Imagine my surprise when I go onto the blog yesterday morning and see a post NOT written by me! GASP! I was happy to learn it was just my husband and not a hacker ;) I'm not really sure how to move forward following Phil's contribution, so I will just do what I do best: BLAB and CARRY ON!
Let's talk about K POP (aka Kumari Poppins).
I think I've officially fallen in love with her. The deal has been SEALED, my friends. Here's my list of reasons why:
Last weekend we left BOTH GIRLS with her for the very first time. I was a nervous wreck. Or worse than one of those. The good news is that we stayed on site and were only an elevator ride away. It was the perfect way to ease into this whole "leaving BOTH KIDS BEHIND" thing because I was able to check on them whenever I wanted. And so I did. Three times. The first time, Nory was happily playing with a water cup and spoon, Jet was being swaddled and rocked by Kumari, and the entire house was tidied up (WHO IS THIS WOMAN?!). The second time, Kumari was working with Nory on her colours (yes, LEARNING!) and Jet was sleeping. The third time, Kumari was rocking both kids to sleep at the same time. And it was working. Beautifully. She's SUPERWOMAN.
We had a three hour blackout the other evening. At around 9:30 p.m., Kumari walked anxiously to the living room with a flashlight in hand to say, "Madam - I just see fish now and I think hungry!!! Can I give food Madam?!" Yes, the woman was worried about GOLDFISH, you guys! I was way too busy trying to maximum my phone's battery life to even THINK about the darn fish! Haha.
On Wednesday night, she told us that she had to go to the convenience store for "five minutes". What she really meant was that she had to RUN (yes, RUN!) a few blocks to a toy store to buy Nory the MOST THOUGHTFUL gift ever. She ran in order to keep the present a surprise, as we were thinking she simply slipped out for a phone card! And the gift was ADORABLE! A singing and dancing doll because "Nory loves singing and dancing!!!!"
I could go on and tell you more about how she prepared a surprise Sri Lankan snack for me the other day. Or how her eyes filled with tears when I gave her a bag of old clothes. Or how her eyes lit up when I complimented her on her new earrings. Alas, a gal can only blab so much following a long day of birthday festivities! I'm tired, Jet is officially asleep, and I need to get as many zzzz's as I can before she gets up again!
We love you K POP! Will you be our Valentine? XO
