The rain is pouring heavily outside my house. I switched off the air conditioner as the temperature is nice and cold already. I always love it when it rains. I like sitting and listening to the noise it made when it hit the roof and window. I love to see it pouring outside and know that I am warm and safe inside.

What a perfect Sunday.

This morning, it was warm and sunny. The whole family went for a swim in our regular sport club and meet our old family friends. It was already good to be under the sun and surrounded by water so to have old friends and their kids with us was like an additional bonus.

The couple and us went to the same kindergarten, elementary, junior high and senior high together. Husband and I started dating each other 2 years earlier than when they started to see each other. We were always part of the same crowd who went to see the music show, soccer game and also regular movie goers. And when Mika born 2 days earlier than their eldest daughter - Diany, we knew that we will spend lost of time together and watching the kids grow together. And so there we were. Two families with young kids having fun together. What can be more fun than that?

Pascal hit the water and paddling right away. I have always been amazed with this little guy natural reaction towards water. Mika, as usual, needed a lot of encouragement before daring him self to take the plunge. Diany was good in water, and little Ditya was very brave paddling around with his little floater. Rany, who is 5.5 months pregnant, does not look pregnant at all whereas her husband, Ferdy, look even more pregnant than her. Ha!

We swam for about an hour when the sky begun to turn grey. So we stopped. I scooped Pascal out and bathed him in the near outdoor shower. Mika next. It took a little longer for me to bath and not in the outdoorshower of course (mind you!) and the crowd in bathing room delayed me a bit.

When we reached home, I felt so hungry I felt that I could eat a horse. So here I am with contented stomach having such a relaxing time watching the rain whilst Pascal asleep with hubby and Mika played with his nanny. Oh and did I mention that I have finish packing for my trip to KL tomorrow? I don’t think life can get any better than this…
