Movie night at ACM 看电影

Movie night. Hoped that it was a couple thing. But not. Let me recall the last time that Hubby and I went for a movie.......... Aha, that was a year ago, during CNY celebration, we left both kids (Mei was still a nursing baby) behind and watched a HK movie (72 Tenants) in Lido Orchard... actually, not as far back as I thought.

Ok. We actually went for a movie under the star at the open green in front of Asian Civilisation Museum, for the whole family, Wong family, Ping's family, and Ling's family. Planned it to be a movie night with fine wine appreciation under the moon with Despicable Me, a cartoon for kids. However, we enjoyed ourselves too much at the Pizza Hut at Funan IT mall. By the time we reached ACM, we can barely find any unoccupied space. The little ones did watch the movie, for about ten minutes.

We sipped wine, tasted cheese from Holland, crackers and chit chat. Wong family is going to a Caribbean Cruise this weekend!

I took Mei for a walk along Singapore River. She happily recognised the boat that she took before, insisting there is fish in the river, not that I can see. Later, Angelina and Dou Dou were bored as well, and the daddies was bringing them to Fullerton Hotel to see the koi. I trailed along, reckon that Mei would love to see the koi. She did, and fascinated by the revolving door, as well as the live violin performance at a corner of the hall, though Mei probably the only one who paid attention to the music. She probably indeed has a gift for music?

Anyway, the most enjoyable moment came when Angelina and Dou Dou played Mummy and Daddy, and Mei voluntarily became the Baby. The bigger 2s enjoyed themselves with a story line of how Mummy and Daddy sayang sad Baby, how Mummy and Daddy go to work, and how Mummy and Daddy brings Baby to playground, etc. For mei, I doubt she understands her role completely (if she does, I would imagine she prefers to be in role at peer level maybe), but she was happy to play along cooperatively.

Mei is a sweet girl who knows sharing and taking turns very well, not an easy trait at this age. Think I am falling in love with my daughter day by day...

周日和几家朋友相约去看露天电影，想象可以在星光下的草地上野餐，喝红酒，品芝士，小朋友们可以自娱自乐看动画片。可是吃太长时间的披萨，很享受和妈妈们闲话。注意：都是爸爸们在照顾孩子。呵呵，我们周围的模范爸爸们还真是不少呀！

到了博物馆门前的草地上时，已经座无虚席了。在靠近河畔的角落铺下席子，零食和酒水散落一地。孩子们认真地看了10分钟的电影。

我和妹妹在河畔漫步，她显然记得上次坐船的经历。喜欢这张妹妹的侧影，以Fullerton酒店为背景，好像是六星级，建筑是由当年殖民时代的邮政局改建的，所以保留了维多利亚风格。

后来，妹妹和善玄豆豆去酒店里看锦鲤。大厅里的小提琴演奏让妹妹停下了脚步，小家伙的音乐天赋比妈妈好太多（妈妈太差！）后来大家玩过家家，两小无猜的善玄和豆豆自然是妈妈爸爸，妹妹借过去当小宝贝，不亦乐乎。

瀚今呢？回来的路上看到瀚今和爸爸在桥上远远看电影，一直是在看电影的吧？
