Leaving on a Jetplane

Because of my father's illness, my mother asked if I would be able to bring Ian home to stay for a while. I counselled with Pat about this. Although it will be hard for him, he agreed that we could go home to Taiwan. I feel very bad to leave hime at home alone, but knowing this is what I need to do at this moment for my parents.

Ian hasn't had the chance to meet my parents yet. And he is their only grandchild. My parents can't wait to see him. Mother even called me couples days ago telling me that she dreamed that we are already home.

One thing worries me a lot is I don't know how is Ian going to act during the trip. He never had a long trip yet. And it will take 2 hrs to go to L.A. and the other 13 hrs to go to Taiwan from L.A.. I tried to prepare everything that he will need in my backpack. Hoping those will comfort him during the trip. But..... We should see.

Sad Note

The past few weeks has been relatively rough for me considering that Carolien and Ian will be going back home for a few months to help with her parents and to let them meet little stinker here. The most time we have been apart since we have bene married was little over two weeks, this will be upwards of 4 months that she will be gone this time. I know she will be fine over there, same for Ian, i guess Fatherly worries tend to kick in whether you want them to or not. But nothing i can do about that. Not sure if Ian even suspects that he will soon be in a new contry with new people. One thing is for sure, he will be happier to be around people that will be relatively the same size as him ^_^(I'm soo dead for that comment) I'm looking forward to hear how the trip went with him.

奕凱不理爸爸媽媽

7/28凌晨，因為小藍先生一整晚都翻來覆去的，我終於爬起來問他：
" 你還好嗎？"

" 不好，我下腹痛，痛到睡不著！" 小藍先生回道。
於是我們打電話給我婆婆，看看她知不知道該怎麼辦。
那時，是凌晨3點半。

婆婆三更半夜被我們挖起來，所以，根本沒聽清楚我們在說什麼，整個根本是雞同鴨講，所以沒幫助。我們決定繼續睡覺，明天一大早就去看醫生。

隔天，當我問小藍先生什麼時後要去醫院，他說：
" 現在不痛了，所以沒關係啦！"

但是，在接下來的2小時裏，他又開始覺得疼痛，並且每當要起身時都很痛苦。因此，我下的最後通牒，給他2個選擇，看看是現在馬上去看醫生，或是下午我去上班時去看。他決定馬上就去。剛好我也要去上班了，所以便請婆婆來我們家幫我們照顧奕凱。

下午，在上班時突然接到小藍先生的來電。
" Caroline,你現在趕快回來，我在醫院。"

晴天一個大霹靂！在醫院做什麼？

" 我盲腸炎要開刀，手術排在4:30，妳趕快過來！"

我嚇了一跳，馬上跑去跟經理說我要早退。

我甚至沒時間回家換衣服，匆匆忙忙的就到醫院去了。雖然不是什麼大手術，也是要在醫院過夜的。所以奕凱便讓婆婆照顧了一天一夜。其中，我回了一趟家去換衣服和帶一些需要的東西，但是，其實是為了回去送奕凱上床睡覺。他從來沒有晚上跟我們分開過，所以不知道他會有什麼反應，爲了讓他能好好睡，所以回去一趟。

婆婆跟我說，凱凱好像感受到有是發生。因為傍晚時，他爬到門邊，一邊手捶著門一邊叫媽媽。唉唉，聽了好心疼，可憐的寶貝。

隔天，小藍先生出院回家，第一件事就是去婆婆家接奕凱。結果，不管我們怎麼叫他，他正眼都不看我們一眼。我知道他在生氣，因為他昨天晚上沒有看到我們。真的，他足足有差不多一小時不看我們，也不跟我們笑，也不跟我們玩耶！真傷心！小朋友真是敏感的很，尤其是他週遭的事，不能馬虎的！
