Papa and mama were away from Gwendolyn for a few days since last Wednesday (5 April 2006). They went back to Hong Kong to settle some family matters. Mama was worried that Gwendolyn will look for her and cry and urged papa to call grandma to check.
Saturday noon (8 April 2006), finally, it was the right time to call, Gwendolyn casually said "papa, mama" and "papa, mama" and then she said "bye bye" and walked away from the phone. Mama was a little sad, as she didn't show any sign of missing her. So papa and mama assumed that she was fine and didn't call again until papa went to pick her up for school on Monday (10 April 2006), whilst mama was at an offsite meeting.
When papa picked mama up from the offsite meeting, papa told mama that Gwendolyn actually missed something whilst staying with grandma. On the first night, she woke up in the middle of the night, sat up and looked around, looking a little lost. Grandma offered her milk and she was fine to sleep again. However, she has been sleeping early and waking early AND been waking up in the middle of the night for milk. I supposed asking for milk was a sign of "comfort". Oh well, at least she felt at lost when papa and mama were away. Phew, what a relief!
We went to pick her up, but she was already asleep. But when we reached home, mama put her into her baby cot, she opened her eyes, surveillanced around. She showed a big bright smile and told mama: Lyn Lyn room. Then rolled over and slept again. She's happy to be HOME and back to her own BED!
