Thankful

The in laws are leaving this saturday, it’ll be quite sad not having them around anymore. They’ve been really helpful by taking care of the house and most importantly cook! Lina’s mom is a good cook, I’m really spoiled with good homemade dishes for few weeks, which explains why I gained 5 kilos during this period of time.
Next week will be quiet in our house, not in terms of sound, as I’m pretty sure baby Jet will still be screaming for food, but in terms of numbers. Hm, at least, I will be able to use the other room for study room or something (and I do need to study!).
I guess I’m thankful that our parents did come and helped us. Sure there were misunderstandings and unmet expectations, but overall they did help us more than they troubled us. Sometimes I also think we take for granted the fact that the relationship between my parents and lina, me to lina’s parents and our parents are good, I’ve heard enough bad stories about in laws not getting along with each other or with their children, to make me thankful that this is not the case with our family.
It would be good to have them live in Sydney one day (and I hope my parents would want to migrate to). Until then take care and we’ll see each other again next year, when we take our a
ual pilgrimace to mother land.
