Will This Ever Stop?

Did you read the paper today? This really breaks my heart. When will this stop? It's just too often nowadays that little kids are abused. Why??? If you don't like kids, why do you take care of them for a living? Please don't do this. Please don't harm them. They don't know anything. And imagine the family of the abused victims. Imagine what they have to go through.

A few weeks back, I was walking around KL Sentral and I saw a little kid about Maira's age happily running around. The little girl was smiling broadly until her mommy who was on the phone caught her and slapped her at least THREE TIMES. How could she?? She was running at an empty area so it was safe. When she was hit, the girl looked so shocked and then she cried and cried. I was so shocked myself. If they were closer, I would have yelled at the mom. That's abuse, don't you know that??

Gosh... I can get really emotional about this matter. Who wouldn't right?

Anyway, on a happier note. How was your weekend? Mine was alright. The two highlights were a birthday party at Jungle Gym and a mummy-daughter movie session with Audrene (while Maira napped..hehe). What movie did we watch? You could never have guessed... it was PS I Love You! Haha!

In the middle of the movie, Audrene turned to me and asked... Mummy, ada tak mummy rasa nak nangis? I answered yes... Then she said saya pun... saya rasa airmata nak keluar Ayo... ada perasaan rupanya my little princess! We watched the movie till the end and she loved it. But she did say that it was a bit too sad for her. Later in the evening, she watched New Moon and shyly whispered to me saya suka Jacob. Ayoyo....

Is she growing up too fast? Hmmm, I dont know. But I could see that she has developed more emotion and has become more and more sensitive towards the surroundings. And of course, she is more protective than ever of her little sister whom she loves and adores to bits. I caught her patting and kissing the sleeping Maira's cheek just now and I thought that was sweet :)

Ok people. Way past my bedtime. Suddenly my eyes and head feel very heavy. Goodnite, sweet dreams.
