We had just arrived at the mall to do some shopping. The kids were running encouraged by Mr MG
"Run, run. At the mall, no carry, carry, walk yourself." And so he ran on ahead, chased by the kids and they urged me to run after them. I tagged along behind, smiling and happy and then I heard this loud booming mommy's voice saying
"DON'T RUN ALL OVER THE PLACE LAH!" as I passed by this harrassed looking mommy grabbing her son a little too roughly. With my blogger's mind, I told myself that I won't do the same thing. I shall let the kids enjoy themselves and I shall too!
And so, we walked/ran on to the pharmacy, the book shop, the department store. The kids got
wilder happier. As they ran down the glassware section of the department store, I heard this loud booming mommy's voice saying
"C'MON, STOP RUNNING ALL OVER THE PLACE!" Only, this time the voice was my own! And if any passer by happened to see my face at that moment, they would have seen the same pained expression worn by the other mommy I saw about an hour ago. Hahahaha!
Oh well, kids will be kids and moms will be moms. Thats the order of things. And looks like
Mdm Hyde has come out to play again :P
