Mom

It was cute to spend some time with mom again. I wasn't that happy when she had to go live with my sis but if she doesn't I'm pretty sure my sis would need a lot of help in Thailand. So, I guess I was happy she came back for a week and I get to speend the whole weekend with her.

I am 28 and I feel like a young adult but then when I see mom bringing a suitcase full of snacks and candy, I feel like I was 9 again. It was nice to see she's got a lot of stuffs just bought for me. I felt half bad as well given I'm the one supporting her with my income and there she was buying a lot of stuffs for me.

I tried to talk to her about Craig. I told her I've found someone I love. It was funny how I tried not to genderize the 'him/her' and the fact that the burmese term for him/her is not based on gender of reference. I also told her that I don't want her to know who she/he is and she just smiled at me. Something tells me she knows that I have a boyfriend but I guess she's just in denial, just like my grandparents. But I was glad she and I had a moment where both of us smiled at the fact that I've found my true love.

It's also cute how Craig has seen a pic of my mom and says he wants to hug her. Yeah, my mom does that effect on people who's seen her on photos lol. she's so cute. :D
