We had such a busy and hectic weekend and I'm hoping all of us can catch up with some of that sleep over the week, especially since we sleep really early now. Lol.

Saturday morning saw us leaving the house at 8am and sending baby K to Jeremy's while the hubs and I went to the Victor's before their son's body was sent to the church for the funeral service and then to the crematorium. I think the emotions made our bodies more tired. Seeing Kenneth and Gaye weep so openly wrenched my heart so that you really feel the pain for them. 

After the cremation, close friends and relatives proceeded back to the Victors' for lunch and although we were supposed to pick baby K up at 3pm, she ended up having dinner at Jeremy's and then we brought her back to the Victors'. All of us wanted to provide them the support that they need and besides, the mood was a lot more lighten up.

We only left at about 9ish and by then, baby K fell asleep while drinking her milk in the car.

Yesterday after church, we caught up with my ex-colleague Ivy and her family when they invited baby K to Polliwogs for some fun. While Clayton entertained and 'took care' of baby K in the beginning, the parents were having a drink at the cafe. We spent almost 3 hours there, with the kids crawling through tunnels and obstacles, diving into ball pits which were only covering the ground and basically enjoying themselves.

It was a fun respite especially since the week had been pretty sad to begin with and having to pick baby K from school half-way through work with her fever and all. Oh well, it's back to work tomorrow and life continues again.
