The only thing I had energy with, in preparation for Eid, was finding clothes for Amy’s official debut. It was a 2 month project and I’d scoop up anything cute, which resulted in her having enough clothes for a few costume changes.
First Raya was over at the in-laws this time. It’s a pretty quiet affair over there, except for hanging around at other people’s houses. Amy was exposed to her very first bbq, where she got to inhale lots of bad air for about an hr before I had her bundled into a room upstairs to avoid the smoke. She was pretty well behaved throughout the festive break. She’d only cry if people were holding in an amateurish fashion or making her do weird dips into the air etc. I was always glad when she cried, cos there’s nothing better than claiming her back from people who mishandled her.
Raya on my side was fab (naturally). God was great, most of the relos I wanted to meet, and feared not meeting were at my great grandma’s at the time I showed up there. My grandaunties were really happy to have Amy around. They’re lonely people, and Amy brought joy with her – I was so proud of Amy for playing her part.
I didn’t stuff myself this raya, unlike all other ones. The only thing I had a little too much of was mother in-law’s chocolate chip cookies which were yummy!
I usually turn into a bit of a monster when im over at my in-laws, and it happened (privately this time) when FIL picked Amy up when she should be having her nap time. I was mad at him for interrupting her sleep, and hubs for not saying a word! Ergh!!
