We waited for 30 mins to take a taxi, and there is none. I feel quite disturbed, and added my wife started to arrange some plans without consulting me. It ends two of us making our own plans for the rest of the day. To which adding to my frustration.<\/p>\n<p>We went home, trying to work out things, and i still feel the tension isn&#8217;t resolved. I&#8217;ve to admit, i feel sorry for my daughter when this kind situation arises. She shouldn&#8217;t have to experience all these. But there she is, brave herself, not crying, and not adding to the stress.<\/p>\n<p>We went for lunch nearby. Thank God we managed to get a seat. Our daughter didn&#8217;t eat a lot. But she&#8217;s happy. Then I insisted we buy mineral water because it&#8217;s gonna be a long day, and over there will be more crowded. It added the tension, and after that, i can&#8217;t find my wife when she&#8217;s supposed to wait for me at lift entry. I felt very sorry afterwards that I shouted at her on way down the escalator. I told her that Sunday we shouldn&#8217;t rush, but I rushed her to the train. Obviously she was angered, that she scolded me inside the train.<\/p>\n<p>Then after few stops, we parted our way. I went to pick up the movie ticket, while my wife brought our daughter to meet her sister. His meeting ended on time, so I met him in train station and got the ticket. HP battery run low, so I texted my wife, we meet at the movie theater at time, coz i managed to get the ticket.<\/p>\n<p>I thank God again for my friend&#8217;s ticket still available, and at good price, lastly managed to get from him on time. So book the movie, 2 rows from the front. I thanked God again that we manage to get to watch the movie. Shortly after that, my wife came, and we made up for the beginning of the day.<\/p>\n<p>She went again with her sister to find new pair of shoes for our girl. I brought this little girl around. She enjoyed herself, dragged me around, till i felt very tired&#8230;and she waited for me to gain back my strength. She enjoyed playing with the water, and climbing and sliding down&#8230;she&#8217;s such a joy to behold.<\/p>\n<p>Then we tried the shoes, but all too small for her little feet. And time for us for dinner. This time another pleasant surprises came. My sister-in-law bought birthday cake for my wife. And her wishes to blow birthday candle was fulfilled. I didn&#8217;t know what to say. Earlier she regretted this year birthday. But i think today was a memorable day for her. I thank God again for a wonderful sister-in-law.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, she even treated us for the nice dinner (with funny episode our daughter felt asleep on dining chair). The timing just nice that our movie about to start and we finished the dinner. So what a marvelous of my sister-in-law, she babysit our girl for 3 hours, and after long, finally I caught Hobbit 2 with my wife. It&#8217;s a nice movie, a nice weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Thank God so much for the wonderful weekend. What seem to be a bad day, turned out to be one of the wonderful weekend, full of experience. I managed to do some work also on top of that. Praise God!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes we never know the end at the beginning.
