The Day we Had Lunch at Shangri La

The verbal invitation happened 2 months before the event.

I was asked, repetitively, to book 2nd October, and attend a lunch session with a Director from the Ministry of Home Affairs.

Well, because my profession deals a lot with confidential matters, my description needs to stop here.

We almost didnt want to go, because we just spent the early morning at the A&E.

But we still did, so we could see Cute Tot in her fine dress :)

Cute Tot clapped excitedly when everyone else clap.

She babbled LOUDLY when the guest of honour was giving a speech.

Fortunately, there was another baby who babbled loudly. But I decided to stand a lil bit outside the ballroom, so as to calm Cute Tot's excitement.

Guess, I'm the kind of parent who is very worried about others' response towards my child. The highly vigilant one... u know the kind?

We were less vigilant when it was time to eat. Cute Tot explored the silvers and discovered 'utensil fight' game with me. She held the spoon and i held the bread knife. The 'clings' sounds made her happy. She ate the good food too. Oh gosh! This kid is a joy when it comes to feeding her adult food. She LOVES them!
