Whilst they were skating, I had time to run out to do some quick shopping and also grabbed a snack at the local eatery that included carrot cake, a hot dog, and chips.
After skating, we went to lunch, and they chose to go to one of our favourite spots, which was the local Vietnamese Cafe. This time, I decided to stray from my usual Hinamese chicken on rice with its special soup.
Instead, I chose a combination soup with egg noodles as I'm not a big fan of noodles, but I simply love their flavoursome soups. We all chose different dishes, but couldn't finish them, so we were able to take the leftovers home.
My youngest has improved immensely in ice-skating, and I must say that although I did ice-skate 'once-upon-a-time', I'm most reluctant to take a fall and instead enjoy long 5km walks instead.
I must say that it's quite endearing to see my children taking me out, which still takes a little getting used to, having been a provider for them growing up with my beloved. However, it's also satisfying and a blessing to see them growing up, taking responsibility and showing love.
Today, they also baked a cake to commemorate the 62 years of marriage that could have been (although my dad passed away a few years ago). It still was very special and a blessing to know that it meant a lot to them, which brought tears to my mum, too. It certainly was a blessing...
