a box and 2 booster seats.
What a way to end our stay in USA! Throughout this entire 2 years, other than the usual cough, fever or runny nose which we treated with over-the-counter medications, there was never a need for Nana to see the doctors.
Anyway, all went as planned. We made it to the airport on time thanks to all from EI! As for now, just got to bring Nana to the clinic for the stitches removal on Wednesday. No swimming and no direct sunlight for the next 3 months to a year to avoid a scar.
