Dry run

Have been sending Heidi to MIL's place in the afternoons 2 weeks ago. And 2 Fridays ago, the moment I stepped out of my MIL's place, I felt a sense of loss.

I called my man and cried on the phone.
Clearly, I miss Heidi already, and it's only just 5 mins ago.

My man consoled me by saying he sufferes from Heidi Syndrome every morning and especially painful every Monday.

Today, we did a dry run. We sent her there in the morning during the morning rush hours.

I woke up unusually early, earlier than my man and did not even feel grouchy.
Woke Heidi up and fed her. Guess, the mornings with Heidi will be like this in future.
She likes mornings. She gives the widest grins today but I guess all babies love mornings.
She cooed to her "hanging mobile" friends, namely Meh-meh the Sheep, Moo-moo the Cow and Yee-yore the Donkey. She never meets them this early I think, that's why she's excited.

In the car, she looks out of the window, and must be thinking the world is burstling with activities so early.

Half way thru the journey she fell asleep after many yawns.

It's obvious she's sleepy as she always sleeps after her morning milk.

At the MIL's place, we parted.

Once again, tears welled in my eyes though they didn't drop.

They've trickled down already when we were on our way to her po-po's place.

I still clearly remembered one incident when we sent her there on one occasion, we kind of felt that she was sad, cos her down-turned mouth gave away the sign.

I hope my busy work will keep me occupied tomorrow when I start work.

Oh geez, I didn't know I'll miss someone so dearly in my life other than my family and man.

Now, she's really part of my flesh.
